Being American, I never watched this show as a kid. I stumbled upon this accidently last year while looking for something else, and though I'm much much older than the target audience, and have no nostalgic claim to it, I have to say I really enjoyed it! This is my second time watching it through, and might not be my last. I've always loved shows, books, movies, Etc. dealing with people being brought into magical worlds, and that probably won't change.
Finally, Closure! I remember loving this when I was a kid. Looking back on it, this really contributed to my lifelong love of books; they went to a magical world, but the real 'magic' was reading!
I love it when the Keepers chant the spell and put the last veeton in place :-) Thanks *so* much for uploading Moosey - you are a star. Awesome series for all us 80s kids!
If I was Scott & Amanda I'd be gutted that I was never going to see Boris again! He's such an awesome Character and they never even got the chance to say goodbye to him properly (Boris & Charn are both my favorites)! Oh well, all good things must come to an end I suppose. I love this show to bits! I could watch this over & over again & I'd never, ever get bored of it. If there ever was living proof of what kids TV SHOULD be like ths is it. Thanks for Uploading all the Episodes. :D
This brought back some fond memories, thanks for posting. That caterpillar was a greedy little shit though - it ate everything in sight, sprouted wings and buggered off! Maybe none of the Pelemots learned to read cos they were always wasted on the 'Special Pelemade'. They were about to get the kids to do shots, probably best that they went back to school!
I loved watching this show when I were little in school and I just found it again and still love it and I have to admit I cried just now that it's finished so thanks for uploading this and bringing back those happy memories.👍😊
marvellous. :) i watched at least some of this at school when i was about seven (when it would have been new, it appears) but my memories were patchy; the story has definitely stood the test of time, production values notwithstanding. it's great to have been able to see the whole story, and to enjoy Brian Aldridge from The Archers being a moaning (but ultimately heroic) mouse. :) thank you so very much for uploading the series. :)
this brings back memories i haven't seen this for years we used to have to watch this at primary school i loved it, must be atleast 15 years since i've seen it
justin lee colins should do bring back the cast of through the dragons eye!!! loved this programme, used to watch it in primary school but i never got to see the ending its been bugging me ever since!!.... ime now 26!! lol
Gosh, I loved this show so much! First watched it year 3! I remember at break - or "play-time" back then - me and my friends would play this! I was always Boris because he was my favourite! A million Thanks for uploading this! :-)
Thank you so much Moosey - brought back so many memories. I remember being obsessed with this. They would show it on alternate years so I saw it a few times. I think I got my mum to tape it when I was at school! I still remember so many details it's amazing, like the kids getting the small Veetons at the end. I'm a 27 yo man now but this brought a tear to my eye at the end and I'm not ashamed! What a show.
The only thing I could remember for years was the theme song, and now I've seen it all again. Ah, memories. This was the best bit of Primary school, this and another program about some Alien sent to Earth to find some mini comet or something. Got to find out what that was next.
God this brings back memories from when i was about 8 lol. My whole school had to watch it all day in the hall because they couldn't be bothered to teach us :L
For some reason, I remembered/expected a reappearance from Charn. Oh well, still cool. They should not only do a big budget blockbuster movie of this, they also need to do a sequel. True... it might be a tad late for a sequel... but the movie NEEDS to be made by Peter Jackson - NOW.
There is one thing about this series that does puzzle me a bit. No one is credited as being the director in any of the episodes. There obviously had to be one but I don't understand why whoever did it wasn't credited as the role of the director is one of the most crucial. I've checked on the series' IMDB page and, even there, no one is listed as having that role. Curious.
@chibirosa Don't worry, he later left Pelamar and went on to become Mayor of London. He doesn't look quite so cute now, and clearly has been on the "special pelamaid" too much. Charn also went to London and took over leadership of the Tory party and is now Prime Minister.
Personally I think that they should make another series where palmar is in trouble and Scott, Jenny and Amanda need to save it again but as grown ups or maybe if they have kids it would be their turn
One thing they needed to tie up at the end was that the Keepers can read now and can therefore understand the Book of the Veetacore. Right at the beginning Gorwen says that the Book of the Veetacore (covered in cobwebs) relates how to care for the Veetacore, but the keepers cannot read it. In the scene in the pool we see Doris polishing the Veetacore rather vigorously and Boris practising his cricket skills right next to it, the implication being that they damaged it in some way and caused it to explode. The whole mission of the programme was literacy - the Keepers are now literate and can learn how to look after the Veetacore. It seems odd they missed this message. Perhaps it was edited out due to time constraints.
The ending. They found they had three Veetons back with them. So Pelimar dies now because three Veetons have been taken away? The Veetacore not complete now?
No because the book stated how many veetons made up the Veetacore and all of them were accounted for when the Keepers did the final incantation and put in the last veeton. Also none of the veetons in the Veetacore were that small.
FUCK ME, THAT WAS GOOD - much love for the upload. This was the personality shaper for my childhood into adulthood. Much better than the moronic stuff they show now. There's no adventure, or epic journeys anymore. Just technological and futuristic braindead nonsense.
what would it cost to make this? - backdrops, £80 - props, £3 - actors, negligible - lighting, £300 all shows should have their budget capped at £700! damn you for uploading these, little moosey.
Consider yourself lucky, watched it in Primary School year 3 and didn't let us watch past episode 3. It became my weekly fix! Now i'm 23 and i'm gonna sit and watch them all back to back tomorrow. North or South, East or West, it's sad... A 23 year old watching this, it's bad... Look bravely at my fucking girlfriend she's like WTF
I love it. all that effort to find the veetons and save Pelamar, and then right at the end they've fucking nicked some of them to take back to school with them! oh well I suppose you'd get a few quid for them on ebay!
Because like everything else in Pelamar he is fading and dying. The other Keepers are paler too. Notice how they are all brighter and back to normal when the Veetacore starts to work again at the end. At 4:17 Scott says “You’re orange again, Boris!”

at 4:16 they repower the veetacore and jump around and say we done it. Jenny says your orange again Boris and Doris is also purple again. it was becasue they where in a fade zone.
