"3 Tales From a NEW TOWN."

Mary Mungo and Midge was the first almost realist pre-school children's programme. Far removed from the cosy villages of Trumpton and the dreamscapes of the magic roundabout, its location and context was a modern and hypertrendy innercity tower block and its environs...

Retro fans will however be pleased that it retains some pretty groovy and surreal elements, maybe because of John Ryan's smooth, rhythmic, flat-cut animation style, and the excellent lift-style theme and incidental muzak.

In each 15 minute episode Mary (bright young human), Mungo (long suffering dog) and Midge (troublesome flute playing mouse) leave their safe flat and get into bother in the big, wide, scary world, returning to safety only to have to negotiate the terrifying lift - mind those doors!
