宾波的魔桶

Bimbles Bucket was an animated cartoon shown on CITV created by Michael Jupp the creator of The Dreamstone and produced by Martin Gates Productions for HTV. It involved a young male animal (called Foxbits by some fans, as the main character and the other residents of Stiltsville were fox/rabbit hybrids with rabbit ears and fox brushes for tails) named Bimble having a bucket which could grant him wishes. A small green female called Teenie Weenie lived inside the bucket. A witch called Dolly Clackhanger would try to steal the bucket from Bimble, many times, for her queen, Kak. She usually sent her gang to steal it. They consist of two Sleazians from Sleaze City who look like punk rockers called Bilge and Oiler, who usually go around on motorised pogo sticks. Dolly also has an odd looking blue creature with green hair called Sploot, who is usually Dolly's guinea pig for her magical experiments. Queen Kak is also assisted by her tax collector Mudge, another Sleazian wearing a pork pie hat. He would rather perform scientific experiments instead of collecting taxes for the queen, and he dislikes Dolly and her magic. The show ran for 2 series between 1996 and 1997. The series was later repeated on the Sky Digital channel Pop. 宾波在救了一个陷到泥潭里的神秘的陌生人之后，作为答谢，那个人把戴在头上的桶送给了宾波。桶里面有一个守卫者，叫Teeny Weeny(意为“极小极小的＂)。宾波很快就发现这个桶具有魔力，它能带给他想要的任何东西，虽然只能维持24小时。但是这个魔桶也成了多莉(Dolly Clackhanger)梦想得到的对象，多莉是一个被村子流放的、充满报复心的、正在修炼的女巫。她希望利用这个魔桶的力量使自己成为真正的女巫。但是多莉不知道，她的两个新助手，比尔兹(Bilge)和奥尔勒(Oiler)，其实是那个黏胶女王卡柯(Kak)的仆人。他们是被派到多利身边，监视她的力量和对女王的威胁的。宾波发现，自己得到了魔桶，实际上意味着自己被指派为Stiltsville(注：Stiltsville是存在的，位于美国的美国的福罗里达州)和这儿的羊毛的守护者，而这儿的羊毛是全世界的神话故事的源泉。
