This show is one of my children's favourites, despite being nearly 20 years old at the time I write this. The simple musical stories are fun and easy to follow as they show the beginnings and maturation of the friendship between a young boy and a spider who he finds in the bath.
It is rather old fashioned in style but that is a nice change from the more modern, clean lined, hectic paced, cartoons. The songs are generally good with some lines that will appeal to adults, as well as things that speak to the heart of being a child.
It is wonderful little show that lasted only one season (not unusual for Britain), which young children will find entertaining.
