Every night when his mum calls out 'Sleep Well Jamie', Jamie gets out of bed, picks up his magic torch and with his dog, Wordsworth, travels down a helter skelter into the magical world of Cuckoo Land. Here Jamie and Wordsworth meet some strange characters. Mr Boo, an absent-minded old gentleman, Jo-Jo, the 'odd job' man, Nutmeg, a rag doll, Officer Gotcha, the Cuckoo Land Constabulary, Strumpers Plunkett, Bulli Bundy and Wellibob. Together they have lots of adventures and Jamie's magical torch often helps to save the day. And all this before Jamie's mum discovers he is missing from his bed! With 39 fantastic stories to watch, take a ride on the helter skelter and join Jamie and Wordsworth on all three series of their exciting adventures in the magical world of Cuckoo Land. This is the first time the show has been presented as a complete collection on video. Made in 1976 by the Cosgrove Hall animation studios in Manchester, the studio that brought to us other classic shows like Danger Mouse, Count Duckula, The Wind in the Willows, Chorlton and the Wheelies and the BFG movie. The studio was a nurturing ground for creative talent and saw such legends as Bernard Sumner (Joy Division, New Order) and John Squire (The Stone Roses) working as animators in their studios. - Directors:
