Parent info: The Neighbourhood is recommended for ages under 5. It's a Story led show that should be listened to in order. Made in Ireland. Launched in 2022, it has 2 seasons.
Nettie and her friends are concerned when they learn that Mr Potts is handing over his shed in the allotments to Rosemary Crackers
Cocky and Denim go on an early morning tramp about the neighbourhood to see what they have been missing
Life isn't always fair, but Mr Potts has some good things to say to Nettie on the matter
Izzy is determined to find a way of dealing with unfortunate timing and bad luck.
Cocky gets his first guitar and decides what is important to him.
The new girl in school shows Lollie and her friends that there are many ways of being brave.
Nettie is content in her own company. Too content, perhaps. She likes to draw in the allotments at the back of her house. She befriends old man Potts, a widower, who may or may not be keeping an elephant.
Cocky introduces himself to a rhinoceros at a bus stop. He takes the animal to school for a show-off, but finds he has a problem. Ideas can be a jumble, and rules can seem harsh. An audience with An Uachtarán is essential.
Cocky is a fly-away boy - he can actually fly. Denim, the lonely new boy in the neighbourhood, makes a friend and learns that fly-away boys tend to come back, and with good reason.
Lollie wears her clothes inside-out. It has something to do with her mother being in hospital. Her friend, Mary-Mary wonders should she do the same.
Mary-Mary, Lollie and Sylvia go on a school trip to the gallery. They slip through a panel door marked PRIVATE, where they encounter Mr Thistle, an art restorer. How important is it to be a good observer?
Sylvia is concerned about her granddad. He has taken to sitting on a kitchen chair in the back garden. He has a plan, he tells her. He will need a go-cart and Sylvia's help.
Izzy wants to feel the earth rotate under the wheels of her otherwise stationary skates. The dentist she is avoiding turns out to be a fellow cosmic traveller.
Curious Izzy follows a flight of birds and that leads her to the coast. She meets Buffer, the school bully, but also Wally, a motorcycle Garda obsessed with birds. A person might investigate one thing, but find another.
A school trip is very much more interesting when a hippo joins in. Well, it is a science project, after all, and Izzy's grandma arriving on her new motorbike can be part of it.
'We've all grown up and moved away, Perhaps you live there now.' Interlinked stories of childhood read by Ciarán Hinds and written by Philip Davison. Coming soon.
