The Amazing Adventures of Morph

How It All Began

Morph starts to write a book about his adventures using Grandmorph's word-processing machine.

The Day Nothing Happened

Morph has a game of football with the Very Small Creatures, then plays Hide and Seek with his friends.

Morph Plays Golf

Morph encounters an underground monster during a game of golf.

Morph's Birthday Party

Morph's birthday seems to have been forgotten, even Tony isn't very interested.

The Day Morph Was Ill

Morph is late getting out of bed, and Grandmorph diagnoses Hypercongestion of the Repertory Passages with Inflammatory Complications. Everyone tries to help out, but when Morph gets better they're all tired out and he has to wait on them.

Morph's Forgotten Dream

Morph wakes up after an amazing dream and decides to write it all down quickly. But by the time he has got the word-processing machine working, he's forgotten what happened.

Morph the Weakling

Morph and Chas discover that Delilah is stronger than they are, and they decide to try some exercises.

The Dog Show

Morph is training Nailbrush for the dog show. Chas decides to mess things up.

The Two Mountaineers

Tony has a nice cake ready for his tea- will he be able to save it from the intrepid Morph and Chas, who are determined to retrieve it from the high shelf?

The Double Decker Boot

Morph takes a double-decker mobile home, and starts a new life on the open road. He soon finds that it's no fun in the dark and the rain.

The Cowboys

Morph plays a game of cowboys with Desperate Dan McChas, which ends with a tin of paint being spilled. Order is soon returned by Sheriff Grandmorph and his partner Nailbrush.

The Day Morph Went Skiing

It's been snowing under Tony's desk. Folly and Delilah build a snowman that the Very Small Creatures try to knock over, Chas and Grandmorph go sledging, Gillespie makes a giant snowball, and Morph goes skiing and gets lost.

The Abominable Snowman

It's still snowing outside and Grandmorph tells Morph and his friends about the Yeti. Next day, Morph and Chas find strange footprints in the snow.

The Invisible Morph

Morph is having difficulty metamorphosing, and ends up turning invisible.

Anyone for Cricket?

Morph and Chas are having a game of cricket, but their bat and ball are confiscated when they accidentally knock Grandmorph off his skateboard. The pair then devise ridiculous schemes to retrieve the lost items.

A Swimming Pool in the Garden

Morph is tending to his garden on a lovely hot day, while Chas helps from his deckchair. As Morph waters the garden, the water drips through under the table. Gillespie's investigations into the cause of the 'leak' result in the complete destruction of Morph's garden. But the others soon find a suitable replacement.

The Strange Visitor

Morph finds an odd-looking, "exceedingly ugly" stranger sleeping next to his box one morning. The stranger seems to like to eat everything, including Morph's leg. Then the visitor's mother turns up to thank Morph for looking after her offspring.

A Game of Chess

One day Tony is late and Morph has to tell the story for the program by himself, after he's finished his game of chess with Gillespie. Morph finds that he can't read the book so he makes up his own story. Unfortunately, Morph's stories aren't quite as realistic as Tony's, as they involve a lot of flying and dragon slaying.

The Very Small Creature, Green

Grandmorph has invented a hot-and-cold-running-soft-drinks-machine, and everyone is trying it out. The very small creatures are carrying lots of bits and pieces for the machine, but the green one gets left behind. Morph and Chas start ordering him about and making fun of him. Finally Green gets fed up with being left behind, and Morph tries teaching him how to "morphalise".

GrandMorph's Beard

Delilah is desperately searching for her lost glasses, while Gillespie is cutting Grandmorph's hair. When Delilah spots her glasses caught in Grandmorph's beard she spins in him the chair, causing Gillespie to accidentally cut the beard off. Grandmorph is the most upset he's ever been and he strops off to bed.

The Babysitters

Folly is baby-sitting for a friend, but doesn't tell anyone about it. Morph and Chas's fighting causes the baby to start crying, and everyone has a go at calming him down. Morph decides that the best way would be to put on a show for him, so they all participate in the Circus Morph.

Morph Sticks With It

Morph finds one day that he can't open his box, and is puzzled by lots of pieces of paper lying around. He soon discovers that Chas has been playing around with the glue, but when the two start fighting they both have sticky problems.

Gobbledygook the Burglar

All sorts of odds-and-ends have been going missing from under the table, including Delilah's saw, Chas's cricket bat, Grandmorph's skateboard, and Morph's comic. Morph sets out to look for clues while Grandmorph sets up a burglar alarm, but the missing items may not have been stolen: they may have been eaten.

GrandMorph's Home Movies

Nothing much is happening today, so Gobbledegook plans to show pictures of his home planet and give a talk about it. Unfortunately no-one but the very small creatures understands what Gobbledegook is saying. After the interval the gang all watch Grandmorph's old home movies featuring Morph as a baby.

Morph and the Swoggle Flange

Morph gets himself some old bits of wire and has a go at dowsing. Grandmorph is mending the soft drink machine and takes out the all-important swoggle-flange for repairs. Unfortunately Chas mistakes the device for a rock cake and eats it. Morph goes on the hunt for the missing swoggle-flange with his dowsing rods.

The Magic Wand

Gobbledegook is sent to spend the day with the gang, and Morph- who should be clearing up the dressing up things- is charged with looking after him. Gobbledegook gets hold of a magic hat and wand and charges about creating chaos. Without meaning to, of course.
