In the Night Garden

The broadcast titled is an episode‑style programme that forms part of the Tombliboos series. It presents a self‑contained adventure, set within the familiar whimsical world that the Tombliboos inhabit, and follows the usual format of the show’s short, playful installments. In this particular outing the three Tombliboos hop aboard the Pinky Ponk, a colourful vehicle that promises a breezy jaunt. Their journey, however, quickly turns into a bit of a scramble as they try to steer clear of an encroaching tree. The characters’ attempts to dodge the obstacle provide the central action of the episode, with the tension built around whether they’ll manage to keep the Pinky Ponk on course without a collision. The entire segment is guided by the voice of Derek Jacobi, whose narration lends a gentle, story‑telling quality to the proceedings. His measured delivery ties the visual gags and the Tombliboos’ antics together, giving the short adventure a cohesive feel that fits neatly into the series’ overall charm.
