Ben and Holly's Little Kingdom

In an effort to lift Gaston's spirits, the pair decide to give his cave a thorough cleaning, hoping it will cheer him up. Unaware that Gaston prefers his home exactly as it stands, their well‑meaning attempt ends up missing the mark.

Gaston the Ladybird is a programme presented as a single episode. It follows the familiar format of a short, self‑contained story centred on the titular ladybird and his friends. The series is built around simple, light‑hearted situations that aim to entertain a young audience. In this particular episode, two of Gaston’s companions set out to lift his spirits. Believing that a tidy environment will make their friend feel better, they decide to give his cave a thorough clean‑up. Their intention is purely to cheer him up, and they work together to straighten everything inside. Unaware of Gaston’s own preferences, the pair go about organising the space, sweeping away clutter and arranging items neatly. They assume that a spick‑and‑span cave will be a welcome change for him, not realising that his comfort lies in the way the cave has always been. When Gaston returns, he discovers the cave has been transformed. Rather than feeling uplifted, he is clearly not pleased, as he favours the cave exactly as it was before. The episode closes with the friends learning that sometimes, the best way to support someone is to respect how they like things to be.
