Ben and Holly's Little Kingdom

Nanny and the Wise Old Elf get into a debate over which of them puts in the most effort, each claiming they work harder than the other. To settle the dispute, King Thistle decrees that they swap jobs for a full day, forcing each to experience the other's responsibilities.

The episode titled “Nanny Plum and the Wise Old Elf Swap Jobs for One Whole Day” forms part of the Nanny Plum series. It is presented as a standalone programme, classified under the episode genre. The story centres on two familiar characters, Nanny and the Wise Old Elf, and unfolds within their usual setting. The central conflict arises when Nanny and the Wise Old Elf begin arguing about which of them puts in the greater effort. Their dispute escalates until King Thistle steps in, insisting that the only fair way to settle the matter is for each of them to take on the other's duties for an entire day. The king’s decree forces the two characters to experience each other's daily responsibilities. By swapping roles, Nanny is placed in the elf’s world, while the Wise Old Elf must manage Nanny’s tasks. This exchange is designed to give both a clear perspective on the amount of work the other regularly performs. Through the day‑long role reversal, the episode aims to resolve the original argument by letting each participant see the challenges faced by the other. King Thistle’s intervention serves as the catalyst for this practical test, offering both Nanny and the Wise Old Elf a chance to reassess their assumptions about effort and contribution.
