Ben and Holly's Little Kingdom

In the Little Kingdom, a mysterious object that looks like a shooting star has landed. The Wise Old Elf interprets this as a possible sign of an alien invasion and becomes fearful. He worries about what the arrival might mean for the realm.

The Shooting Star is a short‑form programme presented as an episode. It falls under the broader category of television programmes and is identified by its title, The Shooting Star. The format is simple, delivering a concise story in a single instalment rather than a multi‑part series. In this instalment, the central figure is the Wise Old Elf, who becomes uneasy after an object that resembles a shooting star makes contact with the Little Kingdom. The sight of the falling object triggers his concern that the world may be on the brink of an extraterrestrial incursion. His apprehension centres on the possibility of an alien invasion, a fear that stems directly from the mysterious arrival of the star‑like object. The Wise Old Elf’s reaction is driven by the sudden, unexplained nature of the landing, prompting him to imagine that forces beyond the kingdom’s usual realm could be at work. The incident itself—an object looking like a shooting star crashing into the Little Kingdom—provides the catalyst for the Elf’s worry. It is this unexpected event that sets the tone for the episode, framing the narrative around the potential threat that the Wise Old Elf believes may follow the strange landing.
