About This Program

"I'm Just Not Keen on Spiders" is a short programme presented as an episode in a larger series. The title hints at a light‑hearted look at a common fear, and the format follows a single, self‑contained story centred on two characters, Lola and Charlie. No additional production details are supplied, keeping the focus squarely on the narrative itself. The episode begins with Lola standing at her bathroom sink, toothbrush in hand, when she suddenly spots a spider perched in the basin. The sight of the eight‑legged visitor startles her, turning a routine morning routine into a moment of genuine alarm. The spider is described as terrifying, underscoring Lola's instinctive discomfort and setting up the central conflict of the scene. Charlie, observing Lola's reaction, steps in and gently persuades her to consider the spider as more than a source of fear. He encourages her to interact with the creature, suggesting that it might be harmless. Influenced by Charlie's coaxing, Lola gradually overcomes her initial dread and decides to keep the spider, effectively adopting it as a new, albeit unusual, companion. This resolution shows Lola moving from shock to acceptance, completing the episode's concise arc.
