Lu and the Bally Bunch

Lu declines a snack that turns out to be tastier than she expected, and later tries to lift Declan’s spirits, but he resists. At Shell School’s Art Time she clashes with Barnaby, feels hurt when nobody admires her new shoes, and becomes sad as her flowery friend begins to droop. She also struggles to grasp why Elodie is upset after Lu spoils her game and finds it hard to wait for her turn with a toy.

The show is a collection of bite‑size episodes – Wibble Blobs, Down In The Grumps, Counting Spaghetti, Lu’s New Shoes, Droopy Patrick, Horsefly Jumps and When’s My Turn? – each presented as a stand‑alone programme episode. The series follows the everyday adventures of Lu and her schoolmates, delivering simple, relatable moments in a light, conversational style. Across the various instalments, Lu finds herself in a string of modest dilemmas. She turns down a snack that later proves to be far tastier than she expected, then attempts to lift Declan’s spirits only to discover he isn’t ready for cheer. During Art Time at Shell School she clashes with Barnaby, and she feels disheartened when nobody seems to appreciate her new shoes. Her mood dips further when a flower‑themed friend begins to wilt, and she struggles to grasp why Elodie is upset after an accidental mishap spoils her game. Finally, Lu wrestles with the patience required to wait for her turn with a favourite toy. These episodes highlight Lu’s attempts to navigate small but meaningful social situations. Each vignette shows her trying to understand others’ feelings – whether it’s Declan’s reluctance, Barnaby’s disagreement, or Elodie’s disappointment – while also coping with her own insecurities about food, fashion and friendship. In the end, the series presents Lu’s everyday challenges as gentle opportunities for learning. By the time the credits roll, viewers see her grappling with patience, empathy and self‑confidence, all within the familiar setting of Shell School and her circle of friends.
