Animation featuring audience participation. Well-known folk stories and fairy tales are given a modern twist, with viewers able to become characters featured in the story by uploading a picture of their face through the CBBC website. Familiar stories become intertwined with modern-day reality as Goldilocks and the Ginger Bread Man rob the Three Bears of the kingdom's porridge stash; the magic mirror becomes fed up with people's vanity and sets off on a road trip of personal discovery; the handsome prince makes the terrible mistake of cutting down the enchanted forest to make way for a motorway to race his cars; the kingdom is invaded by a horde of wandering cheesy singers, and even the big bad wolf is forced to become a vegetarian.
