The adventures of Pingu, the clumsy young penguin who is always up to mischief in his snowy world. His companions are his baby sister Pinga, his best friend Robby the Seal, his caring mother and his father who is the local postman. Pingu is enjoying a game of Tag with Pinga and he is determined to avoid being It at all costs. He hides from Pinga on top of the wardrobe and even dives under the ironing board to escape her. Mother and Father send them outside to play, but Pingu runs a long way off, giving Pinga the slip by climbing up an ice arch. But getting down again is another matter.
