The show focused on a 4-foot-tall, purple alien from the Horsehead Nebula named Widget who could shapeshift (usually by spinning like a top into different forms, in early episodes he seems to still be getting used to his power). He and a group of young, human friends; brothers, Kevin, Brian and their teenage sister Kristine, would go through a number of adventures to protect the natural environment from those who wish to plunder or harm it. Later on they were joined by (fellow shapeshifter) Half-Pint, Widget's mischievous, overly-curious, hyperactive cousin. Widget is frequently accompanied by the Mega Brain, an extremely intelligent but somewhat clumsy being who appears as a floating head (with a transparent cranium) and floating hands.
A Blog dedicated to bringing back those wonderful memories of childhood by bringing you videos of all of the great programmes we loved as children! The blog is named after the 'famous' Broom Cupboard that many of the shows were broadcast from. Let the reminiscing commence!
