Synopsis

Squiglet uses a round line to squiggle a garden gnome called Norman who's tired of fishing in his pond all day and wants an adventure. Squiglet squiggles the garden in which Norman lives and they set off to see what kind of adventure he can have.

It would be nice to find one nearby as Norman needs to be back at teatime for his pancakes! When Squiglet spots a rainbow, Norman thinks it's just the place for an adventure as rainbows often have pots of gold buried at their end! So Squiglet and Norman just need to get there. But when Norman hops over the garden fence, he lands straight in next door's compost heap!

Going over all the fences between here and the rainbow will take ages and Norman doesn't want to be late back for his pancakes. Squiglet has the answer - dig under the fences instead! He squiggles Norman a trowel and the gnome gets to work. But before long, a mole pops up out of the hole he's dug! She's digging her own tunnel towards the tasty scraps in the compost heap! It turns out her tunnel starts way over there by the end of the rainbow! She's very happy to let Squiget and Norman take a trip through it to their goal.

When they arrive, and Norman digs, he unearths a locked box. The pot of gold must be inside, but how's he going to get at it? The Squiggle Pad provides the answer with one squiggled key! But when Norman unlocks the box, the gold in the pot isn't quite what Squiglet had expected it moves around inside! Because this isn't solid gold it's golden honey! Which will be perfect to go on Norman's pancakes after a very exciting adventure!

Welcome to Squiglet's world. It's plain white, but it doesn't stay that way for long! With the help of a magical set of crayons called Squiggle Sticks, friendly monster Squiglet shows us how to draw colorful characters. When Squiglet and the viewers sing the magic words together, the characters leap off the page and come to life.
