Production notes
In every lamppost, in every country around the world, live a community of funny little creatures called the Lampies. Their aim in life is to spread the warmth of light across the world. Captain Brightlight is in command of lamppost HO32, and together with Contact, Charge, Burnout and lots of others, they look after the lamppost and struggle against the Roons. The Roons are the Lampies' archenemies; they want to plunge the earth into darkness because they absolutely hate light. Roons will do just about anything to cover the world in gloomy despair, and the Lampies are kept busy stopping them. The leader of the Lampies is Brigadier Big Beam, who works at the electricity power station. He has a very big job looking after everyone. Because wherever there is a lamp, there's a Lampy!
