What happens
William's Wish Wellingtons is an animated BBC children's television series produced by Hibbert Ralph Entertainment (who had previously created Spider!). It initially aired on BBC One from 25 October to 30 December 1994, then moved to BBC Two on 24 December 1995 for the season 1 finale and from 19 April to 31 May 1996 for the first seven episodes of season 2, and moved back to BBC One from 25 September to 13 December 1996 for the remainder of season 1. It was narrated by actor Andrew Sachs. It was later translated into Gaelic by Búrach Productions with a different narrator and shown as Botannan Araid Uilleim on BBC Two Scotland. It was shown in the United States as part of Cartoon Network's Big Bag (but, when Big Bag was remade by Yorkshire Television in the United Kingdom, it was replaced with Koki given that it was on ITV). The central theme of the series is similar to The Galoshes of Fortune (1838) by Hans Christian Andersen. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
