         Fred's Shed

Fred's Shed

Synopsis:
Fred is a loveable old character who tends to spend time in his shed, whiling away the hours. He is untidy and forgetful and one day he rediscovers his old Teddy. Together they experience a range of adventures using usual shed implements and junk that happens to be lying around. He reminisces about playing cricket, imagines he is the imprisoned Count of Monte Cristo, becomes Fred Holmes when the lights go out and pretends he has found a deserted pirate ship. Fred forgets why he originally went into the shed but it doesn't matter as he feels he has spent a productive day, essentially playing.
