The Clangers

On a small blue planet, far out in space, live the Clangers — a family of pink, mouse-like creatures who communicate through gentle musical whistles. Their world is curious, inventive, and quietly joyful, filled with strange objects, unexpected visitors, and the soft rhythms of everyday life.

On a majestic little planet far out in space lives the enchanting family of the Clangers , a community of small pink mouse-like creatures who speak in soft, musical whistles. Their world is filled with wonder, invention, and friendship, where every day brings a new discovery beneath the starry sky.

In this enchanting Clangers story, read by Oliver Postgate, a mysterious gift from the Iron Chicken leads Tiny and Small on a musical adventure. With only two notes left, Small Clanger carefully plants them in the rocky ground, hoping they might grow again. To bring them to life, the pair must ask the Cloud for help — but only polite requests will do. When the rain finally falls, the notes blossom into beautiful Music Trees, their branches hung with fruit-shaped notes that sing in harmony.

In this classic Clangers story, read by Oliver Postgate, a strange accident leads to a brand-new friendship. While testing Major Clanger's rockets, the family accidentally strikes an Iron Chicken flying through space. Feeling sorry for the metallic stranger, the Clangers gather the scattered pieces and carefully put her back together. But once repaired, the Iron Chicken proves rather impolite, creating chaos on the Clangers' peaceful planet. Tiny Clanger, ever kind and patient, offers the visitor a copper-leaf necklace and gently explains how friends should behave.

Major Clanger is the father of the family, forever inventing all kinds of curious contraptions. Mother Clanger tends to their home with steady kindness and a comforting nature. Small Clanger, their adventurous son, is eager to explore and make marvellous discoveries, though his curiosity sometimes leads him into mischief. Tiny Clanger, the youngest, has a generous spirit and embraces everyone she meets with open arms.

When unexpected debris from outer space floats around their peaceful planet, the Clangers explore these strange arrivals with curiosity and wonder. Having trouble fishing, Major Clanger aims to build a boat fit to fish in space. As he tries to launch his boat made from scraps, it barely pops off the ground. To help her father, Tiny talks to the Music Trees about the situation. They graciously give Tiny some of their notes to create a music wheel. After the Clangers attach the new wheel to the boat, it begins to soar brilliantly. Now the Clangers can properly fish.

When Small and Tiny Clanger discover the Froglets — little orange aliens who live nearby — shivering from the cold, they decide to help. To warm them up, they fetch their favourite dish, blue string pudding. But the Froglets have ideas of their own. Instead of eating it, they wrap themselves up in blue string like scarves and feel much warmer. The Soup Dragon, curious as ever, pops up to see what's going on and mistakes the Froglets' new "clothes" for food.

When unexpected debris and creatures from outer space crash onto their peaceful planet, the Clangers explore these strange arrivals with curiosity and wonder. An astronaut arrives in his shiny spaceship on the Clanger's peaceful planet. Oblivious to the charming inhabitants of the planet he has visited, he spends his time gathering all sorts of rocks in his basket. Thinking rocks a curious thing to collect, the Clangers secretly replace the boring rocks with their delicious blue string pudding. The Clangers along with their friends kindly assist him with their gentle demeanour.

Uncovering a mirror in a quarry, Small Clanger becomes horribly obsessive about his discovery. While he proudly shows others his mirror, he refuses to allow anyone else to look at their reflection. Small Clanger's vanity causes him to be selfish and rude to his friends and family. Nobody wants to speak to him or give him green soup, the Clangers' favourite meal. Soup Dragon makes a deal with Small: he can have some soup if he allows her to look into the mirror. Small Clanger does not hold up his part of the bargain, so the Soup Dragon spills her soup over the reflective piece of glass.

Underneath the craggy surface of the Clangers' planet, Glow Buzzers make their wondrous hives on the walls of the caves producing delicious glow-honey. The Glow Buzzers, however, do not appreciate the Clangers taking their honey without their permission. They appreciate manors. Small Clanger finds himself craving the sweet taste of their honey. When he attempts to sneak some, the Glow Buzzers are naturally furious with Small Clanger's rudeness. In contrast, Tiny asks respectfully for a taste of Glow Buzzers' sweet honey, and they gladly offer her a portion.

Befriending a wandering Cloud, Tiny welcomes him to Mother Clangers' birthday party inside their quaint crater. Tiny performs a magic trick with the top hat making everyone erupt with laughter including the Cloud. Feeling terrible for the Cloud, Tiny storms outside with a step ladder to sit with her friend who hovers beside her. They both notice a magic top hat on the ground where little orange aliens called Froglets emerge from. They discover the hat can transport them to the Soup Dragon's cave.

While fishing about space, Small Clanger catches a floating teapot in his music boat. Having never seen a teapot, the Clangers attempt to discover the peculiar object's purpose. Small Clanger proposes it to be a soup jug to carry their soup from the soup wells, so he puts his idea to the test. After filling up the pot with delightfully delicious green soup, Small Clanger takes it back to the house. Out of curiosity, he decides to blow through the spout of the pot, spraying soup out of the top, making a dreadful mess.
