​

Plot

Huxley Pig was a stop-motion animated children's television series from 1989 and 1990.

 

The main character, Huxley Pig, was always dreaming of adventure, exciting professions and encounters. At the start of each episode Huxley would be in his bedroom talking to Sam the squawking seagull and wondering about something. He would open his big suitcase of dress-up clothes, try something on and say, "Hmmm, I wonder". The picture would fade and be taken away into his daydreams for the rest of the story.

​

Characters

 

In the dream, Sam the Seagull would be able to speak, in a Cockney accent, and there were many other varied characters such as:



Vile Vincent, the vampire pig-butler
Horace, a hamster and something of a con artist
Cuddles, a fanged green beast
Sydney, a snake with a lisp
The adventures took Huxley and the gang to many places, as long as there was food nearby. Food was close to Huxley's heart.

 

What is curious about the show is that while Sam the Seagull is, as in reality, only able to speak English in dream sequences Huxley, who is clearly a pig, is able to speak in everyday.,
