Synopsis

Button Moon is a quirky, popular children’s television programme broadcast in the United Kingdom in the 1980s on the ITV Network. Thames Television produced each episode, which lasted ten minutes and featured the adventures of Mr. Spoon who, in each episode, travels to Button Moon in his homemade rocket-ship. All of the characters within the show are based on kitchen utensils, as well as many of the props.

Once on Button Moon, which hangs in “blanket sky”, they have an adventure, and look through Mr. Spoon’s telescope at someone else such as the Hare and the Tortoise, before heading back to their home on ‘Junk Planet’. Episodes also include Mr. Spoon’s wife, “Mrs. Spoon”, their daughter, “Tina Tea-Spoon” and her friend “Eggbert”. The series ended in 1988 after 91 episodes.
