Ben and Holly Elf Tree Playset

Product Information

It is the time of the year for the blue moon which gives no fairy magic for one day of the year and also stops the Elf Factory's "Great Elf Engine" from working - and the fuel is magic. (Nanny Plum knows that the Elves hate magic, so she asks the Wise Old Elf why the Great Elf Engine is fueled by magic. The Wise Old Elf says that magic "has a low carbon footprint and it never stops working".)

A gang of squirrels appears at the Great Elf Tree determined to store acorns inside, but the Wise Old Elf has other ideas. The elf and fairy children learn how the rubbish left after a picnic can be recycled into new toys, and Lucy has a look around the Little Kingdom. The Fairy Mayor (voiced by Alexander Armstrong) is a character based on Boris Johnson, the former mayor of London and former prime minister of the United Kingdom. [5] He is Strawberry's dad. He does not like "big people" because they always step on fairies and elves. Ben and Holly want to play with Gaston the ladybird, but he is missing. Nanny Plum uses her magic crystal ball to retrace Gaston's steps and find his whereabouts.Buchanan, Kirsty (2 December 2012). "Boris Johnson has new role in Ben and Holly's Little Kingdom".
