Through The Dragon's Eye (episodes)

This is a list of episodes of "Through The Dragon's Eye" (a ten-part BBC Look and Read educational children's fantasy television prgram). Each episidoe was about 20 minutes long. During the opening credits of "Through the Dragon's Eye" a book with the same title opened at a specific "Chapter" (e.g. Chapter 1: The Dragon from Pelamar).

Chapter 1: The Dragon From Pelamar

Three Children (Jenny, Scott and Amanda) pass through a mural they've been painting on a wall and find themselves in the magical land of Pelamar. There Gorwen the dragon tells them that the "life source" of Pelamar, the Veetacore has exploded. He then asks for their help to re-build it. They then travel to the Veetacore House and meet the Veetacore Keepers, Boris, Moris and Doris. The episode ends with Amanda finding out that 3 veetons are missing.Fact|date=July 2008

Chapter 2: Flight to Widge

Gorwen the Dragon believes that the missing Veetons must have fallen beyond the mountains of Pelamar into the strange land of Widge. Amanda, Scott, Boris, Rodey and Gorwen set off (flew) to find the lost veetons and the quest begins. Jenny stays behind with the other two Veetacore Keppers, Doris and Moris to help them read a book on how to put the Veetacore back together again.

Boris and Amanda crash landed into a "high fade zone" of Widge and had to leave quickly because Rodey (a giant talking mouse) shrunk. When the air got too thin for Boris and Gorwen to fly through the search party landed at Border Camp in Widge. The Widgets (the native inhabitants of Widge - small squirrel-like animals) let them stay for the night. In the morning, they helped Scott and Rodey which road they should take (Rodey could speak "Widgen" - the language of Widge).Fact|date=July 2008

Chapter 3: The First Veeton

With the Widgets as their guides, the search party set off through the Woods of Widge. Jenny tries to contact Gorwen on a videophone to ask whether Boris took a "veetarod" with him (a long, thin instrument the Keppers used to locate Veetons with). Scott starts to suspect that the Widgets are not all that they seem, when Boris falls into a quagmire, which they could have avoided if the Widgets hadn't covered up a sign saying "Danger! Quagmire!". Rodey the mouse goes off in a huff, and the others leave him to catch up with them. The veetarod (which Boris had taken with him) worked and led the party to a huge tree (unfortunately the door into the tree was locked).Fact|date=July 2008

Chapter 4: Word Magic

The Widgets have hidden the first Veeton inside a huge book tree. Boris and Amanda manage to unlock it and enter it in search of the Veeton, while Scott and the dragon Gorwen search for Rodey, who is still missing. Boris and Amanda follow some signs to the library. Inside Boris solves a clue, and found the first veeton. The kindly Book Tree lets Boris take some books with him for when he can read. They find the way out and try and contact Doris with the news, however Doris never replies. The credits roll up on Doris with a huge look of shock and absolute terror on her face.Fact|date=July 2008

Chapter 5: Clues in the Snow

With the help of the veetarod, Scott and Gorwen found Boris, Amanda and the first veeton in a gravel pit (the exit of the Book Tree). Then it started to snow. Scott finds a "snowflake clue", which tells them to go to Ash Rock. They set out through the snow, however almost as soon as they set off, the Widgets corner them and engage them in a snowball fight. After the fight, which everyone enjoys, Scott, Boris and Gorwen find that the Widgets have taken the veeton and Boris' rucksack, and that they have kidnapped Amanda. Gorwen sets off to find them, while Boris and Scott continue to Ash Rock.

Meanwhile at the Veetacore House, we find out why Doris is not replying to Boris' message. Charn, the Evil One, an exiled Pelamot, has returned to try and take over Pelamar. Boris can only see the back of Doris' head in his videophone, and therefore thinks Doris is simply being rude when she cuts him off. At the Veetacore House, Charn reveals his plan. When the veetacore is mended, he will chant the spell- which must be chanted as the last veeton is fitted- in his way- with malevolant words rather than the kind and hopeful ones at the back of the book. Jenny at first stands up to Charn, refusing to mend the Veetacore for his purposes, but he scares her into obedience by melting Frug, Morris' pet caterpillar, with his magic hands- if he points at something and keeps his hand on it, a jet of green light shoots out of his hand and melts the object he is pointing at. He threatens to melt Morris as well, but Jenny decides it would be safer to help him after all. Doris tries to contact Boris as discreetly as possible, but Charn sees her at the last minute, and melts her.Fact|date=July 2008

Chapter 6: Jenny's Scarf

Amanda chases the Widgets who stole Boris' rucksack (with the veeton in it). She rescues it and in doing so, finds Rodey, but they find themselves lost in the snow. Boris and Scott found another clue at Ash Rock. They leave a sign for Amanda and Gorwen to follow. The veetarod then leads them up to the top of a mountain. When they were about half-way up, some rocks hit Boris on the head. On of the rocks wasn't a rock at all, it was a veeton. Gorwen catches up with Amanda and Rodey and they continue up to the top of the mountain, where they treat Boris' head and contact Jenny again.

At the Veetacore House, Jenny persuaded Charn to let Morris knit her a scarf. She continues to read the book for Charn (who cannot read) and re-build the Veetacore. When the Search Party contact Jenny, she holds up Morris' scarf. On the scarf are the words "HELP! CHARN!" Gorwen decided to return to Pelamar alone (with the two veetons). He left Rodey, Amanda, Boris and Scott to find the last veeton by themselves.Fact|date=July 2008

Chapter 7: The Waterfall of Words

"No-one can face Charn and live. Only Gorwen has a chance... "

During the night, the search party pitch a tent and spend the night at the top of the mountains. During the night, two troublesome Widgets sneak into the tent and steal Boris' map of Widge. They rip the map up, leaving Boris, Amanda, Scott and Rodey alone with no "map, no time and no words to help" them. Suddenly, a waterfall of words appeared gushing down the mountainside, giving them a clue as what to do next.

Meanwhile Gorwen made his way back through Widge by night. He appeares outside the Veetacore House, where he is seen by Jenny (and by Charn)! Morris goes out the back door of the House to try and tell Gorwen.Fact|date=July 2008

Chapter 8: The Great Battle

Gorwen had returned to the Veetarod House, where Charn was waiting for him. Moris tried to warn him, but was zapped by Charn. There was a great battle. Charn was eventually beaten (forever). (Charn had already been beaten once by Gorwen and as a result was banished from Pelamar).

After the battle, Gorwen knew he still had time to save Moris, Doris, Frug and the rest of Moris' pets that Charn had melted, even though he, himself was becoming weaker and weaker. Doris then sent a message (Charn beaten but Gorwen fading. Hurry!) to Scott, Rodey, Amanda and Boris. Then Rodey found a shortcut (tunnel) through the mountains.Fact|date=July 2008

Chapter 9: Danger on High

Rodey rescues the veetarod which had fallen down a deep chasm in the tunnel. The veetarod led them up to to the top of the mountain. Then Boris realised that the Widgets had taken his bat. Amanda persuaded Boris to swap some of the books that the Book Tree had given him for the bat. The Widgets agreed.

At the Veetacore House, the Veetacore was still unfinished. Frug meanwhile had become a very large cocoon and Gorwen had faded so much he was almost invisible. Jenny tried to conatct Boris to tell him to hurry up. Scott and Amanda spot the last veeton balanced on a tree which has fallen over, wedged between two cliffs.Fact|date=July 2008

Chapter 10: The Final Page

Scott, (with the help of the Widgets)! manage to rescue the last veeton. Boris, Amanda and Scott then start the long treck down to the bottom of the mountain after thanking and waving to the Widgets who made a banner for them out of a picnic cloth, which said "Goodbye! Good Luck!"'.

Meanwhile Doris and Morris fit the penultimate piece of the Veetacore and wait for the Party to return with the last veeton.

Borris, Amanda and Scott continue through the Woods of Widge until they reach Border Camp (the camp they stayed at, on the edge of Pelamar, with the Widgets when they first arrived in Widge). Boris pulled out his magical flying bat and flies home to Pelamar with Scott and Amanda clasping onto the bat with him and start to fly home.

At the Veetacore House, Doris, Morris and Jenny gather round a cracked wall and mearsure the distance. they are convinced that it is getting bigger (presumably because the Veetacore is still unfinished). A short while later after Boris is shown encouraging his bat to go faster Jenny measures the crack again, while Doris and Morris are asleep with Frug. Gorwen had almost vanished now, he was so pale.

The Search Party crash-land in Pelamar, miles away from the Veetacore House. To get to the House, Boris makes his cricket bat into a skateboard. They burst into the Veetacore House, on top of Doris (who had just declared that she didn't believe that they were coming). They take out the Veeton and look for which way up it is susposed to go. Jenny looks in the book (which told the Keepers how to fix the Veetacore), however she finds that Frug had eaten the last page.

Just then Frug erupted from his cacoon, revealing the last four words of the missing sentence in the book on each of his four wings. The Veetacore Keepers and the children work out what the senatnce is and the last Veeton was placed (by Morris, Doris and Boris) into the Veetacore, while chanting the spell. The Veetacore glowed and hummed causing Gorwen to come back, Rodey to return to his normal size and the rest of Pelamar to fill with life again.Fact|date=July 2008
