Wolves, Witches and Giants

Wolves, Witches and Giants, narrated by Spike Milligan, is a children's cartoon series of humorous adaptations of classic fairy tales, featuring a collection of villains including the wily wolf, a wicked witch and an enormous giant.

It was written by musician Ed Welch, based on an LP, also performed by Milligan.

Reruns ran on Discovery Kids (UK) until its defunct in 2007 and later, on CITV from July 2005.

It included adaptations of many tales such as Little Red Riding Hood, Sleeping Beauty, Hansel and Gretel, Cinderella, and The Three Billy Goats Gruff.
