As the story starts, times are hard for The Treacle People. The once great treacle mines of Northern England are running dry and the treacle industry is in trouble. Things look bleak for Professor Baines-Pilling, inventor of the world's first treacle-powered engine and all the others who depend on the sticky stuff for a living. That's until Rosie and Wizzle, the local youngsters, enter the scene. Armed with nothing but a simple treacle-divining stick, can they save the village, or will the Treacle People come to a sticky end? Tune in to our YouTube Channel every week and find out for yourself!

Having discovered treacle in the mines, our sticky heroes also discover that they can't get out. However, thanks to the Professor, two old mine-carts and a sack full of bubbles, all is not lost...

Uncle Silas discovers that Rosie and Wizzle are better employed being unemployed,when they go in search of a job for the school holidays. The great treacle mines of Sabden roar into life, then all but roar out with a boggart in the works.

The Prof builds a balloon to map out a treacle-exporting route, with Bert the Boggart in the pilot's seat.
