This was a great show. I remember watching this on CBBC after school. The actor Mike Walling (now in Coronation St as Roy Cropper's nerdy friend) was in it and I think he played Billy Webb's father. He was in hospital with his leg in plaster and would be sat alongside a different person each episode. He would be telling the other person the adventures of Billy Webb and Alfonso Bonzo and we would see the action as told through his story. At the end of each episode, the 'other' would always ask a question "but what happened to the ...?", for example, and the reply would always be " I WAS JUST COMING TO THAT" and in that moment it would end, a cliff-hanger for the next episode. Mystical, magical, unusual and captivating, not to mention boasting a brilliant theme tune (available online). This should be repeated.
