CBBC - Pinky and Perky, Axe Factor

The pigs arrive at the studio to find the whole place is deserted.

3D animated comedy series. Perky is fed up with being adored by millions of fans. When the pigs arrive at the studio, however, the whole place is deserted.

A 3D CGI animated comedy series for six to 11 year olds with two piggy brothers causing havoc in TV land. Pinky and Perky are a pair of piglets who have just been given their big break in showbiz: their own live children's television show full of crazy stunts, mad games, wild cartoons and top celebrity guests. 

Their show is loud, messy, funny and frequently out of control, which makes it very unpopular with the old guard of the TV station. One way or another, they're going to get those pesky pigs off the air! 

Perky wishes he wasn't famous and, to his horror, gets his wish! Perky is fed up with being adored by millions of fans and longs for a change from the predictable life of a TV megastar. When the pigs arrive at the studio, it looks as though Perky's wishes may have come true as the whole place is deserted. 

Finally, they come across Vera and Eric who tell them that The Pinky and Perky Show is a flop and that they have been replaced by Wilberforce who now has his own show! Have the brothers entered a parallel topsy turvy universe where they are nobodies and Wilberforce is a star? 

Luckily, it all starts to makes sense when KT calls to find out why they aren't at the Sunday team picnic. The penny drops - it's Sunday! Their day off! Tearful Perky is so relieved he swears never to take his fame and fans for granted again.
