CBBC - Funky Fables, Fire for Hire

A knight and the dragon he must slay discover they share a love of books.

Well-known fairy tales are given a modern twist. A knight discovers he has a lot in common with the dragon he has been sent to slay.

Animation featuring audience participation. Well-known folk stories and fairy tales are given a modern twist, with viewers able to become characters featured in the story by uploading a picture of their face through the CBBC website.

A bookish and gentle knight tries to woo a princess, but she tells him he must slay a dragon to win her heart. Resigned to his fate, he arrives at a lair where a mild-mannered, bespectacled dragon is reading a book over a nice cup of tea.

Our cultured and refined friends prepare to do battle, but quickly discover they have a lot in common. They both love the finer things in life: books, intellectual discourse and fine cuisine. A pact is formed as they join forces to break the mould society has cast them in, but can a dragon really change his scales - and can the knight really hang up his chain mail?
