CBBC - Funky Fables, The King's New Clothes

A king enlists his tailor to create an extravagant outfit for a grand ball.

Animated fairy tales. A king enlists his tailor to create an extravagant outfit for a ball. The tailor fashions it from Aladdin's magic carpet.

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.

Familiar stories become intertwined with modern-day reality as Goldilocks and the Ginger Bread Man rob the Three Bears of the kingdom's porridge stash; the magic mirror becomes fed up with people's vanity and sets off on a road trip of personal discovery; the handsome prince makes the terrible mistake of cutting down the enchanted forest to make way for a motorway to race his cars; the kingdom is invaded by a horde of wandering cheesy singers, and even the big bad wolf is forced to become a vegetarian. 

In this story, an emperor is visiting a king for a royal ball and the king enlists his tailor to create an outfit to upstage the extravagant emperor. Everyone is excited about the ball. The wolf and a pirate captain are out to create chaos and steal the emperor's jewels. Aladdin arrives on his brand new magic carpet trying to impress all the ladies. He leaves his carpet to be washed with Widow Twankey, who unwittingly sells it to the royal tailor, who in turn uses it to fashion the kings latest outfit. The emperor makes his grand appearance at the ball in the nude. How will the king's outfit top that? Easy, if it is made from a magic carpet that can catch fire, stretch and become invisible!
