The Treacle People (1996)
The Treacle People was a children's television programme shown on CITV in the United Kingdom, from 3 May 1996 to 25 July 1997. It only had two series, each with 13 episodes. In a similar vein to other shows by the same writer, the humour worked on two levels for younger and older viewers.

In 2023, the series was remastered, with full episodes posted on the show's official YouTube Channel.
