When inappropriate gifts begin to appear under pillows, the faith of a town's children in the normally reliable tooth fairy begins to wobble. Added to that is the odd behaviour of the new dentist, Miss Root (Emily Harrigan), whose favourite sweet could well be gummy bears. Maternal orphan Alfie (Sam Varley) has a bad case of dentophobia, but teams up with schoolmate Gabz (Georgia Grant-Anderson) and together they drill into the problem. The first half (just 40 minutes) sets up the characters and demonstrates the versatile set, but only a localised gag about an Irish brand of crisps and a puppet cat can get much of a reaction out of the subdued audience.
