Crystal Tipps and Alistair

50 x 5 minute episodes

Crystal Tipps and Alistair was a strange post-psychedelic animation with a heroine who looked like a mini-skirted, purple haired Bette Midler on acid. Crystal had buggy eyes and an omni-present inane grin. Alistair was a dog. Neither of them had any knees!

During the course of these groovy episodes the dynamic duo interacted with eggs, birds, butterflies, fish, seeds, a yo-yo and the postman. There was no dialogue and no narration. Just a funked-up chamber orchestra. This is REAL flower power, man! 

Crystal Tipps And Alistair was created by Hilary Hayton and produced by Q3, who also brought us Fingerbobs.
