When I was a kid, I always enjoyed reading picture books. Then, they turned them into a TV series on CITV. This was actually quite a good book-based cartoon. Wally is a guy in a red and white fleece with a dog dressed the same. Basically every episode, when he feels like it (obviously all the time), he would get his magic walking stick and create a vortex that would transport him to another world, e.g. stone age, spooky, under the sea, jungle, etc. Wizard Whitebeard would be around to see how he was using the walking stick or how he was in the adventure, and the villain (I can't remember his name) in the yellow and black fleece would always try to steal the walking stick. But the main part of the show (hence the title) was when the audience at home had to spot Wally in a freeze frame (because he disappeared for some reason), just like in the books. Very good!
