• Achoimre

  On a mission to Mars, Commander Space Cadet finds a Wee Martian and decides to bring him back to earth. On re-entry the spaceship crash-lands, and the Wee Martian lands in the Wrights' garden in the North of Ireland. There, though he makes friends with the birds and things of the garden, he is terribly homesick and Sergeant Wright, who has become his friend, agrees to try and return him to Mars. Protecting him from NASA, who want to experiment on the Wee Martian, she teams up with Space Cadet and together with the audience, they come up with a plan to send the Wee Martian home.
