Mortified follows the trevails of eleven-year-old Taylor Fry, as she copes with the general embarrassment of having parents, as well as being annoyed by her sister, jealous of her neighbour, and completely oblivious to her best friend's crush on her. The program inserts some fantasy elements into the otherwise straight comedy-drama by having Taylor speak directly to the camera, using elaborate fantasy sequences to explore her daydreams, and showing her over-active imagination as bringing seemingly inanimate objects to life.

Mortified was the last major work of television producer and screenwriter Angela Webber before her early death in 2007.

Mary Poppins takes two children through the chalk drawings on the pavement and into the story of King Cole and a Cat. In a battle of wits, facts and figures, both the children and King Cole learn that things aren't always what they seem and, sometimes, all it takes is a clever Cat to help you see the merry old soul within.

A Canadian-Australian co-production.
