Microscopic Milton





Microscopic Milton is so small he lives in a clock on the mantelpiece in Mrs Witherspoon's house and only his friend Douglas, a shaggy dog, knows that he is there. I fell in love with Tony Garth's quintessential English children’s series and spent some time at the production company Splash working on creating a TV special for Microscopic Milton. Despite showing excellent potential and some wonderful early work on the premise, it sadly never made it into production. These story pre-production story sketches show some early gag ideas with a parrot… and a curious crab that’s spotted Milton inside a bottle.
