- Each of episode of Big & Small episode contains a great story, a meaningful song and audience participation. What kind of story, you ask? Well, a gripping one - of course - with action and adventure and setbacks and mishaps and a nice, satisfying ending. Most of the mishaps and misadventures are the result of Big & Small's different takes on life. Big is very big, careful, cautious, considerate and honest. Big sees things from on high, so he feels very much at ease with the world. Small is very small, quick, loud, exuberant and dramatic. For Small the world is a nonstop adventure. They see things differently, and they feel differently, and they react differently and all of that has consequences. Tolerance plays a huge role in the special bond of friendship between Big & Small. And the fact that humour conquers all is at least equally important. Big & Small laugh an awful lot. Every episode is about the problems and fun of living with someone who is smaller or bigger or slower or faster than you. Because opposites attract, and in this case opposites lead to great stories.

- Big has a cold. A really bad, stay-in-bed-and-sneeze-the-paintings-off-the-wall cold. Small offers to nurse Big although he is not one of life's natural carers. And Big is a demanding patient. When Big does a big blubbery sneeze into a handkerchief that Small is still holding, Small cries out in dismay. Ruby steps in to stop the friends from arguing and ends up nursing Big herself. Small, feeling totally unappreciated, announces that he is going to pack his case and leave but as he marches towards the door, he stubs his toe and cries out with the pain. It is the worst pain anyone has ever felt, ever, he tells Big. Big leaps out of bed to help Small and decides to nurse his little friend instead.
- Big wakes up one morning and thinks: something is missing from my house. While he is looking for this something there's a knock at the door. And in walks Small. Big's first ever visitor; looking to have fun. Big, excited to have a guest, shows Small the garden swing that's hanging from the apple tree. But zooming through the air on a big swing isn't a lot of fun for a Small, especially when he ends up with a smooshed nose. What is fun, however, is a small model car that Big brings out of his tool shed. Fun, you see, comes in different sizes. And watching Small race around the room makes Big realise that's what is missing from the house. A Small - and a friend. A best friend. And Small, too, has found his best friend and a home. When Small knocks on Big's front door, Big's life will never be the same again!
- Small sees a fish in the garden pond and immediately wants to put it in a bowl for a house pet. Big, who's busy building a boat, thinks that fishes are better off left where they are, in the water. Small, however, just knows that this fish will be the best pet ever and early one morning creeps down to the pond on a mission to bring him back to the house. Small finds the fish - but is suddenly dragged and yanked through the water by what is one ferocious aquatic animal! Small staggers back to the house, wondering if a worm would make a better pet. Small wants the fish in Big's pond for a pet - but the fish has other ideas!
- Big thinks that Small is creating a mess all over the house and invents a machine which tidies away all of Small's debris. Small, shocked, tells Big that the pile of dirty socks Big has just sucked into his machine is actually a scientific experiment and that the old red jelly lid is a model of the planet Mars! Small decides to walk away and find some place else to live in - and discovers, through a mouse hole, a neat little room where he builds a fort from a sofa and bounces on the bed... 'What is going on in here!' cries Ruby, the pink mouse, whose home it is. She is not impressed with the fort. Big intervenes to calm her down and decides that the best thing to do is build Small a space of his own where he can be - well, where he can be Small! Big and Small introduce themselves properly to Ruby. Small drives through a hole in the wall and discovers a mysterious room.
- Small wants the glorious apple that's hanging from the tree, even though Big tells him it's not yet ripe... But Small looks so sad that Big puts friendship above his knowledge of apples and picks the fruit. But 'Yuck! That's not an apple, that's a lemon!' is Small's reaction to the first bite. Big takes a bite himself to see if it really is that sour - and recoils with horror when a voice speaks to him from inside his mouth! He has swallowed something that lived in the apple! Small reaches in to free the trapped creature - who turns out to be a sassy but warm-hearted worm. She doesn't have a name but suggest they call her Twiba: The Worm In Big's Apple. And now Big and Small have a new friend out in the garden. Small asks Big to pick the juiciest apple on the tree - but the apple is home to a talkative green worm!
- It's the day of the month when Big walks off to collect the mail - and so the day that Small can be the boss of the house. But before Big leaves he hands Small a long, long list of things Small Shouldn't Do. These start off sounding reasonable (don't dance on top of the sink) but quickly become extreme: no music and no games. No fun! complains Small. Left alone, Small decides to tear up the list and have fun instead (which includes dancing on top of the sink). However, it's no fun having fun on your own and Small very quickly misses Big and wants him to come home. When Big does arrive back at the house he sees a sad-looking Small and realises that his list was far too strict. Small should be having a good time in the house. Before going out for the day Big writes a long list of house rules that Small doesn't like at all!
- Big decides to help Small by building him a teeny tiny itsy bitsy front door. Big is confused when Small tells him rather huffily that he likes the big door, that the big door is A-OK. Big sighs about not knowing what he's done wrong and looks through the small door with regret at apparently upsetting his friend. Uh oh. Big finds himself stuck in this narrow opening - and has to call out for help. Big realises that this is the first time he has ever asked Small for help - and that he should, of course, have asked Small if he wanted help with the front door before just going ahead. Small leaps to the occasion and, with judicious use of butter and pulleys, yanks Big free. Small admits that he knows Big only had good intentions with the door - and they decide to celebrate their friendship by going off to tickle the frogs. Big finds himself in a sticky situation when he looks through Small's new door!
- When Big is building his latest invention, a Sunshine Catcher, he loses the doohickey that is integral to the machine's operation. He sinks into a deep funk and lay on his bed fiddling with the pieces of a puzzle. Unknown to Big, Small had put the doohickey into his collecting bag of bright, shining objects, totally unaware that it was the actual, important doohickey. Small endeavours to cheer up Big by trying hugs and pulling funny faces and doing some cool dancing... nothing works. Small then hits on the idea of making Big a cheer-up cake. He's sure that will work. When the cake is baked and iced Small thinks it needs a finishing touch: and he uses the shining doohickey from his collection. When Big sees the cake he sees the missing item and leaps happily from the bed. Result! Will Small's cool dancing cheer up Big?
- Big and Small hear a strange sound one night and, when they investigate, discover it's Ruby practicing a new song she has written about how lovely the moon is that night. Big thinks the song should be softer - and invents a Twanger to help out Ruby. Small thinks soft is, well, soft: she should have LOUD! Loud as in a trolley of ribbiting frogs. Enough! calls out Ruby as she dodges flying Twangers and over-excited amphibians. It's her song - do Big and Small really want to help her or do they really want to do their own thing? Put like that... Big and Small join with Ruby to sing her song, her way, and they agree - it's not too loud and not too soft, yup, it just sounds good. Big and Small try to write a song for Ruby - but it's not easy playing a Twanger!
- Big is working hard on his latest invention: a Good Luck Machine. Meanwhile, Small's plans for a picnic are ruined by an empty fridge - no food! - and then torrential rain. He thinks that Big has actually made a Bad Luck Machine. And when Small knocks into a ball that ricochets off a wall and hits a skateboard that scoops him up and dumps him into the vacuum cleaner he gives Big an ultimatum: you either get rid of the machine or I move out. Big decides to put friendship first and puts the machine he worked so hard on outside near the bins. However, Small suddenly finds his luck changing - he discovers his emergency supply of pickles and ripe apples fall from the tree into his hands... Big thinks his machine is responsible, but perhaps luck is mysterious - you can make your own but sometimes it just happens! Big has invented a machine that Small thinks is causing him a lot of bad luck!
- Small makes a new pet out of an old sock and pieces of macaroni. Big, not realising that this object is 'Fang' rather than a dirty piece of footwear, puts it into the washing machine. Small is horrified: his beloved Fang has gone! Poor Ol' Fang! Big feels guilty and manages - after much trial and error - to remake the pet. When he's finished, Small makes Big take Fang for a walk in the garden. At first Big is embarrassed, but when Ruby expresses surprises at them for walking around with a sock, he realises what Fang means to Small and stands up for his friend and the new family pet. He corrects Ruby: Fang is not a sock. Fang is Fang, their new pet, and Big is happy to show him around the garden. Big is worried when Small tells him that his new pet, Fang, is on the loose!
- Big accidentally knocks two holes in the living room wall - two of many holes in the wall that have been covered up by paintings. They need to paint another picture - but what to paint? Big and Small decide to paint a portrait of Ruby, who happens to be quietly sitting and reading in the garden. Big and Small have very different styles of painting - Small's hurls himself and the paint at the canvas while Big takes precise measurements and makes careful drawings. At the end of a day being an artist, Small has a picture which is all sky and garden but no Ruby. Big, however, has a tiny picture of Ruby but no sky or garden... But when they put the paintings together it's a perfect picture and perfect for covering up both of the holes in the wall. Big and Small hold a competition to see who can paint the best picture of Ruby.
- Big is annoyed when Small cuts up his hosepipe to use as a rope in his rodeo show. To make amends, Small tries to help Big water the garden. Things don't go well, however - and so Small thinks that what they need to do is to ask the clouds very nicely if they would drift over and rain on the garden. Which they do. Is it because of the rain dance? Who knows for sure? But Big and Small do know that the flowers are now watered and will carry on growing. The flowers need watering - but will Big and Small's Rain Dance bring on the clouds?
- Big's prize tomato has finally ripened - it's big and red and beautiful and, Small thinks, will taste really great. Big, however, is shocked at Small saying that they should eat the tomato - he thinks his tomato is far too lovely to be eaten and should be kept in a jar in the shed with last year's tomato, and the year before that, and the year before... His collection of beautiful tomatoes: The Tomato Hall of Fame. When Big is moving the tomato into the shed, however, it falls from the mechanical grip and smashes. Big wants to put the smashed remains into the ground, saying a few words of farewell, but while doing this he accidentally has a taste of the fruit - and realises that Small was right: tomatoes taste good! Spaghetti sauce anyone? What will happen when Small decides to help Big pick his beautiful prize tomato?
- Big takes Small into the garden one evening to look at the stars - which he thinks are beautiful and magical. Small agrees at first - but after a minute or two doesn't find watching stars terribly exciting: don't they do anything? Big decides to count the stars, because he thinks that sounds like fun. Small agrees reluctantly to help him, but he keeps falling asleep and losing track of what number they're on. Big gets so frustrated at having to keep going back to one that he decides never to look at another star again let alone count them. But then the sky fills up with shooting stars and a breathtaking meteor shower. Both Big and Small are amazed by the sight. Small can see, now, that stars can be totally not boring and Big realises that you don't need to count the stars to see that they are just how brilliant they are. Big wants to show Small how beautiful and exciting stars can be.
