Characters[]

  • Big (Lenny Henry), a large and purple bear-like creature who is very friendly and laid-back.
  • Small (Lenny Henry), a small and orange dog-like creature who is very raucous and impulsive.
  • Ruby (Imelda Staunton (series 1–2); Tamsin Heatley (series 3), a pink red-haired mouse who lives in a hole within Big and Small's house. She is generally friendly but tends to lose her temper with Small.
  • Twiba (Imelda Staunton), a light green worm who lives inside an apple in Big and Small's garden. Twiba is an acronym that stands for "The Worm in Big's Apple". She is generally friendly but often acts somewhat pompous. She only appeared in the first two series.
  • The Frogs (unknown voice actor), a pair of hat-wearing frogs who live in the garden pond. One is lime green with a red wool hat, while the other is dark green with a business hat.
  • T-Rex, a light-brown dinosaur plush belonging to Big. T-Rex is Big's favourite toy, but Small is terrified of him.
  • The Fish, a neon-yellow fish who lives in the garden pond.
  • The Gwelf, a mischievous green storybook character. Small believes that the Gwelf is real, but Big isn't so sure. In most episodes, the Gwelf is implied to be some sort of alien.
