Johnson Bear is a country gentleman. He likes to dress in country clothes like tweed plus fours, and green waxed jackets, and Wellington boots, and also wears a bow tie, preferably red. He loves honey, buns, and red wine, and rummaging in bins for useful things to re-cycle. He is a practical, free-thinking bear, and kind. He likes country pursuits and enjoys fishing for red mullet in Big River. His best friends are Monty Mouse and Queen Duck and her ducklings. But Johnson hates the Beastly Buzzit, who is a pest. Buzzit is greedy and mean and his favourite thing is to wreck everybody's peace and happiness. See if Johnson can stop nasty Buzzit pestering the peace-loving creatures of Blue Wood, so they can be happy again.
