The vivid but unnerving world of Figaro Pho returns to ABC3 next week in a new series, The New Adventures of Figaro Pho.

This wonderful little character is produced by Chocolate Liberation Front in association with Luma Pictures.

These episodes are just 8 minutes long. Don’t be afraid!

Every one of us has got at least one irrational fear…. in the case of Figaro Pho, he has them all.
Figaro Pho is an adorable, quirky and mischievous character that just happens to be afflicted with every phobia imaginable. He’s afraid of vampires, toilets, mad dogs and being stared at by a duck! He’s also petrified of being alone, and so Figaro has created a mechanical companion – a dog-like robot he calls Rivet.

Figaro and Rivet live in a rundown mansion built precariously on a cliff above the small town of Cogville. Figaro’s crumbling house is effectively a death trap containing thousands of things that he fears, and unfortunately the outside world is even more terrifying to poor Figaro.

The town of Cogville is also home to Snotty Ronald, Prudence and Rudy, three children Figaro regularly interacts with. Other notable characters are the unfortunate mailman Cornelius, the ancient shopkeeper Dotty, and stinky man Boris.

Episode 1 – Winter has arrived in Cogville. An ice skating competition is underway and Figaro has his heart set on winning 1st prize. The only problem is his skating skills are terrible. Luckily Rivet is there to help with a pair of incredible remote-controlled ice skates. At Rivet’s command, Figaro can now double-axel with the best of them. But it’s not long before fellow competitor Prudence catches on and tries to take control of the device. With his every move at Prudence’s mercy, Figaro must keep his cool to win over the judges with his original technique.

Weekdays at 5pm from Monday August 31 on ABC3.
