Mr Benn is an ordinary man who lives at 52 Festive Road. In each episode, he visits a mysterious costume shop run by a fez-wearing shopkeeper. He tries on a costume—such as a knight, astronaut, cowboy, or zookeeper—and is magically transported into an adventure related to that outfit.
The stories are gentle, imaginative, and often humorous. Mr Benn typically helps solve a problem in the fantasy world before returning home, where he finds a small souvenir from his adventure in his pocket.
