Step Inside was a British programme that was created in 2001 by Tricorn Productions on CBBC for BBC Two, and first shown on CBeebies in 2002, and last repeated in July 2010. The show is partially lost.
The only human character in the show is Mr Mopple (played by Chris Jarvis), a groundsman. Whilst doing his jobs, Mr Mopple invariably hears a noise from the house which tells him there must be a story to be told. The house magically appears to come to life as he steps inside, a face appearing on the outside wall.
Inside the house are the non-human characters, which use a mix of animatronic faces and puppet hands:
Boris the bookshelf provides a book, and Mr Mopple sits down to tell the story. The characters often argue among themselves, with Mr Mopple keeping the peace. Mr Mopple provides an array of voices for each character in the book while reading. When Mr Mopple has finished the story, he leaves the house and goes back to work.
