Fraggle Facts
This episode reveals another clue about the size of Fraggle Rock. The Minstrels -- who Gobo and his friends have never seen before -- arrive in the cave, and explain that they travel around, "finding Fraggles in different caverns," and leading medleys. For Cantus and the Minstrels to have enough places to go for them not to have been here within recent memory, the Rock must be huge.
Notes
This episode is the first appearance of Cantus and the Minstrels, who reappear whenever music and wisdom are needed.
International Versions
UK version: Sprocket thinks he has musical talent, but the Captain begs to differ. Uncle Matt is horrified at the sight of a Scotsman playing a bagpipe, thinking the bagpipe is a monster which the Silly Creature is strangling.
