Description: A highly entertaining re-telling of the well-known nursery rhyme. King Cole may be old, but he’s not too old to fall in love. And now he’s decided that it’s high time that he should take a wife. The women of the town and royal cook Dotty Dumplin are queueing up to audition for the role of Queen, but King Cole already has his heart set on Debbie Dumplin, Dotty’s daughter. Unfortunately Debbie has fallen in love with Florian, who also happens to be the King’s aide. Meanwhile, King Cole’s evil brother Peski and his wife Pariah are conspiring to unseat him from the throne, with a little help from a magic pool that reverses the ageing process, turning Old King Cole into Young King Cole.
