Meet Harry the hare and Toto the tortoise. They live at opposite ends of Opposite Town. If Harry walks down Long Street, Toto will go up Short Street.

Harry the hare rushes about the place while Toto - in proper tortoise style - takes things at a slightly slower pace. But despite this, they're the best of friends!

Different opposites are tackled in each episode, visiting the different approaches of Harry and Toto. The story follows them as they realise that for every fast, there is a slow and for every door that closes another opens.

Throughout, viewers are invited to guess which resident of Opposite Town needs to help Harry or Toto with their problem and at the end of each episode the narrator recaps the opposite combination featured in the show - making it engaging from beginning to end.

Harry and Toto are characters with distinct personalities. While Harry rushes in, only to mess up, Toto usually has the answers. This is an endearing series with a distinctive musical score and fast-paced animation, set to become a children's classic.
