Percy Drip knows what to do...

Welcome to the wonderful world of Percy Drip the Plumber, let’s join him in his clean green van along with Trousers the dog as he goes about his daily work.

We meet Percy’s wonderful friends; there’s Reverend Crankshaw, Sammy Stamp, Miss Manners, and a whole host of lovely characters. Percy’s day doesn’t always go to plan, and sometimes ends in chaos.

We become part of Percy’s family, at home with Mrs Drip who always tries her hardest to keep him out of trouble, not always successfully I’m afraid.

Everyone knows who to call when they’re in trouble and need help, call for Percy he’ll know what to do.

Leaks and drips, or in a fix! Call Springwick 61616

Percy Drip the Plumber lives in Springwick, a small bustling village in the county of Springshire with his adoring wife Betty.

Percy never calls his wife Betty, it’s always ‘my beloved’, because that’s who Mrs Drip is, she’s Percy’s beloved. They share their cosy cottage with Trousers, their faithful but mischievous dog.

If you’re ever in Springwick and spot Percy, you can be sure that Trousers is never very far away.

There’s a rumour in the village that Trousers speaks to Percy, no one’s ever heard him, but Mrs Drip says that it’s true.

Read all about Percy Drip’s adventures

The adventures of Percy Drip the Plumber are being brought to life in a series of six books aimed at children aged five to 10. Each book is a story in its own right, introducing wonderful new characters to build the tale to a happy ending.

They hark back to the days of good old-fashioned storytelling and will stretch the imagination of young minds. Each character is brought to life with full colour pictures by Alan Birch, one of the UK’s leading illustrators of children’s books.

The adventures of Percy Drip will also be available as audio books, but with a difference.

The main stories are being narrated by much-loved TV presenter Nick Owen, with Percy, Mrs Drip and all their friends being voiced by a very talented team, including radio regulars Malcolm Boyden as Percy and Jenny Wilkes as Mrs Drip, plus a host of sound effects bringing the stories to life.

The first book in the series, Percy Drip and the Noisy Bath is now available, alongside the fantastic audio book, for purchase here on the website.

The Percy Drip theme song, sung by Percy with his friend Malcolm helping out, along with the Dripettes, our lovely children’s choir, is free with the audio book download.
