What is the English language plot outline for Captain Abercromby (2002)?

tvSeries

After Abercromby, who is raised by his grandfather, hears the tale of how his Grandpa lost his watch, which was given to him by Abercromby's mother, he dreams that he is a captain of a sea ship, the "Hope", and that he is on a mission to find the watch. Each show would open with Abercromby's Grandpa telling his story, in a green wooden bedroom surrounded by characters and props which later fill out the cast of Abercromby's dreams much like in Jim Henson's Labyrinth. A suit of armor in the corner (Arthur), a carved mermaid (Siren) and the tree outside (Great Oak). The following shots showed Abercromby climbing into bed (with Pointdexter on the end) and going to sleep, saying "I'll find that watch one day", entering the dream world of the show and starting the title sequence.
