Jimbo and the Jet-Set was a quirky British animated series from the 1980s, created by Peter Maddocks, featuring Jimbo—a small, eager jet plane mistakenly built too tiny due to a metric mishap. Set in the bustling fictional "London Airport," the show followed Jimbo’s misadventures alongside a cast of anthropomorphic airport vehicles, including the grumpy Chief Controller and loyal friends like Tommy Tow-Truck and Amanda Baggage. With simple animation, five-minute episodes, and voice work by Peter Hawkins and Susan Sheridan, it captured a slice of British childhood nostalgia, blending aviation whimsy with gentle humor and a memorable catchphrase: “I want words with you, Jimbo!”
