The Storyteller: Greek Myths (Season 1)

The Storyteller: Greek Myths (1991) is a British fantasy series from the Jim Henson Company you can watch online on iFILM, with Michael Gambon as the Storyteller.

Four episodes, four myths. The Storyteller sits in a labyrinth and recounts — to his rather opinionated dog — the stories of Perseus and Medusa, Icarus and Daedalus, Theseus and the Minotaur, and Orpheus and Eurydice. Henson's signature mix of puppetry and live performance makes these ancient stories feel stranger and more unsettling than any textbook version.

Directed across the four episodes by John Madden, Tony Smith, and David Garfath, with a young David Morrissey among the cast. A spinoff of the 1988 Storyteller series, it pitches at older children but earns its moments of genuine unease. Stream The Storyteller: Greek Myths (1991) online on iFILM.
