"Terry
had bolted me onto the project because he liked the Innes Book of Records and thought if I brought something
of that to the Fairy Tales, that might work. I think it
was me that came up with the idea of East of the Moon
from an old poem, 'East of the Sun and West of the Moon,'
and I turned it round. Because Terry Jones' Fairy Tales
didn't seem like a very grabbable title; a good subtitle,
but not the sort of thing that would look good on the
schedule pages. And I began to think, well, okay, yeah,
we'll do it, along the lines of, let's do the stories…
I think at least two dramatized stories and two animated
stories with songs as a way of presenting them. 
"It
took years to get off the ground, actually, before we
got the money to do it. And it wasn't the happiest of
production times. In fact we only made seven when I'd
written thirteen. I was going to direct them at one point,
and then I realized that because we got money in from
Channel 4 in Wales, they wanted a Welsh version as well.
I said, 'No, this isn't going to work. Do you realize
we've got to do all the spoken scenes twice!' Which is
like doubling the budget, and they're only putting in
like a tenth. So it doesn't compute. So I resigned. My
first job as a director I resigned!
