Professor Poopsnagle's Steam Zeppelin (aka Professor Poopsnaggle and His Flying Zepplin) was an Australian children's television series and a spin-off from Secret Valley. It was first aired 1986 in Australia and also later in France (1993, FR3), Spain (1989) and The Netherlands (1989, KRO).
Story
[edit]Doctor Garcia had made an invention that would stop the air pollution. After he disappeared, the children of the Secret Valley have to find six golden salamanders which each contain the name of a mineral for that secret recipe. Professor Poopsnagle, the grandfather of Peter, planned a steam zeppelin, a reconstruction of a red bus with technology of a hot air balloon so it can fly. The children now build it and search the salamanders with the aid of an encoded document.
Count Sator is also interested in this formula. He kidnapped the professor, turned one of the children into a spy and observes the children with his computer "Brutus". Later they rescued Professor Poopsnagle and helped him with his invention called Megavapor.
