Family-Ness was about the adventures of a family of Loch Ness Monsters and the MacTout family, particularly siblings Elspeth and Angus. The 'Nessies' could be called from the loch by the two children by means of their "thistle whistles".
Nessies included Ferociousness, Heavyness, Sillyness, Lovelyness, Pirateness, Sportyness, Babyness and Eagerness.
