The whole thing is a misunderstanding of Peppa's; Madam Gazelle is only going to be gone for a week for a holiday. She even said "no playgroup next week," but Peppa didn't understand.

The series centers on Peppa and her family and friends. The pig family consists of:
* '''Peppa Pig''': A young girl pig
* '''George Pig''': Peppa's younger brother
* '''Daddy Pig''': Peppa and George's father
* '''Mummy Pig''': Peppa and George's mother

Other characters are other anthropomorphic animals whose names always start with the first letter of the name of the animal they represent. Popular enough in the UK to have an entire section of a children's theme park (Paulton's Park) called Peppa Pig World open in 2011.
