I cannot remember the name of the show for the wife of me. All I can recall about it is the beginning was live action at an amusement park, with a young girl and older man who started to tell her a story, leading into transition to animation. From what little I recall, the story was set in the outback of Australia, during and after its colonization by the British other than that I can’t really get more specific. and at the end, it was the same amusement park, but all the characters that were animated were appearing as their live action counterparts on a merry go round. One other thing, I remember, is the girl that the stories being told to ask really surprised when she sees the live action version of a main male character, and says his name, and for the life of me, I can’t remember that either it might be Toby or something.
Edit - never mind, I found it. The little convict or Toby and the koala
