YABU Peppa pig is rude and should be taught manners.

I love her. DS will not notice I've gone for a wee if I put Peppa on, it's the only time off I get.

She says please doesn't she? I don't think she's rude, just a bit gobby. I like that Grin

The bing bong song is indeed amazing. But now it'll be in my head all day and for that I blame you!

I rather like Peppa, but it does wind me up that all the characters have double barrelled names except George, eg Rebecca Rabbit, Peppa Pig, Danny Dog ....and George, somehow George Pig just sounds wrong! Grin, he must feel so left out

I love Peppa pig. My favourite bit was when uncle pig got baby Alexander's pushchair out and daddy pig said how good it was and uncle pig said yes it's the latest model, mudguards alloy wheels and ABS. just glad I've got an 8 month old dd so have got an excuse to watch it!

I hate the bitch. But my son loves her. Luckily he also loves Ben and Holly who I am now a HUGE fan of. Nanny Plum is the same voice as mummy Rabbit in Peppa Pig so I just look our for her and pretend it's Ben and Holly. Grin

Isn't it the one where they go to the fairground or something where Mummy Pig gets told she can't do something because she's female? I love the way she narrows her eyes at that.

And all that time on the computer - I bet she's on Mumsnet.

YABU, Peppa Pig is an unpleasant little tyrant.

I heart Peppa Pig! My favourite episode is the one where Daddy Pig dives off the highest diving board after saying his catchphrase: "I'm a bit of an expert at diving" & you can see that everyone is waiting for this massive, ungainly belly flop into the pool but Daddy Pig executes the perfect dive! Hurrah!

The Bing Bong song is good but not as fabulous as the Big Balloon song, IMO.

Worryingly, far too many conversations between DH and I start with "I watched a brilliant episode of Peppa Pig yesterday . . . " nowadays.

Oh dear. Perhaps I should make PP my specialist subject and go on Mastermind!

I love George Pig almost as much as my DS. But why doesn't his name begin with a P?

we watch it in Welsh, as "Peppa Pinc!" but the surname is Mochyn, which is Welsh for pig.

George Mochyn sounds better than George Pig.

I dislike Peppa, they're all horrible to poor George. I don't want my boy to think that's an acceptable way to act to someone smaller than himself.

George is lovely. George is Wonderful. George is my 2 year old's favourite and he refers to the programme as "George!".
I love George, because he loves dinosaurs and my boy watching George gives me a small break to go to the loo ALONE!

George is my little one's favourite too. She has a George sign on her bedroom door.

I will not hear a bad word against Peppa! She reminds me of me

I was slightly alarmed when I realised I was genuinely watching a new episode the other day and wanted to see the end Blush Has been background noise for about 2 years now so have seen all the old ones. She can be bit of brat, like when she picks herself to win the fancy dress party or hangs up on Suzie Sheep because she can whistle and Peppa can't but hardly unlikely behaviour for a 5 year old, but Suzie is worse - she nicked Peppa's last talent idea ON PURPOSE!!
