Sooty and Sweep

AIBU to say they give me the ick. They have evil eyes and the way they look at Sue...there have been rumours for years. I can't say more but everyone in the world of hand puppets knows what they know.

I'll just say one thing...they have been photographed with Kermit the Frog. That's enough for me.

They will soon be arrested I imagine and I for one will cheer.

Satire on mumsnet youbhave restored my faith in the site.

Greenmouldycheese · 10/11/2026 23:36

Yeah, theyve always creeped me out. Every thought they were so funny but not me. I was different. I could see through it all and have been waiting for this day to come.

NotAnotherScarf · 10/11/2026 22:44

As a man. Not funny.

I think there's a difference between a joke about sooty and doing it about sexual abuse. Especially when some people are regretting laughing at and supporting the views of a guy they now know wasn't "joking " and others who were given the benefit of the doubt to and didn't deserve it.

At least it's ABIT light-hearted. How many bloody brand and Walliams threads are there on here. MN is abit of a cesspit.

Talk about some nice people and things fgs. Highlighting the dross 😢

I’m not sure victims of men like Walliams and Brand would read this thread and think it’s ok because it’s a bit light hearted.

A thread on Sooty and sweep, you’ve also made a thread about Kermit the frog. Are you bored??

I think they need calling out.

Jonathan Ross joking about David Walliams sleeping with drunk 15 year old girls.

Jonathan Ross harassing Andrew Sachs about his young daughter sleeping with Russell Brand.

Noel Fielding joking about Russell Brand doing a rape.

Why are women who start threads about their uneasiness about all this being mocked by the OP? This is our safe space.

Rumour has it that Sweep’s squeaks were a cry for help due to Harry Corbett’s hand up his bottom.

Gross.

These our children’s toys and present as kids.

I think the OP is highlighting the threads which name random celebrities in a judgemental fashion.

Of course. Doesn't mean it's not nonsense.

What a weird attempt at humour after some very unfunny news stories this week
