Favorite Singing Kettle song?

I never actually realized it was a tv show until recently but our granny used to play us a record of their songs. Now I play it to my dc.

It's hard to choose a favorite but mine has to be 'canne push your granny off the bus'

What's yours?

I'm fond of 'The World Must be Coming to an End' (and the classic refrain 'awww nawwwww'.

Ye Canny Shove Yer Granny has got to be top though.

I used to play these to my older kids when they were little. We even went to a live show in Wimbledon.

The wild man from kettleo has just come to town.

My sister won the video from the playdays magazine when she was young. Took us ages to work out why she pronounced up the Scottish way

The wee Kirkcudbright centipede is my favourite.

My cousin got picked to go onstage twice, and I never got to go on at all Sad

McDonalds, McDonalds, Kentucky Fried Chicken and a Pizza Hut.

Oh god, I thought I'd managed to erase this from my memory banks (my children are now mid-20s) but no, it's still there :(

We even took them to see the live show in Scotland on one not so memorable occasion.

jaxhwc · 15/10/2018 21:45

I didn't realize the McDonald's song was from them too! We sang that at brownies I think Hmm

Any time I hear someone mention pollution, I have to stifle the urge to start singing 'Pollution, pollution, the stinkiest stuff you ever did sniff'.
