Would you recognise Bagpuss?

[Holtome]

I, born 1970, have him on a Tshirt.

DS, born 2003, has no idea, fair enough.

But, BF, born 1977, swears he's never heard of him.

There's only 7 years between us, it feels like a generational gulf!

1972 and yes, although I hated it as a child.

Born 77. Got one in my car.

I was born in 1992 and haven’t ever watched bagpuss, but would recognise a picture

Yes of course the high light of my day along with Heidi and a dolls house thing

I love bagpuss, my comfort place to go to

Yes (1974) and also a Yes from my DD (2007) as my mum got her a soft toy Bagpuss when she was little

Yes definitely
and Pipkins (but so many people don’t know what that is)

I was born in 1967, so remember Bagpuss well. I loved everything about it except for those sodding helium voiced mice.

Absolutely.

both by kids would as well as there was a bit of a retro resurgence in the early 00’s and there was a lot of merch around- blankets, cushions, pj cases etc.

i’m surprised a child born 03 wouldn’t recognise Bagpuss, especially a fan.

Definitely. Born 1973. Might be more of a girl thing

I know Pipkins! Hartley the Hare was nightmare fuel though, he looked like taxidermied roadkill.

Every Sunday morning.

Of course! He was a saggy old cloth cat, but Emily loved him.

Born 1967

Definitely. I’d know the whole cast! Loved it.

He did didn't he Nasty snippy little creature too .

Born 1983 and I could recognise him, yes

Yes absolutely loved bagpuss, the clangers, Hector's house, Mary mungo and midge.....

my sister was born 84,
she loved bagpuss

I remember that! I think I had one. And a lovely pencil case. It made a bit of a resurgence in the late 90s I think.

Born mid-80s and remember sometimes seeing it on TV. I had a video of lots of episodes as well which I loved.

Hell, yes. I was 16, at Grammar School, and supposedly revising for my O-levels. Bagpuss had a surprising number of fans in my class, and I love it to this day. I still have the DVD in the back of the sideboard somewhere.

My daughter born in 2002 knows who it is even though she's never watched it

I have R&C on dvd 😆

“A friend of mine
a porcupine”

probably one of the best rhymes ever.

I have a knitted Bagpuss tea cosy

Absolutely. Loved bagpuss
