to think that kiddie tv is being rude?

[VegimalStyle]

I'm watching tv with dd and I've started noticing what I'm perceiving as double entendres and other rudeness in the shows.

The cat in the hat always contains the phrase "flick the jiggermawizzer!"

The octonauts had kwazii claiming he needed to "polish his spyglass"

In the night garden had upsy daisy being covered in mucky stains.

Is it real? Are these shows fitting in naughty stuff for us adults or aibu?

The problem is with your dirty mind, not secret innuendos!

Just wait until you see the one where they all take turns to get into UpsyDaisy's bed.

You know that phase that some teenage boys go through, where everything is capable of being misinterpreted and twisted to refer to sex, or drugs or preferably both?
You are revisiting it.
It's all in your mind.

Oh it's all in your dirty mind.

Upsy Daisy likes to be chased around the garden and it's up to her who 'sleeps' in her bed.

Kwasi has a very impressive spyglass. I remember when he found it.

It's nothing compared to the likes of Bungle, George and Zippy and what they used to say. Or Captain Pugwash and his crew, anybody?

For those who've never seen rainbow and its rudeness!

And captain pugwash wasn't rude, there was no master Bates or roger the cabin boy!

I think he has one.
Urban Legend Creation and its association with CBBC

That is 100% real! Ignore the date, I'm not into that stuff.

Once you notice this stuff you start seeing it everywhere...

The Rainbow one was made as an in-house joke I believe. I don't think anyone realised that in 20 years' time, the internet would have happened

I was a bit at the "All about Andy" footage Cbeebies ran a while ago. He is, apparently, the youngest of three brothers, but he is the longest.
immediately thinks of Andy's knob

I've been trying to track down an episode of mopatop's shop which had a whacking machine that went around spanking all the characters, but I can't find it! I know it exists!

The Rainbow one was an internal gag show, never broadcast (IIRC it was screened at a TV company Christmas party). As BertieBotts says, then the Internet happened...

There are loads of innuendos in the Hoobs.

Big cook little cook gets saucy...

Well, some might say that it's all in your mind OP but I do think that they do it on purpose!

It's keeping me entertained robin!

I'm sure they do it on purpose!

That particular Rainbow 'episode' was an in-house joke, but watch any of the others and they are almost as bad!

From Magic Roundabout to the Octonauts - they all have innuendo :)

In fact, I think there was an interview somewhere with the guys who play Big cock Cook and Little cock Cook and I'm sure that they said that they did it on purpose. I didn't see it but heard about it on MN.

I notice these things but see them as cartoon / programme makers putting a wee something in to make the adults laugh. Children who know nothing of sex etc will not make the same associations we do.

I know that autumn but my dd does ask why I'm laughing

VegimalStyle I was going to say that one but you beat me to it. I was when I saw that one.

I know someone who used to write for one of the shows mentioned and they used to to shoehorn in as much innuendo as they could, for their own amusement and the parents'.

God/other deity/science bless your friend! They help keep me sane. I think that if I went on mastermind my specialist subject would be the octonauts these days...
