to just not GET.....

[GnocchiNineDoors]

....In The Night Garden.

The squeaky blue thing.....the little red communists living in the teeny house....makka whatever his name is pushing what looks like a mobility scooter...they dont say real words....

Put it on for dd after being recommended it and IM just sat thinkng wtaf.

Even she doesnt seem fussed and whereas she seems to find Peppa Pig hilarious....this shes just not fussed.

Am I missing something? The person who recommended it has bought all the toys, the dvds....im just

Who ever it was that came up with that programme were obviously high on acid

It's 'The Prisoner' meets 'Award-winning Animation from Czechoslovakia'.

I have only ever seen one. One of the characters was 'washing his stones'.

DD was addicted to this as a toddler.
The way I see it is Iggle Iggle is a teddy and Upsy Daisy is a ragdoll. They live in the garden and Macca Packa is the grounds keeper of the garden. Iggle Piggle and Upsy daisy are having a turbulant love affair.
The rest are other toys living in the garden.

I think it is meant to show what they toys get up to when the child is asleep.
Bear in mind it is the same writters as Teletubbies.....

What ever happened to danger mouse and button moon eh? When bump arrives I will be investing in some DVDs, no way I'm being subjected to in the night garden bollix!

I also saw some red soldiery things.

YANBU but DD gets it and sits happily in front of it clapping the various characters while I collapse on the sofa for 25 minutes

Button moon? Also written while high surely? A soon man goes to space in a Heinz baked bean can and meets some army eggs and a moon Hoover .

I don't get ITNG and dd1 has outgrown in but from 12-18 months it was like baby drugs

Pontipines! They are weird little things. I'm being subjected to it right now.

What are the little blue things? Do they live next door to the Pontipines (thanks Whos.)

What the fuck is wrong with parking your kids in front of Noddy?

is old

I read macca pacca as something else entirely

I won't let my DD watch it because it is shite. We watch Octonauts, Ben and Holly and Peppa Pig. All quite sensible with good moral messages! Smug mummy

They are the wottingers, they are identical to the pontipines in everyway, but are blue.

Sometimes they all meet up for a picnic and it all goes horribly wrong.

I can't stand all the snorting in peppa pig. Most annoying.

It's voiced by a thespian Shakespearean actor. Can't remember his name?

Derek Jacobi

Not that we're avid watchers of in the night garden.

My DP laughs his head off at the pontipines (or however they are spelt)

That's it! I quite like them, I'd like some for pets (mini slaves)

the wottingers are next door to the pontipines but they are kept in isolation

The tombliboos love their trousers, according to the bit I saw, wtf???

Love itng but can only watch a couple of episodes at a time before my brain tries to escape through my ears... The music is particularly catchy and I now have in my head!

Oh those tombliboos! Always forgetting to put their trews on. It's a right hoot!

I always thought it was very unreasonable to have a children's character with a penis shaped head. But nobody else thought so.

Just soooo glad both nippers have outgrown it.

Naah, Iggle Piggle looks like David Cameron.
