Is this strange or is it just me?

And is it weird that they have a doctor AND a vet? But they are all animals?

My brain can't take it :)

Goofy is a dog. Wikipedia doesn't lie!

GOLDENLiquidAngel · 25/11/2012 19:43

Goofy is a dog not a cow apparently

In an attempt to understand the Madame Gazelle word play I googled her. All I got was this strange website which says she died earlier this year. How do I break this to DD?

I bet that was a cheery episode Hmm

maddening · 25/11/2012 21:14

I liked the ones where Mr fox (who is fab as a spiv (speak?)) and Freddy fox smell dinner down the rabbit hole.

and the one where the wolves move in next to the pigs and the talk of huffing and puffing.

ps nanny plum is doing it with Mr Elf - see the episode "the ant hill" for proof.

Mrs elf knows but doesn't want to rock the boat with Ben and holly - that is why she is on valium.

I heard somewhere (probably MN) that there are several Miss Rabbits. Mummy Rabbit has lots of spinster sisters who must fill their childless hours with jobs.

Pochemuchka · 25/11/2012 21:27

Was thinking this EXACT thing about Maisy Mouse today.

There's a black cat which is smaller than all the other animals and can't speak either. In fact, it just does cat things. Odd.

... and this is why I joined MN.

You are all mental - get a life!

DingDongBelle · 25/11/2012 21:49

maddening I knew it!! Someone else spotted it.

I wonder what the criteria is? I can just imagine them all between takes, grumbling that they didn't even get a speaking part...

There's too much for adults to at in Peppa Pig. The DC's give me Hmm looks when I giggle at it.

there is also the possiblity I have finally lost the plot

SaggyOldClothCatPuss · 25/11/2012 22:09

If you want snurking, the Rugrats are brilliant!

it's also weird that the vegetables in Mr Sprout's garden or whatever it's called (Mr Bloom, just remembered) eat vegetables. Someone else might have said that, can't be bothered to read whole thread!

BlackholesAndRevelations · 25/11/2012 22:44

Mr Bloom is WRONG. I love all the serious conversation about peppa and Ben and Holly etc- it's like me talking about Eastenders or something, and my dp saying, "it's not real, you know" with a Hmm expression! Grin

I've never understood why many otherwise naked animal characters, wear pyjamas in bed. Wtf? To get ready in the morning, they strip off.

Miss Rabbit got an award from the Queen (who was human and looked and sounded just like the queen) for being the hardest worker in the kingdom. A jubilee episode I think.

perceptionreality · 25/11/2012 22:57

Peppa Pig isn't actually supposed to make sense you know - I mean did the Teletubbies ever make sense?? Wink

DingDongBelle · 25/11/2012 23:11

Don't even start me on inappropriate clothing. WHY, in Rastamouse, do the girls wear tops and bottoms but the males only tops?!
