I avoided it for ages because I hate the fact they have penis heads and heard it was really annoying too. I finally watched an episode with dd and omg I think I love it more than she does. I love the way mummy pig and daddy pig aren't perfect and I actually find myself laughing at some of the episodes The one with the grandparents and the lorry of gnomes And the ice puddle when peppa fell over muahhaha.

AIBU to like it more than dd seems to?

The guy who wrote and produced Outnumbered is Daddy Elephant, Alexander from Pointless is, I think, Daddy Fox, and obvs. Brian Blessed!

Oh and if anyone wants non pink Peppa pjs - Tescos have them in a pale gree colour £5. Ive recently bought a set for DD for christmas.

I agree re: dr hamster (is she the vet? "tiddles the toooortoyse"?)

FunnysInLaJardin · 12/12/2013 22:45

we all love Pepper Pig and also Ben and Holly. Nanny Plum is the best ' it's not very modern, you wouldn't like it' when talking to The Marigolds has become a household saying

I have perfected Madam Gazelles accent to a t. Love her character, and that she's probably a thousand years old as she taught mummy and daddy pig, and she was old then. I can also do a fab 'whaaaaaa' when George or Richard rabbit cries.

Miss Rabbit, and Mrs Rabbit crack me up when they say 'hello sister' to each other, rather than use their names.

The thing I love about Peppa is that it has adult humour inserted into it every now and then, that the kids won't get.

emblosion · 12/12/2013 22:52

Like a bit of Peppa but Ben and Holly is my fave....

wanders off singing 'the sea the sky the sea the dky the sea the sky'

Edmund is a clever clogs.

Love Peppa learning to whistle...just so funny.
and whenever Daddy Pig goes "oh"..that cracks me up.
ie up in the balloon
Daddy Pig: I didn't know you could fly a balloon Miss Rabbit
Miss Rabbit: Neither did I! I've never done it before
Daddy pig: Oh....
Hil..ari..ous.

There's a Welsh version called Peppa Pinc!

BusWanker · 12/12/2013 23:04

I love peppa pig so much. The creators and writers are genius.
We use all the phrases.
'I am bit of expert' is my favorite, we also snort every now and then at the end of a sentence.
I so want to lie on the floor laughing.

woodlandwanderwoman · 12/12/2013 23:05

Peppa chan suteki da yo

elQuintoConyo · 12/12/2013 23:08

I can't stomach either PP or B&H, especially the latter.

DS is more a fan of Spongebob (sorry pp ^^) and Dora child of Satan Exploradora.

cerealqueen · 12/12/2013 23:10

YANBU - I remember actually looking forward to seeing the christmas episodes the first time round with DD1!

Some of them are aimed at adults, like the digging up the road episode, first for the for the burst water pipe then the electrics, the traffic all knarled up, and the narrator saying 'everybody loves it when Mr Bull is digging up the road' Genuis.

DrinkFeckArseGirls · 12/12/2013 23:10

Peppa Porcinia (sp?) is the Italian one

Devora · 12/12/2013 23:16

This thread is making me so nostalgic for when my kids were a bit younger. I'm rather partial to a bit of Peppa Pig myself (and not in a bacon sandwich kind of way).

catyloopylou · 12/12/2013 23:19

Both DS and I were very sad when our nick jnr peppa channel disappeared. He doesn't get to watch so much Peppa and I don't get a rest.

sutekidane · 12/12/2013 23:35

Woodland

Oh and everyones posts on this thread (bar the manhole bacon sandwich ones, poor peppa!) are making me want all the episodes RIGHT THIS SECOND! I might have to look into investing in some of the DVDs for me dd to watch!

DH and I text one another when we see Miss Rabbit in a new job.

Think she is up to about 15.

Haha @ Peppa hanging up the phone on Suzy when she could whistle

HootShoot · 13/12/2013 00:28

We love Peppa in our house! Bong bing boo, bing bong bing, bing bong bingly bongly boo!!

I cook a dinner which has sausages, peppers and sweet potato in it - it's yum. My daughted gets confused about Peppa (puppy) and peppers, and we've now got to the point where she picks up a pepper and declares it puppy. When she picked up a sausage without really thinking I told her that was George. So now she has Puppy and George at mealtimes. My husband says that makes me a bad mummy - is he BU?

slowcooker · 13/12/2013 00:47

Not unreasonable at all! We love, love, love Peppa pig as well at ours.

I hope my DD never grows out of it. The adult jokes are hilarious and keep hubby amused.
The one where the Freddy the fox tell his dad he'd been down the rabbit hole for lunch and his dad replies something like "well done son" is his favourite. LOL

I've often relied on Peppa to discourage DD to jump in muddy puddles without boots so it's all bad I suppose.

LongTailedTit · 13/12/2013 01:41

HootShoot DH has set The Bing Bong Song as my ringtone on his phone!

BlackholesAndRevelations · 13/12/2013 06:19

Watched an episode yesterday about the cuckoo clock. Love how Peppa and George jump on their parents' bed at silly o'clock in the morning and daddy shouts "what?!" as they wake him up!

Also- "daddy pig loves doing nothing," hehe!

The DVDs were £3 in asda should have bought some...

RobinSparkles · 13/12/2013 06:58

Peppa Pig is brilliant! As is Ben and Holly.

DD1 is too old for it now but she still likes it. In fact, yesterday she said "Mummy, even though I'm 6, is it ok to still like Peppa Pig?" I said of course. I'm 30 and I like Peppa Pig :o but we agreed that we'll keep it secret and not tell her school friends!

DD2 is 2.10 and loves Peppa Pig. She has all the characters (mostly inherited from DD1) and she's getting the toy balloon ride for Christmas.

I'll be gutted when she's too old for it.

Slightly mad article, reminding me of classic mumsnet line, the fifties called and they want their attitude back. Peppa seems just like any normal little girl with a normal family, well apart from them all being pigs of course. As for a carrot and a potato shacking up together well...
