This has got to be the most annoying childrens programme ever, ever, ever made...aside from Justins house and possibly Gigglebiz..

YANBU.

Bag of shite.

RutaSkadi · 16/01/2014 19:46

I loved Balamory Smile Had a bit of a crush on PC Plum.

Only1scoop · 16/01/2014 19:47

Yabu Love it here....
Hate Justin's house though Confused

goodiegoodieyumyum · 16/01/2014 19:47

Have you noticed they don't have phones in Balmory, every time a person needs something they go to the house of the person that they want to talk to.

Hexbugsmakemeitch · 16/01/2014 19:47

Clearly you haven't been exposed to either Peppa pig ir Fireman Sam

ExitPursuedByTheRoyalPrude · 16/01/2014 19:48

I miss Balamory

It's a million times better than Waybuloo.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 16/01/2014 19:50

Balamory is not the worst.

Rastamouse is utter utter shite as is Justin's House

extracrunchy · 16/01/2014 19:52

I agree. Hate hate hate it. And bloody Justin's House.

mikeysmum27 · 16/01/2014 19:53

Balamory is a strange place indeed, its inhabited by the insane I think lol its got no concept of reality and the phone thing is weird. Glad someone else saw that too..I quite like Peppa Pig, I think Daddy Pig has a rather sexy voice.
I've not seen Fireman Sam since the 80's but I expect he's now fully computerised, animated and is up to all sorts of stuff, bit like Postman Pat - who now has a helicopter, motorbike as well as his van..

I would like to see a spoof version telling the REAL story of what's going on in Balamory.
Why does Archie live in a pink Castle?
What makes Josie bloody Jump so hyper?
How come Pocket & Sweet stocks every item known to man, it's like the TARDIS
(Gotta amuse myself somehow whilst watching the nonsense!)

Fairylea · 16/01/2014 19:54

Oooooo no! We love balamory! Ds 19 months likes to wave back to all the people at the end! :)

mikeysmum27 · 16/01/2014 19:54

Rastamouse! How did I forget that? Utter shite, goes straight off the TV here

Ummm I see your "balamory" and raise you "me too"

Or "tikka-fucking-billa"

AlwaysDancing1234 · 16/01/2014 19:54

Postman Pat is still the most useless postman there ever was

Heathcliff27 · 16/01/2014 19:55

We once visited Tobermory it was a stinking hole that smelled of piss, paint was flaking off the houses. Never has a 3 year old been so disappointed.

scottishmummy · 16/01/2014 19:58

We Love it

RutaSkadi · 16/01/2014 19:58

Heathcliffe Grin Remember when it first came out and the residents of Tobermory were up in arms about the amount of visitors they were suddenly getting?

mikeysmum27 · 16/01/2014 19:59

Ooohh, not seen Tikkabilla - I expect it'll be added to my list. DH always jokes about Postman Pat and the amount of chaos he causes just trying to deliver one sodding letter lol. Has anyone seen Mr Blooms Nursery? Now I find that rather weird and a bit creepy...

Heathcliff27 · 16/01/2014 19:59

Haha yep but the hoteliers were rubbing their hands together. We were there in 2007 i think

Fairylea · 16/01/2014 20:00

Sarah and duck and the octonaughts makes me want to stick pins in my eyes.

Thankfully ds hates them too!

Heathcliff27 · 16/01/2014 20:00

Just an aside by DH's friend fancies Sarah Jane who used to be on with Justin, hyper kinda gal with pigtails

chanie44 · 16/01/2014 20:03

Or nina and the morons or whatever it's called. They clearly tried to go diverse with the accents of the morons, but I have no idea what accepts try are trying to do.

TheGreatHunt · 16/01/2014 20:05

YABU

I love the theme tune.

Plus it's just a kids show.

ArtVandelay · 16/01/2014 20:05

Balamory is madness. I think Me Too is worse though, Mickey John wants nothing teaching children, he's so stupid. And Granny Murray is only about 40, she just wears shit clothes and cuts her own hair. With a makeover she could look way better.

I was just remarking to DH this morning about what a terrible postman Pat is. Instead of delivering essential documents and parcels he was pissing around joining in the drama of a cow being stuck on a cliff. Its no wonder the post office is losing money if this is how its employees behave.
