Any characters you would happily kill off?

Yes those dino-most things are awful. Lol at deady-most.

also all of the thomas engines the spiteful, egotistical, Moany feckers

Leave peppa alone though, i love brian blessed's character.

Yes. It doesn't seem to be the Done Thing to admit a liking for The Pig on MN but I actually find it quite charming and one of the few children's programmes since Sesame Street that's cracked entertaining the sprogs while also giving a nudge-wink to the parents (I'm thinking of the episode based on the old crossing the river riddle in particular, but also the cameos from Brian Blessed, Alexander Armstrong etc).

Deady-most Grin

Why just the sister on Grandpa in my pocket, I would get rid of the entire cast.

NittyDora · 14/04/2015 09:49

So if Sam is in the frame for knocking up Dilys then the twins are Norman's cousins and Mandyis the only non related child in Pontypandy?
I always thought Moose and Penny
would be really good together.

Poor Flop. He must have done something very bad in a previous life to have ended up with Bing. There's something intensely long-suffering about his tone. As if he's been trapped in that house for centuries with Bunny Bing, and no chance of escape.

BoysiesBack · 14/04/2015 10:27

YANBU, but I'd also leave James and Sarah to perish with him.

MagelanicClouds · 14/04/2015 10:31

Sarah and Duck a l'orange

MidniteScribbler · 14/04/2015 10:54

If someone could set fire to the entire set of Grandpa in my Pocket I'd give them a high five.

And dirtgirl. Please bury her in one of her holes.

redcaryellowcar · 14/04/2015 11:02

I'm in total agreement, there are so many fireman sam episodes where if Sam & co arrived just a little bit later, Norman wouldn't have made it, not a bad thing imho.
Agree totally with pp re Justin/ Mr tumble, he seems to be everywhere, we started recording night sky programme on bbc ahead of the eclipse, it was really nice and interesting then a few episodes in, up pops Justin, absolute no need to have him there when nice bbc Chris and very clever professor Maggie were there, seemed a shame and ruined my enjoyment of the programme (think I've written this in points of view style voice! Irritated of surrey)

Ellisisland · 14/04/2015 11:09

I'm in Thomas the tank whine hell over here. So I would like to nominate Thomas and James consigned to the scrapyard please!

slithytove · 14/04/2015 11:16

Are the twins related to Sam then?
It would make sense, Mandy is the only well behaved child in pontypandy

Irritating the shit out of people. It's a Bing thing.

(Flop can stay though, as long as he promises to keep talking to me 24/7).

All of the Dinopaws.

Whatever that thing is that calls crayongs 'Squiggle Sticks'. Oh, and the 'I am a Square', 'I am a Circle' line dancing shapes. I get all stabby over that show.

WannabeLaraCroft · 14/04/2015 12:45

Dora.

'nuff said.

ElphabaTheGreen · 14/04/2015 12:46

The twins are Sam's niece and nephew, Slithy. The fisherman chap (their dad, whatever his name is) is Sam's brother.

blueskydrinking79 · 14/04/2015 13:04

Yy to dirtgirl. Her voice is like nails on a blackboard. And Lala. And her entire big loud band. I detest them. Unsurprisingly ds loves them

ShesAStar · 14/04/2015 13:08

Bing, the moronic oversized rabbit.

MagelanicClouds · 14/04/2015 14:07

That WAS an adventure Abney, wasn't it? Abney?
Abney, I can't find Toby-Dog.

End credits of Toby-Dog being forced to eat his own acordian while Abney and Teal are slow cooked in a vat of porridge by Neap.

MagelanicClouds · 14/04/2015 14:08

We used to watch a lot of Shaun the Sheep. He won't watch it now. I miss those days.

Does NO-ONE but me want to spit-roast Mr Tumble..... Shock

MNpostingbot · 14/04/2015 15:48

what I'd give to see a rabid Swiper eat Dora

MNpostingbot · 14/04/2015 15:51

Bikket, do you mean spitroast in the traditional cooking sense?

If so yes I'll join you.

MagelanicClouds · 14/04/2015 15:54

I've got some spare BBQ coal and an extra long kebab skewer if they're any use Bikket!

Greymalkin · 14/04/2015 16:07

It's been a while now since I had to endure them, but Billy and BamBam and Hippa Hippa Hey from Baby TV can all FOTTFSOFTFOSM Angry

Completely agree that Norman is Sam's love child.

slithytove · 14/04/2015 16:27

That blasted, very rude squirrel from babytv too who is always accusing his friends of stealing stuff
