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.

nitty he didn't get that hair from his mother is all I'm saying GrinWink

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
