Fucking Night Garden!

[MrsAxewound]

Hate this program so much but my little one is all about it at the moment. What is so good about it?! The only characters that don't appear to suck are the Haa Hoos and that mad toucan

[Coco0123]

I miss it! We have progressed to Topsey & Twatting Tim

[munkisocks]

I'm so bad. DD got ninky nonk and bing bunny for Xmas as she loves both. Think the pontipines parents are a bit neglectful towards their kids, keep forgetting they left them on the ninky nonk bus. I timed ITNG. It takes 7 minutes to get into the story, and around 10 minutes to finish where they include a story about what you just fecking watched! The rest of the show is constant repetition. Wave to the Wottingers! About 20 bloody times...

[Vedamakesthebesttoast]

YES redexpat this exactly.... Ffs Derek sort it out!!

[midnightlurker]

I love Bing. He has the same fears and worries as my toddler, and watching it really helps DS. Hate ITNG though!

[JeannePoole]

Also - ALSO - the Wattingers are clearly one of those families that George Osborne warned us about. You know, the ones whose blinds are shut every morning while the poor Pontypines go out to work. I reckon they show their idle faces about once every ten episodes at best. Bloody layabouts.

[NotAWhaleOmeletteInSight]

Argh, INTG. Dd loves it though and it's become an integral part of the pre-bathtime ritual. It also continues into bathtime as we've got a boat toy thingy with IP and UD in it. They have to have their teeth brushed before dd will allow us near hers too. Sigh.

BING on the other hand... God I hate that damn bunny. Whiney, whingy and wimpish. And Flop. Ffs. You know he's that simpering parent who attempts to negotiate but loses every argument with toddlers. Also I bet he never intervenes effectively when Bing tramples other children with his massive paws at soft play.

Hate. The. Bunny.

[PandoNoPants]

DS used to be terrified of that toucan or "tookie" as he used to call it!

[schlong]

Sexy voiced Mark Rylance as Flop makes Bing a must watch in our house. DS moans though!

[summerdreams]

Hate it I'm forced to watch it everyday and my son doesn't get the hole night garden sleep association completely escapes him his first to words he put together where upsy daisy how bloody depressing.

[LauraMipsum]

I love ITNG and I want to move in to the Tombliboos' cool tree / bush multilevel house with slides.

The Pontipines are clearly a miniature militia though.

[redexpat]

I just want Derek Jakobi to sing the Iggle Piggle song properly. Just ONCE Derek!

[JeannePoole]

Iggle Piggle isn't David Cameron; he's Andy Burnham. The eyelids are a dead giveaway.

[Mumberjack]

I thought iggle piggle was actually dead and the boat was going to take him to the afterlife. Hence his reluctance to 'go to bed'.

Bing Bunny is simply a kids format of casualty. It all looks safe and fine but there's the undercurrent of doom as somethings going to happen to make the little bastard go in a huff.

[EponasWildDaughter]

I thought the Fondliboobs et al in the garden were his dreams; while sailing in the boat. On the dark sea of the unconscious.

[FairyFluffbum]

I like itng music

My dh hates it

I wonder where they got the names for the tittifers though

[RaskolnikovsGarret]

I loved ITNG esp the music and boat thing at the end!

[Buxtonstill]

So if Iggle Piggle lives on a boat, how come you never seeing him sailing into the garden harbour? I think the night garden is all in his head, and the Tombliboos et al are all in his imagination...

[Luckystar1]

Look up postman Patrick on YouTube (it's the Irish one) it makes of these things bearable.

[HazzaB89]

Watching ITNG right now. DD knows it's time for milk & bed when it comes on. Bing on the other hand is a twat. God I hate that rabbit.

[PiperIsTerrysChoclateOrange]

Relish itng Bing and even teletubbies.

Better than bloody YouTube. Currently listening to Chases corner.

[Filiboom]

Someone, I think on here, said that Iggle Piggle looked like David Cameron and now that's all I can think of when I watch it. (They were right!)

[PurpleThermalsNowItsWinter]

ITNG was so rude I laughed through it. Much better than postman pat.

[MrsAxewound]

Eponas don't! Bing is a WHOLE other thread! I got so riled watching that before I ended up shouting and swearing at the TV in front of the little one. I was so ashamed! We try and avoid Bing these days!

[UmbongoUnchained]

I'm watching Bing right now.... I hate him. I actually want to just slap him.

[EponasWildDaughter]

Hmm. I can take ITNG. DD does the lovely little stroking her palm thing at the beginning at bedtime now

However - I'd just like to take the opportunity to say FUCKING BING!!!!!!!!

STOP with your bloody winging and whining will you for the love.of.god!

As you were.
