Aibu to think that:

A) Norman Price will probably end up in a young offenders institution?
B) pontypandy must have more money than anywhere else in the UK to be sending Tom Thomas up in helicopter every 5 minutes to look for a missing whale (for example)
C) Sarah has the most annoying voice EVER!
D) Dilys and Trevor should just get it on and be done with it.
E) moose has the worst most over exaggerated Canadian accent
F) Sam is so bloody patronising to folk
G) If Elvis Cridlington turned up to fight a fire you'd be even more concerned for your safety Grin

I have a sick child (loaded with the cold and an ear infection) and Fireman Sam is cheering him up but driving me completely bonkers Grin

2 years of continuous FS and counting! DH gets ridiculously excited of a new episode appears. DS is obsessed. His poor younger DS does not realise the telly actually has more then FS on it.
Yes to NP being FS son. The red gair

DD age 3 LOVES fireman Sam.
Her dad has been subjecting her to it from the age of, like one month old. This is because he is welsh and a fireman. Not even joking.

Pontypandy would be a lot safer if they just 'accidentally' failed to save Norman Price.

I thought DD was past it but recently started watching again. Every man except sam and maybe tom is completely incompetent. Even in the new ones with girl in wheelchair the dad is an idiot. I think Sam is a closet transvestite and yes to elvis being Steele's son. I hate mike and bronwyn, and poor Charlie is obviously the disappointment in his family.

The bloody toys are all made by the same company that produces all the Sam/postman pat/peppa pig toys. Crap quality and massively overpriced.

Officer Steele has something of the Jimmy saville about him.

I am very lucky that I can persuade ds1 just to watch the food channels with me. He enjoys it and then goes off to cook me scallops and black pudding in his kitchen.

It has been proved by Science to be the worst children's programme Grin

There is a new film out of Fireman Sam called "Heros of the Storm". Someone got it Ds for Christmas. They get a new fire station built and two new firefighters!!! That's 6 firefighters in total for one small town. The new male firefighter is more annoying then the whole rest of the characters put together

Dolly, not as annoying as Penny being so delighted to 'have another girl on the team'. I cringe every time.

Dollymixtureyumyum · 24/01/2016 21:59

Ah yes catsize I forgot that bit Grin

I've never noticed that there are no police in pontypandy!

The Flood's house has been set on fire so many times that, by rights, it should be a smoking wreck.

The episode about the Pontypandyness Monster makes me RAGE! Grin

Their insurance premiums in ponty pandy must be ridiculous.

HairySubject · 24/01/2016 22:41

Oh we had this phase too, right after Peppa pig who I also hated. Then we had octonauts which is much better and now paw patrol.

So glad my son is fickle! Each phase lasts about 6 months so just long enough to but the toy range for either birthday or Christmas at which point he switches to something else over night.

HoggleHoggle · 25/01/2016 13:41

I shit you not, last night I dreamt I lived in Pontypandy.

In my defence, I've got a horrible virus and have been subjected to a lot of FS when not in my right mind.
