I also have a theory that their mum is shagging around. This explains why when topsy got chickenpox, her mum's mobile was switched off and no one could reach her.

Clearly her husband is batting above his average anyway, so it was perhaps par for the course.

On another note ItsNice your username is amazing

Kim look at muueeeeeeeee

GustyParson · 16/11/2016 18:14

I think the dad is incredibly sexy and I would jump him like a flat car battery.

Msqueen33 · 16/11/2016 18:15

She makes me feel imperfect. I detest her, her smiley face gives me the rage! Kids are rude, oh well tra la la. I think she has a nip of gin throughout the day.

WaitrosePigeon · 16/11/2016 18:17

I know she's annoying but in real life she's lovely!

Cynara · 16/11/2016 18:30

I'm in total agreement with Fizz and have made this point before to DP, who looked at me like I'd gone mad and backed away slowly (although he has no room to judge because he has his own theories about Fireman Sam and Norman Price, but that's another thread....)
Topsy and Tim's dad is shagging the neighbour, can't remember her name, and the mum knows but is grateful for the respite from his kinky sexual demands so doesn't care. Dad keeps her supplied with benzodiazepines and she swigs vodka from a tea cup to get through each grinding, tedious day with the pair of smug liitle fuckers.

MarklahMarklah · 16/11/2016 18:38

Loathe it. Topsy is a simpering little goody-goody and Tim is so dim it's unreal. Have you seen the one when he and Tony Welch make a horse dressing up outfit?It's crap.
I notice that there was no request for a DBS check or review of safeguarding when the nursery kids went to their house.
I think Mum & Dad spend a lot of time dosing up on ketamine or something.

NunTheWiser - genius Xmas Grin ... nothing more needs to be said!

Msqueen33 · 16/11/2016 18:45

And why the actual fuck would you call your child Topsy?!

ImSoUnoriginal · 16/11/2016 18:51

Nunn, you are brilliant. Loathe Topsy and Mopsy. I'm guessing they stopped making them as the kids got too old. As it was they looked about 6 when they were playing 4 yr olds.

SpartaCarcass · 16/11/2016 19:09

They recorded about 3 or 4 series all together so the children stayed the same size (I was at a recording at the BBC and was told). As it was, "Topsy" lost a tooth and had to wear a false one to cover her gap, plus she wears a fringe wig.

ItsNiceItsDifferentItsUnusual · 16/11/2016 19:09

Thanks fizz!

NunntheWiser · 16/11/2016 19:13

I also like to annoy my four year old (who loves it, just to spite me) by calling them Flopsy and Dim.

Ktay · 16/11/2016 19:13

To answer a Q up thread, all the adults have to wear dull colours so the focus is more on the children.

Boundaries · 16/11/2016 19:25

Has any parent of actual twins ever uttered the word "twintastic"?

So annoying.

Read this, it's bloody brilliant. Made me laugh for ages

Hurrah for Gin Topsy and Tim

MatchyMatcha · 16/11/2016 19:30

My kids say ' can we watch Smug Family'

FunkinEll · 16/11/2016 19:30

On the less annoying side, Kerry's Dad is very attractive.

Kat3L · 16/11/2016 19:35

Nunn, that's hilarious!

EveOnline2016 · 16/11/2016 19:36

Twintastic I am using that to wind up my friends.

sortthetacheoutbernard · 16/11/2016 19:39

Kerrys dad is what makes it watchable.

Mummy is so fucking virtuous she only wears practical shades of beige, white and sludge.

Skittlesss · 16/11/2016 19:43

Ooh I was just thinking earlier that the Mum must be a secret drinker or something as she is just TOO cheery.

My children have decided it's their favourite show. :( hope they don't get the wrong idea about what mums should be like.

Spottyladybird · 16/11/2016 19:44

Tim has all his adult teeth, he must be about 9, playing a 5 year old. If they'd made another series his voice would be breaking but he'd be playing a 6 year old.

Mum is v annoying, twintastically annoying!

ryderandthepups · 16/11/2016 19:46

Nunn, cannot stop laughing! This thread has really cheered me up after a shit day. Smile

Ilovenannyplum · 16/11/2016 19:47

She's a smug super mum.
I can't stand her Confused

The Nan is pretty smug too. I see a theme emerging here....
