Sportacus has a lovely bum though, despite the dodgy moustache! (how sad am I)- how do you know he's 43 emmark? think Night Garden is fab, can get both kids bathed and in pj's by 6.15 with the bribe of watching Maca Paca and Icle Picke, just dreading the series ending!

yabu

i love it precisely because ds loves it

i don't have to watch it - i can mn for half an hour every weekday evening

notasheep · 29/06/2007 22:39

i adore it and ds says i am UpseyDaisy

My sister (who is 30 years old and has a really good job in the city) is staying with me and was feeling poorly today, I found her watching this today laughing at the "naked teletubbies" I can only say I thnk she must have had a temperature

Whoooosh · 29/06/2007 22:48

YABU-dd aged 2 loves it and it gives me 20 mins to have a calm glass of wine

katelyle · 29/06/2007 22:49

My ds and I watch it together whenever we can. We love it - but we are the only ones in the family who do. It's a guilty secret - almost as if we were sneaking off for a crafty fag! We catch each other's eyes and mouth "Ninky Nonk" ath each other. The proper response is "Pinky Ponk" FAB!

j20baby · 29/06/2007 22:54

katelyle, thats so cute

emmark13 · 30/06/2007 08:15

I know he's 43 because sadly... I looked it up on Wikipedia!

merryberry · 30/06/2007 08:37

I loathed it on first site, and am now hypnotised by it and wish ds would watch it more (current obsession, pocoyo) as it is so calming and gentle.

merryberry · 30/06/2007 08:37

sight, not site. freudian slip.

muppetgirl · 30/06/2007 10:46

You lot have given me a good old giggle!!!

I hate it to. I just had to add this.

I saw the advert and have never even seen it or let the kids it just looks freaky.

ChorusLine · 30/06/2007 23:22

Sorry but we love it - have pre-ordered the beanies!

katelyle · 01/07/2007 07:23

Beanies? Nobody told me there were Beanies! Where can I get beanies???

americantrish · 01/07/2007 11:45

pmsl jam!!!!

Having looked at it from that point of view i totally agree -it is science fiction for kids which i now totally understand why i hate it so much -i hate startreck, starwars in fact, anything to do with fantasy/science fiction!!!

I was looking for the explanation and now i've found it!
