Mr tumble drama

So old CBeebies presenter (Sarah-Jane if anyone remembers the olden days of CBeebies) is in the newspapers saying she was best friends with mr tumble but he completely ghosted her after cbeebies sacked her (without even letting her know) when she did an underwear photo for animal rights.
Now mr tumbles mum is in the papers saying its a load of rubbish.
I used to see a lot of CBeebies back then and realised I never noticed that Sarah-Jane disappeared or read about this at the time.
AIBU to think they were a bit harsh and that mr tumble shouldn’t have ignored her?

Yeah, Robert the Robot is Steve Kynman. He and Judge Rinder are definitely different people.

Ranger Hamza, I would marry that man in a heartbeat. I think he's a wildlife photographer. Seems a lovely, gentle, engaging cuddly bear.

Robert the Robot isn't Judge Rinder. It's a completely different bloke

Phew! I don't remember much about Justin's House, although I quite liked Gigglebiz. Blush

Everything Mr tumble makes for cbeebies always involves him as the main star or playing every single character, at one point it was like he’d taken over CBeebies

And he's the only one that doesn't appear in those little scenes they do in between episodes! When they are with Dodge the dog or in the cbeebies house.

Can I just clarify that I don't really think that Steve Kynman is actually the same person as Judge Rinder - just like I don't really think that Andy and Fatima are actually the same person Grin

I keep reading Ranger Hamza as Ranger Hazmat Blush

iklboo · 04/02/2021 13:27

Ah @WeBuiltThisBuffetOnSausageRoll - but have you ever seen Andy & Fatima in the sane room? Hmmm?

I totally didn't Google Andy years ago as we were convinced he was Fatima's son.

Ha ha I haven't seen Justin's House for years so Robert the robot could have been anyone. Andy on the other hand.....

Totally off track, but my first thought when I saw the PETA pictures was that she should have picked different knickers. I think she was going for nude look, but they just looked like they'd gone grey in the wash.

PolkadotsAndMoonbeams · 04/02/2021 14:46

I've just been googling, and Tikkabilla had a presenter called Beverly Hills!

Peppermintpatty24 · 04/02/2021 17:34

Does anyone actually care....apart from Sarah Jane...and possibly her mother 🤔

HidingUnderARock · 04/02/2021 17:40

She always gave me the creeps with the way she spoke and the sort of looks she gave. Creepy creepy.

I'm not at all surprised she took her clothes off in a promoting vegan stunt. Cos that will persuade people to go vegan for all the right reasons.
smh.

WeBuiltThisBuffetOnSausageRoll · 04/02/2021 18:48

Steve Kynman was pressured into denying also being JR on Twitter - which makes me wonder if the robot doth protest too much Grin

He seems like the kind of guy you'd be happy to take home to meet your man

Your nan!!

MindyStClaire · 04/02/2021 19:48

Robert the robot is also in a load of the live shows they air on a Saturday morning, he's William Shakespeare in more than one I think.

Amanduh · 04/02/2021 19:58

I’ve met him and he was lovely. Know lots of people who have been or are colleagues with him doing a lot of voiceover work. He is known in the industry for being a decent, nice bloke!

olbndanszombie · 04/02/2021 20:15

Sarah-Jayne has also been on the adult channels wearing a black basque. My mate's adult son found her late one night and recorded it for his mum because he couldn't believe it was the same woman his younger siblings watched on beebies! She saved it to show the rest of us. About 10 years ago

niugboo · 04/02/2021 20:16

She got her tits for PETA. Awful organisation. She had to be sacked and deserved to be ghosted.

MilesToGoBeforeISleep · 04/02/2021 20:18

Isn't Robert the Robot Fireman Sam?

iklboo · 04/02/2021 20:34

I've just had a really random & gross thought.

JollyGreenGiantess · 04/02/2021 20:39

@IHateCoronavirus

Ummm, Cliff isn’t asexual. He lives with his long term male partner. Shock it’ll break my mother’s heart!

As for everyone wanting to marry/shag Mr Maker, are you all mad? The thought of those shapes jigging about at the bottom of the bed each night would terrify me!

Ex priest I believe

I keep reading Ranger Hamza as Ranger Hazmat Blush
My DD called him Ranger Hamster. I hadn’t seen the show. I thought it was a cartoon about a parks-n-Rec type hamster situation
Eleganz · 04/02/2021 20:56

Justin Fletcher is a business man who understands his brand and market. As soon as that story broke he will have know he had to distance himself from it as quickly as possible. Sad for Sarah-Jayne, but she must have expected it.
