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?

[quote tinylittleyou]@Swimmingiscancelled snog mr bloom, marry mister maker (seems like an all round good egg) and avoid mr tumble[/quote]
Exactly the same. I couldn't marry Mr Bloom, not with that fake accent. Mister Maker seems good with his hands (and has turned into a bit of a silver fox).

My husband has a thing for Captain Captain. To be fair, she has some moves when dancing!

Seen Justin Fletcher at GOSH a few times and would have a very low opinion of him except for the fact he was very nice to the children he was paid to see (wouldn’t have anything to do with the others though).

Nanny0gg · 03/02/2021 19:08

Mr Maker is horrible.

SabrinaMorningstar · 03/02/2021 19:09

@Spacecudet

Snog- Mr Bloom Marry- Mr Maker Avoid- Mr Tumble
Yy they would be my choices too. I always liked Mr Maker. The fact he might be Banksy just makes it even better I know the Banksy rumour was actually about Art Attack but it could just as easily be Mr Maker Grin

@Nanny0gg what’s wrong with mr maker?

Who is Mr Tumble, please?

HUCKMUCK · 03/02/2021 19:11

@VelveteenChair

The Tweenies was ruined for me when I discovered that Jake grew up to be Mr Tumble.
😂 me too!!
KisstheTeapot14 · 03/02/2021 19:12

Please tell me he's gay. I can't cope with all this.

And now you tell me that Mr Bloom has a southern accent?

All the veils have been ripped away and I am left with cold reality.

Butchyrestingface · 03/02/2021 19:13

I am disinclined to believe anything SJ says about Mr Tumble because her account of how she was sacked by the Beeb sounds like A-Grade bullshit and would have 'employment tribunal' written all over it if true.

Margotshypotheticaldog · 03/02/2021 19:13

I would totally shag Mr Bloom. He wouldn't have to talk to me, just wear the hat. And nothing else.

SpiderGwen · 03/02/2021 19:13

My kids are too old, I don't know Mr Bloom and b arely remember Mr Maker.

Now Chris from Doodle Doo, on the other hand...

I also had a soft spot for Kevin from the UK version of Blues Clues. nearly 20 years on and I still hear "The Post Is Here" song when the letterbox rattles. I'm old.

stanley10 · 03/02/2021 19:15

I know someone who went on an OLD with mr tumble. She had very small children. Imagine how you’d feel if mr Tumble rocked up for a date.

TheMoth · 03/02/2021 19:16

I saw Mr tumble on bbc once, probably about 10 years ago, being interviewed about something or other. It was when he said he quite fancied playing Hamlet one day, that he suddenly took on a kind of Bennett-esque quality.

SarahAndQuack · 03/02/2021 19:16

@PrawnCorset

I don't believe for a second Mr Tumble has a mother. He was cloned off a scary clown doll by some Cbeebies committee.
Grin I love this. So true.
Margotshypotheticaldog · 03/02/2021 19:17

Sorry, just realised the option was snog marry avoid. I'd snog him, then shag him.

BrumBoo · 03/02/2021 19:19

Makes you wonder who else is hiding their true self!

Is Maddie really a Scouser?

Is Andy actually bald?

Is Duggee's clubhouse running an illegal gambling den at night?

Hmm Hmm

Butchyrestingface · 03/02/2021 19:19

I'm watching an interview of Mr Tumble with Phillip and Holly.

Keeping it clean so far...

poundoflard · 03/02/2021 19:20

The thread with the matter who shagged had a relationship with Mr Tumble was named after his nickname for her "Sweet sugar dumpling." It was at least 10-11 yrs ago.
Very good lover apparently iirc!

Saw mr Bloom on celebrity master mind, not only is he not northern, he's also not that bright 😄

Insomniacexpress · 03/02/2021 19:22

The same story was put out by her years ago. Hardly news- maybe she’s desperate for cash.

poundoflard · 03/02/2021 19:22

MNETTER not matter. Stupid auto correct

Nanny0gg · 03/02/2021 19:24

[quote tinylittleyou]@Nanny0gg what’s wrong with mr maker?[/quote]
Dunno. He overacts and I just don't like him. Loathe the programme!

Colouringaddict · 03/02/2021 19:25

@Swimmingiscancelled

I think it's time for a game of snog, marry, avoid.. Mr Tumble, Mr Bloom or Mr Maker?
I had a bit of a thing for Mr Maker, he looked like he’d be good with his hands 😂
KisstheTeapot14 · 03/02/2021 19:27

Fair enough. My reality has shifted.

Mr Bloom may be dim, he may be a pretend Northerner,
but I would still shag him. For Sure.

Our local museum has a worker who looks like Andy from Dino adventures. I do wonder if he has a magic time grandfather clock as well.

DearPrudence · 03/02/2021 19:32

Did I dream it, or did Justin Fletcher do a Q&A on here once?

Also, I've never seen Mr Maker or Bloom, so...

Snog - Captain Feathersword
Marry - Sportacus
Avoid - Mr Tumble

Pinklewinkle · 03/02/2021 19:33

So disappointing when you find out a kids "national treasure" isn't great in real life. Old enough to shudder thinking about Jim'll Fix It......used to be a fave as a kid.....remember everyone wanted to get a badge?

Yuk. Just Yuk. Makes me feel ill now.
