TELETUBBIES anyone else used to watch, with their dc, 10 years ago.. there was a

[elasticbandstand]

funny lady.
naughy naughty naughty naughty WHAT.. we are wracking our brains.
had a big teapost.

They're still showing them, despite their advanced age.

And their obvious crapness.

It was Whybird on Mondays, Dot on Wednesdays and Tent (???) on Fridays - what was Tuesdays?

The mad Welsh cat (Poppy?) was irritating but well-meaning.

we liked the roundabout shop.

Lovely peggy patch with the cat poppy (with her fishy wallpaper and when she slept she snored fishishishishish, fishishsishishish)

sardines

I always thought the cat was Liverpudlian?

Oh the joys of having older children - I have never seen In the Night Garden! But surely it can't be worse than The Fimbles or that other mad programme (whose name I can't remember now)

Boobahs!

could not understand boobahs
teletubbies was irritating, so repetative, but my dd learnt to count thanks to it!

go on, 1 2 3 4 5

Oh, was she, tamum? You're probably right - I can't remember [forgetful old lady emoticon]

She was probably putting it on anyway so it may have veered wildly from one to the other

so anyway.. was the funny ldy saying naughty to a variety of things? teddy bear, teapot?? mow cow?

oh dd LOVED naughty lady

There was a naughty fluffy cloud too....
Tamzin her name is...

well remembered spooky
MN is definately the place to go for those answered questions in my head

Oh yes, the fluffy cloud. And there was a yellow cow according to Google, I am not going mad. I did find this rather hilarious fact on a German chatboard:

"In the Mittens episode (on the Musical Playtime video), Tinky Winky wears some mittens. These mittens are NOT worn over his hands as we are led to believe. They replace his purple hands"

It's the tone of righteous indignation I love.

She scares me.

zat is not good enough is it tanum
lol

naughty crown.

Tamum - i finally saw the spooky teddy thing at the windows recently - that has been big joke in our house for about 6 years as my scared the living shit out of my nephew - he went on about MAN SINGING!, MAN SINGING!! for ages, so funny..

I thought funny lady was brilliant!

yellow cow, that must be it. naughty naughty naughty naughty yellow cow.

Oh that's just the same iloverosycheeks, ds would make me turn it off straight away with just those words!
