auntie Mabels carbon footprint must be huge just why does she use her plane to go down the shops??
I'm sorry but I really don't think Mickey John would pass an ofsted inspection - no lesson planning and what school secretary does teachers marking?? and don't get me started on dr. juno who cleaned the hospital the other day... and granny murray had her mindees cleaning her house!!

My dh has started to use "Jakers" as his expletive of choice.

Nina and the Neurons is also on the list of programmes I shout at. "What a daft question" and "no that experiment does not prove what you are asserting and even if it did, it would go no way to answering the original pointless question".

I read in the Guardian Guide this week that Big Cook and Little Cook are presenters on Nuts TV. (Obviously not dressed as BC and LC) It doesn't bear thinking about.

i hate nina and her bloody neurons

nancy75 · 18/02/2008 22:11

why has one of the neurons got what sounds like a bad jamaican accent?

madamez · 18/02/2008 22:12

SOmeone (I think it was UQD) posted a link to some clips of BCLC in their earlier comedian incarnation. What was really sick, wrong and disturbing about that was I almost found myself fancying the ginger one...

Oh and farking Jakers, yeuch! I maintain that it is made by the sort of Americans who used to fund Noraid.

skyatnight · 18/02/2008 22:13

The educational programmes are the rubbish multi-coloured ones with labotomised characters. These include Nina and the Neurons and Grannie Murray and Story-Makers, etc..

skyatnight · 18/02/2008 22:15

Sacrilege Madamez! Jakers has good, entertaining, moral stories with interesting characters. It is not made by Americans!

mumclaire · 18/02/2008 22:15

Ah jakers - this leads me to another musing... I think its quite orwellian - if all the characters are animals why are some dressed in clothes and act like humans and yet the sheep are treated like sheep?? Its deeply confusing - 'all animals are equal but some are more equal than others'???
Told you I take it too seriously!!!

DS1 loves Numberjacks and Jakers

Kewcumber · 18/02/2008 22:17

when I first had DS I would watch cbeebies in horror, not beleiving that I would be forced to watch such tripe. Now DS potters and plays whilst I watch and woe-betide him if he interrupts balamory before I've discovered the solution to Spencer forgetting to buy the new baby a present.

lazarou · 18/02/2008 22:20

I like Jakers, I song the theme tune to myself all the time.

What about the other day on Me Too when Rudy dropped his takings for the day all over the floor and he was getting all upset. Just bloody pick it up and count it, there's only about twenty quid there anyway. I'm surprised he's still in business.

bigmouthstrikesagain · 18/02/2008 22:21

I effing Love Storymakers - I always listen to the Blue Cow stories

DD (22m) does the BCLC dance routine beautifully - I can't stand them myself (Cocksure Young Men - was the description in the Guardian Guide i.e. W*ers).

skyatnight · 18/02/2008 22:21

Have to admit MumClaire, I did find that weird about a recent episode of Jakers. I only saw a bit of it but it had to do with selling milk. I can see the Animal Farm connection and what would the EU say about pigs and ducks drinking cows milk - it all starts to get a bit BSE/CJD.

Feenie · 18/02/2008 22:22

I effing hate Blue Cow stories!

skyatnight · 18/02/2008 22:22

Does anyone else find that they are doing the Boogie Beebies routines on their own while their toddler looks on bemused?

lazarou · 18/02/2008 22:23

Dh's gran sounds like blue cow.

Kewcumber · 18/02/2008 22:25

oh Blue cow (swoon) I love Blue Cow stories... a scene on a typical evening..

"Oh look Gherkin, a blue cow story!"
Gherkin continues pottering with train
"we like bluse cow stories don't we" Kewcumber says desparately to justify Blue cow fetish
Gherkin contines train pottering.

nancy75 · 18/02/2008 22:25

my dh recently met boogie pete and said he is the most foul mouthed person on earth! ruined it for me!

Feenie · 18/02/2008 22:25

That's so funny, lazarou!

GooseyLoosey · 18/02/2008 22:25

Oh and did I mention those special Tweenies programmes that deal with avoiding accidents. If any CM I left the ds with let them play with shears of cleaning fluids, I would kill them but in Tweenie land it is cause for a smile and a song and a good laugh all around.

bigmouthstrikesagain · 18/02/2008 22:26

Blimey Lazarou is she Alan Bennett

Sticks out tongue at Feenie - don't care if you do Effing hate Blue Cow

Feenie · 18/02/2008 22:27

Lmao! One of the storymaker presenters looks like a crack addict, can't remember which one.

lazarou · 18/02/2008 22:28

When she phones up she says 'hello love' and I always expect her to add 'It's blue cow here' She's from leeds.

bigmouthstrikesagain · 18/02/2008 22:28

The tweenies all deserve to be wiped out in freakish accidents at home/ playgroup. They are wrong on so many levels (especially whiny bloody Jake).grrrrrrrrrrrrrr

lazarou · 18/02/2008 22:28

Feenie, is that teh really old thin one that shakes?
