Gawd, am I the only one who hates Balamory?

We don't often have kids TV on here (interrupts my Frasier and Will and Grace viewing) and DD is only 10 months but occasionally it's useful for distracting her. I've got it on at the moment and it's really getting on my tits!

Archie can't act and appears to be very embarrassed at being in children's TV, kind of like Colin Firth in really bad rom coms!

Now Big Cook Little Cook I can get on board with

DD used to cry at Balymory even when we whistled the theme tune, likes frasir and Will and Grace, has been through her Big Cook Little Cook phase.

There is something very wrong about PC Plum

We cared for 2 boys a few years back who would only watch BarneyNo other programme/video would do and if i needed a few quiet minutes, which I frequently did, on went the video (shiver)

gawd I hated that purple monstrosity

Wasn't there someone on here who had a crush on either Big Cook or Little Cook?

It's much more fun as soon as you realise that:

Edie is the village Madam
Archie and Plummie are a closet gay couple
Miss Hoolie is a right goer
Pocket & Sweet are running a benefit scam
Josie Jump is on uppers
Spencer is her dealer

Your not alone, I hate Balamory too. Juliet Cadzow who plays Edie was @ the Cbeebies tour last year, my dd loved her being there.

LOL UnquietDad - DH and I have our own version of a Balamory song...

My CBeebies hate of the week is Clifford. Actually, more his obnoxious owner, Emily Elizabeth. Vile.

my favourite ever haiku on the haiku threads was:

What's the story with
Balamory, wouldn't you
like to know. No thanks.

I've never seen it but do get it confused with ballykissangel

billa · 21/05/2008 20:47

Pmsl @ calmcalmcalm, I like it. Got anymore?

I guess the BBC doesn't pay its actors enough to get their teeth fixed MISS HOOLIE. Don't know why that winds me up so much but I have to leave the room when she comes on.

Balamory is very bad, but Me Too is even worse. I just want to give Granny Murray a great big slap - patronising old baggage.

It's been said before but you can't beat Doodle Doo.

Thankfully though, my Cbeebies days are more or less over.
