the subject title says it all really. ds has just discovered Bob and dh and i have been trying to work out what the relationship is between bob and wendy. have seen the episodes where they met as "kids" but later episodes suggest some unresolved sexual tension we reckon.. there must be someone out there who has seen every episode and knows?? thanks

Definite UST - well, Wendy fancies Bob, at least. I have a feeling Bob may not be Into Girls...

It's a bit Dr and Rose...

realllllly?

I thought Wendy was more likely to be interested in Mrs Bob

clearly not!

I am obviously missing out on some major bob storylines.

Still, I suppose it's my own fault. The kids watch it so quietly and raptly that I tend to mumsnet get on with essential housework when it's on.

Wendy loves Bob

Bob loves his machines

Wasn't it ever thus..?

fryalot · 01/07/2008 20:47

mutt - are you sure you're not getting confused with Debbie does Sunflower Valley?

They are fuck-buddies.

Snaf · 01/07/2008 20:50

Spud always reminds me of Ken Livingstone.

UnquietDad · 01/07/2008 20:51

Spud is really quite scary. He reminds me of Davros.

fryalot · 01/07/2008 20:51

it's his voice, I think... he reminds me of red ken as well

well i am glad to see we aren't the only people who suspected there was something a bit more to Bob and Wendy than just an innocent work relationship..

And who fancies who in Fireman Sam? Was a bit shocked the other day when I was (sorry, DS and I were) watching an early episode when Elvis meets enny for the first time and is clearly smitten. I was quite suprised. And does Dilys fancy Trevor of have I been reading too much into it?

mankymummy · 02/07/2008 12:38

and what about miss hooley and pc plum?

they keep disappearing off bird watching and other such dubious activities....

freakypenguin · 02/07/2008 12:39

it says in a BtB book we have that wendy is bob's partner - but watching the barn dance episode with the awkward "goodnight" at wendy's door, i can only assume they mean partner in the professional sense.

agree it is ambiguous! don't think DS1 (3) picks up on it though!

fairylights · 02/07/2008 12:41

gosh, now you mention it most of these kiddies shows are rife with unspoken love/lust. I guess the poor souls who write them must have to do something to keep themselves amused when writing the scripts..

While we're at it... what about Upsy Daisy and Iggle Piggle? I think he's probably her gay best friend but they seem to occasionally cross the line...

MuffinMclay · 02/07/2008 13:17

Unrequited love. Bob fails to spot all hints from Wendy that she would like to take things further.

In the Bobblesberg Winter Games film they have candlelit dinners together, but then Bob goes off to share a room with Spud.

I have watched a lot of Bob...

fairylights · 02/07/2008 20:53

Bob shares a room with Spud??!! thats just freaky..

And yet even that hasn't made Bob sit up and take notice...Where does she go from here?

He has got a brother...
