This guy was responsible for many a happy hour when I was a nipper sat in front of the tv.

RIP Mr Postgate

I appreciate your grief but maybe change the title to something a bit less alarming!

Sad indeed. Our first dog was called Ivor after the engine - he was a Welsh border collie.

Bagpuss! And Noggin the Nog!

I managed to buy one of the limited editions Bagpuss they brought out a few years ago, made to the original pattern - I never realised he was pink and yellow; we only had black and white tv!!

PS Huw wants to steal my Bagpuss

I liked The Pogles. Found Ivor the Engine rather frightening and... Welsh

Have to say I thought Mr Postgate was already dead

Clangers, Pogle's Wood, Pippin and Tog. I'm tearing up just typing the words

[quote="Sean Hogan - 何祥"]I've already ordered Bagpuss - The Wilderness Years from Amazon so my daughter can share the joy in years to come. I reckon she's ready for the Clangers any day now.

If Albert doesn't want it can I have first refusal. Trumpton and Camberwick were favourites.
