Some Bagpuss icons

[idontlikegravy]

So, thanks to a discussion with jinxed_wood, I've been inspired to make some icons for cult kids shows from the 70s and 80s. Feel free to snag, just comment and credit, this is the first of a series of them so please let me know what you think (especially if they're rubbish or I'll just keep making them). If anyone has any show requests, just comment here.

Wow! I have no clue about this show, but now, I want that doll. AND the cat. And those shoe boat!!!
I believe I probably have misspent my childhood...

I believe you have. Check out the credits here on YouTube. It more or less explains the brilliance of the entire show. :)

OMG! That was cute. And, of course, after watch the intro I did some digging, and why, why, OH, WHY WE NEVER HAVE IT IN HERE?!?!?!?!?!

These are really cool, I was neer really a bagpuss fan but even so these are a great blast from the past. Hmm think I shall steal Professor Yaffle. I'm excited to see which series you do next.

Thanks! I'm kinda working my way through my DVDs at the moment (yes, I have the DVDs), so next will probably be The Flumps or Chorlton and the Wheelies, but I plan on doing Mr Benn, Pigeon Street, Dangermouse, Jamie and the Magic Torch, and anything else I can get my hands on!

Like I said, requests also taken, so if there's a favourite I've missed, let me know :)

Next up is either The Flumps or Chorlton and the Wheelies.

Oh the nostalgia!!!

And I love the icon you used for this post too - I spent a whole summer at my grandparents' in France watching that cartoon in French every day, before coming home to realise that it also came in English *snigger*

Fantastic. I snagged a couple of the mouse organ ones, and Professor Yaffle.
