Lurching from one disaster to the next.

70s Wombles.

edit: No wait. This might be 90s Wombles. It's animated puppettoon stuff. I thought the Wombles were guys in Womble suits.

Both series' were animated. The 1990's series was made in Canada, with Canadian-accented voices/narration, while the 1970's series was made in England, with Bernard Cribbens doing all the voices/narration. Also, the Canadian series features about 12 Womble characters, while the UK series only has 7.

The guys in suits were just for things like promotion of the albums etc..

/me realises that he knows way too much about such things...

No, that was just Mike Batt and the music. The Wombles series was the animated pupettoon stuff. Voiced by Bernard Cribbins, as I recall.

Edit: X-post with jimi. If you know too much about this stuff, then so do I....

SILENT VELCRO??? That's so fucking cool!

I'm relieved to know that when Min was talking about skivvies, she did not mean the color of their underwear. I was quite perturbed.

Phew. Okay, I've definitely got Bernard Cribbens credited here.

Well he was talking to Jackie Stallone who had a book about Asstrology and something on it said fanny-grams.

Also, Jackie Stallone is S-C-A-R-Y.
