Slapnut Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Does anybody remember the series of adverts that (I think) led to a documentary just before the turn of the millennium, where a kid in a suit was walking through various TV shows? I vaguely remember him walking through Trumpton while saying "Hugh Pugh Barney McGrew etc.", and also running away from the lion from Narnia. Â I know it's not much to go on, but it's just popped into my memory and I'm dying to find them and watch the documentary, if it even exists. Â Does anybody know what I'm talking about?

Paid Members Surf Digby Posted November 9, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted November 9, 2014 I don't remember it, to be honest. It sounds a bit like one of the BBC's "look at all the great stuff we do" adverts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slapnut Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 It pretty much was, as far as I remember. I'm sure it had some sort of focus on the new millennium, but Google is proving useless in this instance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Surf Digby Posted November 9, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted November 9, 2014 I searched YouTube for "bbc children's tv promo" and then link hopped until I saw the thumbnail of Mr Ben with the child in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members bAzTNM#1 Posted November 11, 2014 Paid Members Share Posted November 11, 2014 Hi! Christmas present question. Does anybody know of anywhere (online) that sells a Postman Pat football? My wee nephew would love and slabber all over it if he could get his hands on one. You'd think somebody would sell them, but I can't find anything. Anybody know? Thanks!
