As for hubby and I, we will watch this on Saturday night with Teddy. Subsequently, I will provide you with an update re: his verbosity and suggest you do the same with Crystal and wife so we can compare notes re: language advancement. (Teddy could also do with some singing lessons).
How exciting!  |
It's still wonderful isn't it. The same team did another favorite here called 'Andy Pandy'. Peter Cook and Dudley Moore did a brilliant black parody of this too!

As a child I loved them and many others including 'Muffin the Mule' presented by the great Sir John Mill's sister 'Annette'.

Crystal is a great fan of Muffin and gets very excited when we all sing the aquarium song accompanied by Dad on the piano! Somtimes its hard to determine whose more nuts than who, in this home of ours! I attach a picture of her mothers latest 'haute couture' production, which she won't be wearing with her dad - that's for sure. Crystal's expression says it all!
