The Return of the Clangers!

[Major Clanger]

I haven't been around much lately - due to a lot of reasons.

But I wondered if anyone had seen this...

I know I've seen a few episodes of it.. My mum and my older sister seem to like it

I probably won't be watching the new one..

Great news,imo.( Ok I promise not to call them Moon M***) The original Smallfilms DVDs and toys etc already sell well,so this is a logical step.

With Pete Firmin and his son onboard,I'm hoping we won't end up with hipster or emo Clangers sighing and shipping all over the place.
It won't be the same without Oliver Postgate,but hopefully today's kids will love them anyway.

I'll definitely check out the new show.

If I don't get a Roger Delgado cameo I will be upset.


ALL I IS SAYIN!


yes I know he is dead but I don't care.

It might be quite fun to see what they do with the five million Prolly take real Clangers to the real moon for that much

With 5 Mill,I expect state of the art graphics,top notch scenes and NO lens flare.

[Bagpuss]

I had to post this .It's one my fave Delgado moments as well as a lovely homage to the orginal Clangers!

[The Flyattractor]

Yes. Back when TV was good.

Nostagia can't get finer than DW and The Clangers!

Question really is : will the remake get kids to check out the new version or the old?

Agreed and at the vid, so cool,wonder what the children will make of it

Maybe they'll be encouraged to check out the old eps of DW and the Original Clangers?
Or more likely they'll think my generation should be in Care Homes and go back to Tweeting Beiber instead of watching The Beeb...

[pookey]

prolly
