Back in the eighties, all teenagers looked like they were about 45. That's why kids' sitcom Metal Mickey looks like it's about a group of middle-aged layabouts having nervous breakdowns.

"The most important... the most beautiful... the most magical... saggy old cloth cat in the whole wide world."
It's hard to make fun of Bagpuss, given its status as one of the nation's most fondly-remembered kids' tv shows. Although this episode has some saucy drawings in it so we managed.
Please note - there were some technical issues with the recording, so you may notice more editing than usual. It's free, what more do you want?

David Hamilton plays hangman with a giant keyboard. But no actual hanging man. It was a family show.
It's like Mel Giedroyc's "Letterbox" but a lot more expensive-looking. I mean a TV show called "Letterbox." Not Mel Giedroyc's actual letterbox at her house. I bet that's quite a reasonably-priced looking letterbox.

Can we pretend that we knew this episode was going to be uploaded the week of Halloween, and use the tenuous link that we're watching Creepy Crawlies, a gentle animation about some friendly insects, in an
attempt to be topical?
No? Bloody sod you then.

It's nearly Halloween, so what better way to celebrate than with a rubbish sitcom about the ghost of a Jewish stereotype? Probably by watching almost literally anything else. But it's done now, so shut up.
