Who can remember Pob?

Question

The Puppet wearing the stripy pink and yellow jumper, he spat on the screen and wrote his name in it, then wiped it off.

I used to love this program as a kid.

Here's a link to remind you:

Answer 1

Ahhhh, Pob.
I had forgotten him.
Bless! I bet it would be politically incorrect to let a puppet spit all over the screen these days.

I still long for a jumper just like his!

Thanks for reminding my tired old memory!

Answer 2

We called my brother Pob as a nickname - not sure why though - looked nothing like him - just had a stripey jumper. Did you all try Pob contests on who could rasp the farthest or was that just me????

Answer 3

I used to love watching him on Sundays. he was on Channel 4 just before lunchtime.
I don't remember much apart from Nigel Kennedy playing his violin, but my brother and I watched it every week without fail, so something must have attracted us.

BRING BACK POB!!!!!!

He didnt spit on the screen, he gummed it up by breathing on it (like a cold window) and then wrote his name. And it was a total load of bollocks to watch.
