		That piece of nonsense came to an abrupt end in 1998, when Bagpuss was voted 'The best Children's film ever' in a BBC nation-wide poll, and since then I can say, without undue modesty, that we have enjoyed a popularity that is no more than our due.
		Bagpuss is being shown on Nickelodeon and Channel 5 TV.

	Bagpuss in Jump The Shark
		Bagpuss will always be "relevant." My nieces love him and I believe I remember watching him in the 70's or 80's on public television.
		Cos Bagpuss is not 'relevant' and 'inclusive' and 'multi ethnic'.
		Bagpuss remains one of the golden age of children's programmes from the BBC in the 60's and 70's.

		Describing the content is difficult, but basically Bagpuss wakes up every day in the shop he lives in, and he and his friends investigate whatever has been brought to them by Emily, the owner of the shop.
		Bagpuss' friends include Gabriel the banjo-playing toad, Madeleine the motherly rag doll, the childish mice on the mouse organ (you have to see it for yourself) and Professor Yaffle, the slightly eccentric uncle-type, who is in fact a wooden book-end woodpecker.
		Bagpuss as a programme was never patronising to children, and was not afraid to use long words if they were appropriate.

		Bagpuss himself could be seen as inhabiting the earthly realm, while Emily moves on the divine plane, but this is a very traditionalist view.
		Bagpuss and his friends occupy the inner world of consciousness, and represent not forces within society but within the mind of a human being.
		Bagpuss could be said to exist within the mind of each one of us, a creative force that lies dormant but full of potential.

	Paintbox - I Hate The Clip Shows: Bagpuss
		The care and attention that went into this particular aspect of the series is still evident today, with people continually sharing memories of being frightened by Professor Yaffle, or wondering why Gabriel the Toad croaked "look, look" in the opening titles, when he talked with an ordinary voice in the rest of the programme.
		And I get the feeling that most people who claim to "like, really love" Bagpuss are of a similar age to me and haven't seen the thing for about 15 years either.
		Anyone who comes back to the series because they thought Bagpuss was 'cute' or merely just because they remember that it existed ("oh yeah, Bagpuss, it used to be on!!!" etc), will probably find it somewhat boring in comparison to their hazy childhood memories.

	Lovemarks: Bagpuss (Nomination)
		Bagpuss was made in the 1970s by Oliver Postgate and Peter Firmin in a Barn in Kent where they also made The Clangers, Noggin the Nog, Ivor the engine and Pogles Wood.
		Bagpuss, like their other programs, possessed a very special warmth and intriguing quality to it that has never quite been topped by any modern day kids TV.
		Under the warmth of Emily's love, Bagpuss and his friends would come to life, the object would be mended, the toys would sing and then Bagpuss would go to sleep and that was it until next time.

		With the demise of The Post-Bagpuss Years and Aunty Agnes, the only adult Bagpuss site currently on the net is Darkfurr; a dark (and badly spelt) vision of Bagpuss, with artists competing to create the most disturbing artwork based on the show.
