	screenonline: Wombles, The (1973-75, 1998-99)
		The Wombles were brought to life by stop-motion animation and the vocal talents of narrator
		Most stories centred on the ingenuity of Wombles Wellington or Tobermory in making all manner of wacky inventions from the discarded bits and pieces humans leave behind, exploiting the contraptions' capacity for slapstick.
		At this time, contrary to popular belief, the Wombles were never clearly anti-litter or pro-green issues; it is easy to see them as opportunist scavengers who recycle because it suits them.

	The Wombles - Nostalgia Central
		The furry, long-nosed Wombles of Wimbledon Common were England's foremost ecologists in the 1970s, "making good use of the things that they find - things that the everyday folk leave behind".
		Orinoco was certainly the fattest Womble in the burrow, and frequently needed forty winks before he could get up the energy to begin work.
		In 1998 the Wombles were back again, with four new members to the clan; Stepney (a cockney Womble), Obidos (a pan piper from Brazil), Shanshi (from China) and the skateboarding Alderney.

	The Wombles - Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
		The term 'Womble' came from a frightful experience Beresford had when first meeting a deformed worker where he moaned at her before his death that he just wanted to go home, his slurred warped tougne sounding as if he said "wom..ble..grr..hmm".
		He is good at telling the young Wombles the history of their world, in order to continue the hatred his people feel for the company who left them here years before.
		Many wombles worry he will eat himself to death before the deformaties kill his already short life, but other think that as long as he is happy he should be left alone, as very little do their people find happiness.

	The Wombles
		The Wombles are fictional characters created by British author Elizabeth Beresford[?], originally appearing in a series of children's novels from 1968.
		All of the Wombles have names taken from an old Atlas; the main characters were Great Uncle Bulgaria (the Wombles' leader), Tobermory[?], Orinoco, Bungo[?], Tomsk, Wellington and Madame Cholet[?].
		After the original series the Wombles were re-invented from 1998 as a cartoon after FilmFair was acquired by the Canadian company Cinar Films[?] in 1996, a number of new geographically-named Wombles were introduced.

	Wombles at the European Social Forum (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The Wombles themselves, who are an extreme example of this tendency, have since attempted to justify their behaviour at the London ESF with the argument that it was undemocratically organised.
		The Wombles’ actions at the Dublin EU summit, and their subsequent disruption of the London ESF, were entirely in line with this philosophy.
		If the Wombles’ preferred libertarian, "horizontal" form of organisation is to win wider support, this will be done by demonstrating in practice its superiority as an alternative to the hierarchical methods they oppose, not by arrogantly disrupting and obstructing the activities of those they have as yet failed to convince.

	The Wombles - ClassicKidsTv.co.uk
		Wombles are pointy-nosed furry creatures (though the characters in the original books resembled ordinary 'teddy bears') that live in burrows, where they help the environment by recycling rubbish in useful and ingenious ways.
		The Wombles was adapted as a British children's television programme, The Wombles, a series of five-minute stop-motion episodes produced by FilmFair for the BBC and voiced by Bernard Cribbins.
		The Wombles were re-invented from 1998 as a cartoon after FilmFair was acquired by the Canadian company Cinar Films in 1996, with a number of new geographically-named Wombles being introduced.

	Jedi's Paradise - Childrens TV - The Wombles
		Created by Elisabeth Beresford, the idea for the Wombles developed from a winter stroll on Wimbledon Common with her children and her first Wombles book was published in 1968.
		Wombles are small furry creatures with long noses that live in an underground burrow on Wimbledon Common, London, UK.
		Keeping pace with technology hasn't been a problem for the Wombles and they now have a Wom-copter and a Burrow Buggy to aid their search for useful items, and a Wom-fax to keep in touch with other Wombles around the world.

	UK Indymedia - "WOMBLES 7" (Site not responding. Last check: )
		In their statements police consistently refer to "the violence of the WOMBLES" and to their "reputation for carrying concealed weapons", despite the fact that the WOMBLES are consistently monitored by a Police Forward Intelligence Team (FIT), are extensively filmed on all demonstrations, and have never been convicted of violence or charged with carrying weapons.
		At worst, the WOMBLES are ‘guilty’ of highlighting the repressive behaviour of the Metropolitan Police in their handling of “public order situations”, and to advocate that people protect themselves from police violence on demonstrations by wearing padding and helmets.
		This is a direct continuation of the police repression witnessed at Genoa, on the policing of the Brighton demo in September and the attack on a recent demonstration outside the Italian embassy on Saturday, 2 March 2002.

		The WOMBLES (White Overalls Movement Building Libertarian Effective Struggles) are a loose Anti-Capitalist group in London that once dressed in white overalls with padding and helmets at protests, mimicking Tute Bianche a group active in Italy.
		They should not be confused with the British animated children's television characters, The Wombles from whom they drew their name, white colour, and environmental consciousness.
		WOMBLES are referenced in a song by UK band the Libertines entitled "Time for Heroes".

		Originally adopted from the italian movement "Ya Basta!" ("it's enough!"), the womble collective involves donning white overalls, body padding and gas masks and taking on the police in a controlled, tactical method.
		Since the liberation of humanity and creation of global freedom and equality is not to be stopped by a few thugs with big sticks, it is time to provide self-protection from the depredations of the constabulary.
		The wombles uses a multiplicity of tactics ranging from violent confrontation with agents of the state, to the creation of social centres.

	Why Wombles?
		Well, of course, growing up in the 1970s, the Wombles were the children's TV of choice, and their environmental message of recycling and reusing rubbish made a huge impression on me. They were eco-warriors ahead of their time!
		Then in 1990 there were a couple of new Wombles specials made for TV, and a whole load of new Wombles toys hit the shops.
		I was able to track down countless Wombles items from around the world, both original memorabilia and new items that weren't for sale in the UK.

		The Wombles' still stand up as a great tale, and is now rated as a classic.
		At working age, all the wombles choose their name from Great Uncle Bulgaria's atlas and there are some great characters - adventurous Bungo, Orinoco who was 'rather fond of forty winks' and shy Wellington.
		Although the original illustrations for Wombles make them look like cuddly teddy bears, when the series was adapted for television the puppets created by Ivor Wood formed the basis of how we imagine wombles to look like today.
