The one where Mr Tumble made me laugh til the tears ran down my leg ...

OK so to start I need to make something clear. I love Mr Tumble. I love Justin, and DD also loved watching him with Sarah Jane in the Higgledy House. So I was delighted to see him at Camp Bestival last year (and even....squeee! ... shake his hand!) and hope to see him there again this year, we like to learn makaton and he is very good at entertaining the children.....so now you know my admiration for him i can share my laughter at taking some of the Something Special magazine (the Mr tumble magazine by the BBC) out of context. If it doesn't make you snigger I shall wonder if we should still be friends.

Without further ado i give you................inappropriate Mr tumble picture No1


In case you can't see it - Grandad Tumble (and a work colleague described him as 'more creepy uncle than grandad) has a speech bubble asking you to 'Touch Me!' Nice! well as you know I have touched Mr Tumble so I moved with delight to see what else the lovely Mr tumble was up to.

I'm not sure any explanation is needed for the other pictures. I think they speak for themselves, enjoy.





so there you have it ladies, gentlemen and assorted Mr Tumble lovers!

And to show how much I really love him I bought the magazine and am giving it away to the person that makes me laugh hardest with a comment on this blog.....................go. (open to any country you like, but not posting to the international space station....) This offer now closed. Magazine sent under plain brown packaging to the lucky winner

  1. Sorry for not being funny, but I like his Eric Morecambe in the "Hey Hey" pic - there's a fellow who knows his history.

    My two have grown out of Mr. Tumble's ouevre now, but I was always very fond of him - you never got the feeling that he viewed children's tv as a stepping stone to something else.

  2. I'm sure Something Special and Gigglebiz are written purely to make adults spit their tea out with laughter at hidden innuendo. I'll send this to PapaGB, he's bound to have something to say that will make you laugh.

  4. Not quite sure I'd want the magazine after you've finished with it!
    However, you aren't alone with your ponderings about a Mr Tumble in the Hay. Here's a post I wrote this week: http://bundance.blogspot.com/2011/06/shg-marry-avoid-edinburgh-moonwalk.html

  5. Bwah ha ha! Glad I'm not the only Mr Tumble/Justin Fan! :D

    Always amused by his anytics and the level of humour I hope B'zoid doesn't pick up on, I usually managed to keep it to a slight side-smirk and laconic eyebrow raise. But on occasion yes, peppermint tea dost snort forth from one's nostrils!!! xx

    "Hello Tommy".
    Sweet. Daft though.

    ... and then a bit of wee comes out!

    Bye bye my little pastry cutters :-)

  7. Oh my jimini cricket this is hilarious; since I'm already having, um, special time with Justin in my slumber, and phone calls with him for work it's all becoming a bit of a hormonal jumble for me! I love him, the kids love him, he's thoroughly lovely - and now he's asking me to touch him, telling me I'm something special... kiss kiss Mister Fletcher, furreals!
