  • I had the hots for Miss Jane...mmm-mmmmm!

  • LOL I love how he sounds sarcastic and almost condescending when he says Miss Jane. Yes Miss Jane, Oh really Miss Jane?

  • To all of us kids of the 70's THIS show and Play School had a lot to do with the way we grew up. Both shows were fun with a lot of goofing around and before you knew it you were learning.

    Nothing was taken too serious but learning was always important. Even when Mr Squiggle walked off or got distracted he was always told to come back and finish his work. 'HE' never screamed 'Abuse' or 'Domestic Violence' when Miss Jane grabbed his arm, he just knew he was being told.

    I <3 my childhood :-)

  • loved it as a kid and love it even now!!

  • I LOVED MR SQUIGGLE

    STILL DO

  • I used to live in Aussie and I love this show!!!

    

  • awwwww. i miss mr squiggle. the kids shows these days are terrible. and they have lots of fighting in them... not healthy for little kids.

  • @jldaniel3600 yeah - watched a few a couple a days ago - heaps o fightin and stuff. Kids shows these days have fallen to crap!

  • OH MY GOODNESS I have not seen this in like 16 years!!! :D :D :D

  • Bring back Mr Squiggle, even if they are the repeats of the old ones, youve got plenty of channels ABC

  • He sounds like K-9

  • If my mates are running late I will yell out the old 'hurrrry up' blackboard line. :D

  • upside down upside down

  • I'd tap her so hard!!! 70's style!

    Bow-chickachicka-bowwow

  • @WILDBULL1984 Except this was the 80s, not 70s.

  • Yes miss Jane !...!  memories !!!

  • Thanks Mr Squiggle for entertaining us 4 generation, You were the best show on ABC, RIP 06/12/2010

  • This show had everything a kid like me in the 70s could want.

    Imagination, suspense, humour, not to mention a rocket, a steam shovel and a rude blackboard!

    RIP Norman H. See you on the moon.

    

  • @MrSmurfyDog Couldn't agree more MrSmurfyDog :)

  • Genius! Nice one Mr Squiggle. RIP Norman Hetherington.

  • I used to have my special dreams about Ms Jane.

  • Notice that you never see the top of Mr Squiggle's hat? There has to be something about it that makes it possible for the puppet to draw... I am thinking that Norman Hetherington may be holding the hat in some way to create pressure so the pencil can draw. I am not sure, it's just amazing.

  • 6/12/2010 RIP Mr Squiggle man Mr Norman Hetherington xx xx you made all our ABC childhoods the best!!!

  • 6/12/2010 RIP Mr Squiggle man Mr Norman Hetherington xx xx you made all our ABC childhoods the best!!!

  • RIP MR SQUIGGLE

  • @ElvisGrey you bad boy, yeah that would been very hot for you huh.

  • I remember this show, it must been 20 years or so since I last watched it.

    this show inspired a entire generation.

  • RIP Norman Hetherington, creator of Mr Squiggle, who died today.

  • i miss this fucking shit

  • epic!!

  • i so miss mr squiggle!

  • oh i hadn't read the comment below... i was all excited that i'd finally figured it out but it's already been said

  • omg! just figured out why he has that massive rod on his head! i think the guys holds that to move his head and that's how he can draw on the board!

  • the blackboard is soooo emo

  • Mr Squiggle is super trippy. The hat is attached to another pencil above, and the operator draws his picture above, and the head follows below.

  • @ElvisGrey Hahaha Snap! 

  • I Love Blackboard.. hmph... hurry uppp!!

  • I really have no idea how Mr. Squiggle is able to do that. :P

  • HU- RY UP! lol

  • Lolz i used 2 watch this timeless classic...... no wonder im all fucked up in the head

  • i swear his a scary lookin puppet, hate to see him standin at the end of ur bed lol

  • "hurry up"

    Loved it!

  • Mr squiggle, i loved this show as a kid, blackboard so wonderfully grumpy.

  • Steam shovel

  • i loved this show as a kid

  • LOL and a doughnut for an earing miss Jane

  • The voice of the black board, he is a teacher at my school he goes of when you talk about it lol.

  • Took me 20 years ... that is took me till today, to figure out he is drawing upside down holding the head... wow

  • well there you go! i was just trying to figure that out!

  • OMG! It is too!!

    I never figured that! Thanks dude!

    :D

    PS - Miss Jane was awesome!

  • yeah what a phenomenon to only realise this in adulthood lol

  • Whatever happened to the clip with Gus and Ross Ryan . . . I must have watched that on the net about a hundred times! Can anyone PLEASE update some clips with Gus the Snail?? Gus cracks me up.

  • OMG i loved mr squiggle!

    AWESOMENESS (: <3

  • u tell him miss jane

  • i love this shit!!

  • i used to LOVE this show!!! GO MR SQUGGLE!!!!!!

  • how does he draw? he's a puppet! wouldn't the strings like not press against the paper enough?

  • ah the mysteries of television haha

  • @benjaminjamesrodda, it's all in his hat. The artist must have been hanging upside down! I thought waay too much about that! LOL!

  • @JimHu114231 oh yeah! his hat's long and hard! (haha)

    ohh haha i get it now

  • @benjaminjamesrodda His Hat extends quite high and out of sight so the artist can grasp the hat and draw quite freely....

  • @benjaminjamesrodda Have you noticed how when Mr Squiggle is drawing we never see the top of his hat? My guess would be because the hat & head are rigid and on a stick of some sort. That combined with a soft charcoal or crayon would make the drawing so simple :)

    (it helps when you know a few things about marionettes)

  • @benjaminjamesrodda someone is holding his hat

  • @benjaminjamesrodda You never see the top of his hat though do ya...

  • @benjaminjamesrodda

    There's a person holding onto the top of his hat.

  • @benjaminjamesrodda He must be drawing in soft charcoal

  • @benjaminjamesrodda well actually the 'drawer' has his arm through the hat and his hand holding the pencil in his head...hence why the drawing are always upside down cause the drawer is drawer from the top...

  • @toohug01 , he would be one skinny Mother if that was true.

    Many a time I saw the top of Mr. Squiggles hat.

    You obviously never watched the programme.

    Don't EXPLAIN things you have no idea about.

  • @toohug01 , he would be one skinny Mother if that was true.

    Many a time I saw the top of Mr. Squiggles hat, and it isn't an arm.

    And you would imagine he would draw better if he had his hand there.

    You obviously never watched the programme.

    Don't EXPLAIN things you have no idea about.

    It makes you look stupid.

  • @benjaminjamesrodda i think it has something do do with his hat- like he is really on a stick ;)

  • @benjaminjamesrodda His head is controlled by a rod that runs through his hat. The operator is probably drawing the same thing above with another pencil attached to the top of the hat.

  • @benjaminjamesrodda its the hat dude

  • my seven year old son Conor has just discovered and now loves Mr sqiggle...and we all still do...and of course, miss Jane too....

    "Cut Tape, has anyone got a sharpener?"

  • Were all the Squiggles sent in by fake kids?? Like in Romper Room w that magic mirror & the lady would call out the names of children she could 'see' through the TV....had me fooled for years.

    Cos I came up with some bloody brilliant squiggles to send in as a kid, ones that would have Mr Squiggle stumped, and yet the show never gave out the damn address so I could send them in!

  • i love how it goes in a second from not knowing what it is then seeing it. talented mr.squiggle LOL
