andy pandy

[TheKilnman]

was that sandra kerr, the brilliant voice of madalene the rag dol ,even though shes a folk singer.?

[BillyJimOMFG]

It's tragic. The same thing happened to "Mamby Pamby" and that old "foolscap", then we discovered it was actually an MP in the corner.

Special Branch British contingency agents DEAD.

[TheHoneyLouis]

Andy Pandy was a CUNT!!!

[MrSteeleification]

@TheHoneyLouis I agree 100% with that!!!

[thesilversupporter]

wow... just wow =D

[drigin1234]

How wonderful to see such things after all these years such nostalgia.

Thankyou

[fiddleandcatz]

<3 my mum had a watch with mother VHS and I used to love watching this as a kid, I am going to be 20 later this year and I hope when I am old enough and have children of my own they too can watch gems like these and enjoy them

[444retep1]

This opening picture always used to freak me out when I was a toddler.

It looks like Andy is strangling Teddy with a thick,black rope.

[llaslah]

They used to play this all the time on Nick Jr when I was little and I adored it. I hate the new CGI version; it's rubbish! Ahh, I love getting all nostalgic for the stuff from my childhood, I might only be sixteen but time really does go too quickly...

[Multapunkata]

Rosebud....

[spade6sic6]

OK - I admit, I'm 18 but feel like I'm dead watching this! Horrifying creepy days...........

[Harizl]

@spade6sic6

the last part makes me want to get a weapon.

[pammenjk36]

this isn't creepy. This is dull.

[andyc163]

I used to watch this stuff..I loved it..I'm 61 years old now but remember it like it was yesterday.

[TheRanhyn]

You know what thinking about it, I thought (even then at 5) i thought Andy had sexuality issues!! (21st century speak)

[THATNIC8]

I always thought that Andy Pandy was a bit of a pufter, preferred Teddy!

[vanjane]

Watch with mother.

[carelin4]

I love this takes me back as dad called me Loobyloo

[crystalellie9]

Haha.

Me gran and Grandad remember this well...

[macronencer]

You made me cry a little.

[stinkyglasses]

I watched this as a kid in the 90's!

[Buondelmonte123]

Do any of you remember The Railway Children with Jean Anderson as the mother, with that beautiful Grieg music for the introduction and closing? Our lives were so different then.

[CrankCase08]

The poof of the puppets!

[curiosityoflife]

what a voice!!!

[PaulaAbdulJr]

Once I saw the doll, I closed the screen...lol

[dsteamer100]

Amazing flashback! It is 1963 and I am 3 years old, sitting two feet away from our fuzzy black and white television totally transfixed by what I am watching.

And I can comprehend, just a little what my children see in Teletubbies and In the Night Garden

[bloobear1]

@dsteamer100 You're just 3 years older than me as I was born in 63 :-). I can also remember Andy Pandy on our old B/W tv. These were innocent days but it makes me sick how some people try to attach 'unhealthy' connotations to kids tv programmes such as these

[staticabuse86]

I remember this from when i was 5! :D

[kxmode]

Okay this is the creepiest thing I've seen! o_o

[johnmik67]

Jesus, that brought a shiver down my spine! I haven't heard that song in more than 40 years!

[conanhayle]

@johnmik67 and the rest, more like 55 years

[werewolf9613]

this brings back memories... I watched once with my bro during a storm... (he says he wonders how they did the brick thing btw) lol

[sapphire625]

sapphire625 this was my favourite watch with mother

[sapphire625]

this was my favourite watch with mother

[InfluxxMusic]

@twoslices Ironic, considering you are all scared of youth knife crime etc.

[InfluxxMusic]

It may be due to the fact that im of a different era, but this looks fucking creepy imo.

[xSonicGurlx]

i am WAY too young to remember this! [meaning that i never seen it lol]

i like the new one

this one SCARES me for some reason O_o lol

[shabrika21]

its creepy ;S

[twinPaula12]

I had never heard of Andy Pandy until a friend who is a Scotsman - and lives in Edinborough (spelling?) - told us about watching the program on television when he was a boy. He mentioned Andy Pandy with strings so, dense me, didn't realize he meant they are puppets. LOL. They are cute here. - Paula

[dominickearney]

@twinPaula12 Edinburgh

[Tokiohotelgirl97]

Fucking gives me the creeps, i used to have it on "video cassette" :L

i had to cover it with something coz the front cover scared me when i was little!!

[Cloud6556]

Terrifying...just terrifying :D 5 stars

[DrTeeBee]

No waving hello that I can see...

[KimmyKay101]

oh wow never knew Andy Pandy went this far back... :O

[KaraRoseDavidson]

AMAGAAD!! I remember andy pandy! Watching it on the old panasonic tv.

[penfloyd]

Used to cry when an episode had finished......and for some reason thought Andy was a girl......good childhood memories back in BRUM!

[Gh198x]

That "Watch With Mother" bit was scary.

[twoslices]

@Gh198x

Well of course you'd think it scary because you are of a different generation.I guess you'd be scared to go 100 yards from home without your mother holding your hand

[Muirton66]

Brings back so many good memories , things were so much easy back then , kids appreciated the simpler things in life , too many kids today (including mine) are too spoilt for their own good and appreciate nothing , they seem to skip childhood and grow up too quickly getting everything on a silver platter................

[bondsee]

@Muirton66 well said !!!

[shrivel1]

Yes, let's go and find him. I want to play with him.......

[playgirlc]

hahaha i just remembered being so impressed seeing those daisies turn into letters - wow! magic!

[3bratmom]

OMG my kid just said that Andy Pandy is Chuckie's (Child's Play) grandfather.

[ardalsgirl]

Aww how sweet. :)

[Strongit]

I think I just peed a little.

[Tokiohotelgirl97]

dear GOD please do NOT find him... he scares me so much he looks EVIL! this is why im so scared of dolls and puppets

[slacker37]

God almighty that was creepy. No wonder so many people who were kids back then turned out so fucked up.

[harrynicholas]

You're right there mate, and, I'll be around a bit later, muhahaha.

[wheelieworld100]

#SHUDDER#

[BonnieGinny11]

LETS NOT FIND HIM!

[wizzwamf]

i remeber this in colour its very odd to see it in black and white

[copewood333]

Brilliant!

[Twilightloverization]

*shudder*

[weeshorty99]

aw, come on.. it's not that bad she sings for like 5 seconds! haha. too young to remember this on tv but my dad kept these watch with mother vids i watched all the time =] woop

[trelcious]

scary

[katymagnets]

I thought it would be fun watching this - but that woman's voice!!

[englishman10000]

grow a brain!

[sweet518]

you cannot grow a brain, a foetus is born with one and that only develops, without creating a foetus i cannot grow a brain so fyl

[flipper82a]

Gordon Browns theme tune

[owenfe]

i remember trying to guess what the letters would be as the boxes turned....obviously very young as not realised they always spelt andy pandy!! well, I was 3 in 1963

[pickleboy23]

andy pandy is out in the garden again today, lets go and find him shall we........

NO, LETS NOT...

Lets leave him as far back in our minds as we can possibly get

[bluesugarmonkeys]

I used to watch this as a kid & thought it was wonderful. Now it scares the shit out of me.

[Ann1shoes]

OK - I admit, I'm 58 but feel like I'm 5 again watching this! Happy innocent days...........

[shanksno1]

He he, know the feeling : )

[Buondelmonte123]

@Ann1shoes I'm 62, and I agree with you.

[cokerainbows]

@Ann1shoes i was watching this when i was 5 or so...but was born in 1990s :D i loved it, especially spot in the woodentops

[galifrean]

@Ann1shoes

Admittedly it transported me back to the early 60's sitting in front of the steam telly - I can even smell the valves warming up I swear it....but hang on! Innocent days? well we probably were but what about Andy, Teddy and Looby Lou going off to bed together in that basket - a wild wickery threesome.

[takethatismylife]

before my nan + grandad were born there in there 50s now :)

[lawlers69]

The original show had only 26 episodes

They rerun them until 1970

Did any of us click, that we were watching reruns

On the other hand, did we just love the show?

[sabahjones]

I am in my 50's and was pre-school when I first this, it was about toys that moved on their own, that got my attention...I just loved it

My kids watched a muppet film over and over again.. Andy Pandy creaters, must have known how children like to keep seeing the same thing over and over, so 26 episodes would have probably been more than enough...*L*

[Markgcr]

I never liked this as a child, it confused me. Andy Pandy was dressed like a girl and acted like one but had a boys name. Confusing..it still is. What sort of role model was this supposed to be to young children.

[gspete1340]

It wasn't supposed to be ANY sort of role model - it was supposed to be a puppet show for kids, which is what is was!!! What's your views on Punch & Judy, then? I bet you think Punch should've undergone anger management courses and Judy should've taken self-defense classes...."role model" - do the world a favour and GET A LIFE!!

[Markgcr]

I expect Boy George is your idea of a super hero

[DarthRevan1051]

@gspete1340 its a sham ethey got rid of punch and judy because they said it promotes domestic violence WHAT A LOAD OF BULL

[Spedding101]

@DarthRevan1051 not where I live :D

[DarthRevan1051]

@Spedding101 GRRRR you lucky bastard

[iIamITheIMaster]

@DarthRevan1051 LOOOL!!

[mitzi7416]

@gspete1340 punch and judy shows trivialize a serious issue, domestic violence. andy pandy on the other hand portrays the innocence and purity of childhood. they may be puppets but a deeper meaning is apparent to intelligent people such as myself.

[crockyoshighty]

@mitzi7416 Er . . .what you on about, it's just a bleeding kiddie’s program not The Times Crossword puzzle. Deeper meaning my arse! Next thing you'll be telling us that the Wombles represent the convoluted dilection of an esoteric parabola created to remonstrate our magnanimous British approbations. I tell you sir or madam, your sardonic psychobabble is endemic to what Godless heathens like yourself use to destabilise our country. Je vous souhaite bonne journée Monsieur, bonne journée! :o)o:

[dribblerthefilmstar]

@crockyoshighty Oh, put your thesaurus away. Tiresome. 

[Retromaniacs]

Hey MarkGcr - I thought exactly the same when I was a kid! I hated this programme.

[sweet518]

stop watching this you sad old woman

[xxeleloverxx]

omg! im 13 and my mum had saved the video of andy pandy so when i was like 4 or 5 i wached this :) sweat,sweat memories :) x

[1l2e3h4c5a6r7]

same!!! we had the whole watch with mother program!! well amazin!

[doctorgsja]

Did you always sweat when you watched it?

[xxeleloverxx]

no i meant sweet not sweat x

[doctorgsja]

Yes I know-LOL! Only joking ya! Would be hilarious though-Andy Pandy induced sweating!!

[xxeleloverxx]

LOL yeah that would be funny! x

[pl0xyserver]

Sweat? ?!?! its Sweet :)

[xxeleloverxx]

i no thats what i meant ):

[donnymad22]

I too had the video its so serille watchin it now!!!

[rphr1987]

and to think I watched that on a watch with mother video. I think today, it is embarrassing, but it was good to watch when I was little.

[emeraldxm]

No let's NOT go & find him, let's get the hell out of here as quickly as possible.

[xloredanax]

ahhh is scary!

[grassingtongreen]

This is serial killer material

[iLoveZac87]

DISTUBRING! :S

[twoslices]

Disturbing what?

[jonco59]

Remembered fondly from my childhood! And as for the accent - I love it!

[garysvids]

How did they talk that way and why is it that no one sounds like that now.

[felixzs]

the queen still sounds like that!!! lol

[garysvids]

You are right, maybe i should ask the queen. LOL. Thanks, you gave me a laugh.

[twoslices]

Because around 1957/58 Britain was awash with American TV shows which brought about a change in the accent and the way the Brits used slang.Not only that there was also mass immigration from Carribean countries that shaped the dialect

[albi737]

im andy pandy!! not reli im darc:P

[minestra77]

Well im Percy Panda !!!!! look out for Miser Meanie ? he he
