Isn't there a longer version of this? I remember an extended version which had more time on Planet Spot, with Blotch telling Spotty off for not watching the road. Superted then tells Spotty to look for a Zebra Crossing, to which Spotty rejects as "zebra crossings have stripes".
Wow, I actually remember seeing this in infant school circa 1987! Thanks for posting! It makes perfect sense that Spotty's female companion is called Blotch - you can have blotches on your skin too!
i still remeber seeing this in my primary school in the early 90s I often hear "Not behind the bus Spotty" if i'm near parked vehicles. it really sank in
i hear superted shouting 'not behind the bus, spotty'
every time. jesus. and the YOU MIGHT FALL OVER, part. god damn i think this ad scarred me more than all the other slow motion backwards car crash ads combined
I had a book version of this when I was growing up. Don't know where it went. The end bit of "I can't be there to save you" always put me on edge as a child. Still does. There is a sense of real danger there if you are open to sensing it.
i so remember watching this and loved the fact that it were done in my home city of cardiff . . though i must say that road is never that quit to cross and look at the old arm's park ( when they crossed over the road ) memory come flooding back.
Aye, it is Cardiff. At 01.07 the large building on the opposite side of the road is the Forte Posthouse hotel (now Holiday Inn)and in the far background at the end you can see the pre-Millenium Stadium Cardiff Arms Park!
Aww, I remember watching this in Welsh as a kid. I miss the days of decent kid's cartoons - it's all in 3D nowerdays and there's so much animation going on it must give kids motion sickness...
I've wanted to see this for a long time, not seen it since I was a kid. One hugely obvious thing in it that I hadn't noticed before - When they land on Earth - they are in Cardiff Center..next to the castle. I know Superted is Welsh, so I'm pleased to see they recreated Cardiff as it was.
Earth has the worst traffic in the Galaxy? You want to have a look in your own back yard bear. They were driving like mad cunts!

I actually remember watch this as a kid aged 3 or 4 I was in a neighbour's watching superted & this came on straight after it on ITV
super ted - "remember I can't be there to save you, especially on the planet earth"
if kids watch stuff like this maybe they would have learn the green cross code better

Indeed, I remember this advert from when I was a kid.
It would certainly still be good to use these days, along with the Fireman Episode about Safety.

Wasn't the voice of Blotch that of Una Stubbs?

It was Sheila Staefel in the series, but it does sound like Una Stubbs here, maybe they got her in for the PIF.

Right by Arms Park, too. Just about everything SuperTed did happened in Cardiff. They have Torchwood to protect them now though.
