[HurtmeDontPlease]

I've come over all wistful! My, does'nt time fly! :(

[junebeckford]

Aah, magical, cosy childhood , thanks for the mems

[yippitydodah]

shut that door! Wonder if Hartley had a friend called Slack Alice?

[MrBucko41]

Now i know why i had nightmares. Im Michael by the way :(

[perrodog11]

ahh, he is sooooo scarey!!!

[Predatorpaul77]

it's like Salad Fingers freaky but compelling lol

[TwoDeadQueens]

Of course! That's who Nigel Slater has been reminding me of!

[Shazza921]

:-O that's just terrible, teaching young children to be naughty with a glove puppet... Filth!!! hahah

[1966sweetleaf]

Hartley!...you taught me so much xxxx

[cookiedipp]

Somebody has a hand puppet fetish... XD O_O

[LikaLaruku]

He bought a toy, you can do all sorts of things with it, play with it, be....naughty.

[chain0fflowers]

143 people like michael!

[TheMrsPipe]

Damn that takes me back - how creepy was that hare?

[D1LENGER]

it scared the be-jevers out of me when i was kid, now i'm 43 yrs old

AND IT'S EVEN MORE SCARY...

terrible program, it haunts me.

[goaty1boy]

While the US were watching Kermit on Sesame Street, we in the UK were watching Hartley Hare on Pipkins... Now that's education!

[nationwidepenguin]

Love it! Great edited clips and truly magnificent innuendo!

[rure1968]

I had totally forgotten about Hartley Hare. He rocks and I suspect he may have alot to answer for now I'm a big boy!

[tiggwivattitude1]

hartly rocks

[biebette0607]

hes really scary



[MikeHudson65]

Hartley Hare is so camp!! I love him

[auldyin72]

no wonder i have nightmares.

[Emrald70]

he DOES look a bit old and poorly put together

I know it was the 80s but wen u consider the Muppets in the 60s who were half decent.......

[gamefreak11]

Damnit hartley, why won't you stay dead?!!

[fleamarket3000]

this is like something from a David Lynch movie

[buffif]

this sounds dirty

[matrixmentalist]

Im nearly 40 and it still looks like road kill with a hand stuffed up his arris!

[LOCOMOTIONNUMBER1]

Where's Toss Off the monkey? I agree he looks like a rabbit that's been run over by a 40 tonne artic, buried then dug up again 6 weeks later.

[joannalexus1]

love the memories..Hartley looks like someone has washed their car with him, wrung him out and left him on the line for months in the sun! he was really fucked up and yes very Larry Grayson!!

[deanprabhuji]

ABSOLUTEY BRILLIANT!!! HARTLEY HARE FOR PM!!!!

[cannywf1]

You fucking flea bitten thing, you gave me nightmares for years.

[CaptainOkay]

Michael! *scene of Hartley pounding Michael across the screen.

I would pay almost three thousand pounds for the original Hartlay doll.

[theULTIMATEelmo]

This show could be taken in such the wrong way...EVERYTHING Hartley says could be taken sexually xD

[Cephalopoda]

@theULTIMATEelmo

I'm not *entirely* sure that isn't deliberate...

[wataf211110]

Looks like he's shagging it at 37 secs !!!

[BongoOldChap]

@wataf211110 lol you beat me to it!

[AustinMcsherry]

How gay is that hare? Put your hand in it? Play with it?

[Feisty1967]

Hartley Hare is very naughty! And so much like Larry Grayson, even the teeth!!

[playgirlc]

i love hartley, formed the basis of my personality he did.  along with bugs bunny and yosemite sam.

[MusicLoverGirlie]

Wrong, SO wrong lol

[moonboots69]

Hartley Hare scared the shit out of me as a kid... he looked like a roadkill that was brought back to life with steel rods and wires..

[Eedgit]

You can be naughty with a glove puppet, can't you..Mmmmm

Hartley was a randy Alexander...Hahahaha

[RazzUK]

OMG! LOOOOOOOOOOOL! :D

[TheEvilPrincess1]

0:33 best bit

[drugfuck]

Hartley Hare made me gay!

[geordiegirlnufc]

He"s a horny old hare, Go for it Hartley!!!

[POLARBEARLUFC]

@geordiegirlnufc And your my horny rabbit, Go for it girl!!!

[geordiegirlnufc]

@POLARBEARLUFC ......I ll always be your horny rabbit...MR BOMBA....lol

[GillyDangerous]

Hartley Hare was so gay. Love him though.

[fuzzbuzzuk]

looks like a randy duster

[saturnfiverocket]

Nightmare stuff

[rochstan123]

Hartley Hare should have had a wash before he done the puppet. Damn he was really going for it.

[vaper192]

is he fucking the thing lol

[vlogbros221]

ROAD KILL??????????

[paulreno1]

My favourite Harley Hare. Never looked scary to me, just a bit shabby. I wasn't scared of any of the puppets either. You just wouldn't get another Hartley Hare on childrens tv these days. Everything is that politically correct it's ruined anything that gets put on tv. They seem to forget most of the school kids are watching 18 rated movies now! I agree Hartley for Prime Minister!!

[JackDaniels267]

I never missed this when I was a kid. He was giving that puppet a knee trembler!!! Go Hartley boy.

[Truimphful]

I never realised!! It was great at the time but this is in the vane of Pugwash. Hartley telling us what you can do with a puppet. He then procedes to shag it!!!!!. Wrong really, but we were so much more innocent then.

[RHutton2710]

@Truimphful: I have to agree. That's one of the daftest things I've ever seen. If Kenneth Willliams had been reincarnated as a zombie rabbit...

[manxsc]

Fucking brilliant -Hartley for Prime Minister (would sort our country out!)

[Emrald70]

@manxsc well he couldnt do any worse than his predecesors :P

[lunchboxattacks1]

Can someone point me to some kid's TV on today that is as subversive as this?? I don't think something like this could be shown on TV today at any time never mind kiddie prime time!

[mcdevitttim]

It looks like Donnie Darko Road Kill Rabbit 

[jacobgulless]

hartleys a prick, he owes me a tenner

[NualaBugeye]

all the best kids' TV entertains not only children but their parents too - my mum must have been sniggering at this!

[jaseyh]

Freaked me out that hare..still does, but disturbingly I still seek him out on here!!

[Banshea1]

Very disturbing!! I dont remember him so camp!!

[DangerDan2010]

OMG. I used to love Pipkins. Now I think it's all rather grubby and sinister ! I wonder if I am mentally scarred ? Might need counselling now.

[twoeggcups]

This scared the bejeesus out of me as a child and is, if anything, even more disturbing now. Hartley is scarier than Chris Cunnigham's hideous man-rabbit-demon. Pipkins was an atrocity, whatever posessed them?

[4591381]

looked like he was shagging the glove puppet!

[rolfeypot]

my kid has a teddy what looks like hartley the hare

[mingoose12345678910]

puppet porn

[RydaHedge123]

0:48 hahahaha

[lisahay5126]

i used to love this sounds a bit pervy now lol hahaha

[musicmadmatti]

PIPKINS was the best thing ever made for children ! I loved it in the 1970`s and still do - great memories . Pig was my favourite with his brummie voice, outfits and constant need for food . A couple of DVD`s with ,sadly the only surviving episodes on came out a few years back .Buy it and give our PIPKINS friends the respect they deserve .

[ianupton]

a lot of people dont know that the voice for hartley was created by sandy gall from the ITN news. funny to think he did those afgahnistan reports and heavy news and did this voice on the side.

[Carpomoo]

I used to watch this as a kid when it was on in England .. and tbh it was remarkably frightening to me then as a child let alone now.

[arsemaster200]

Rather disturbing.

[antniemi]

Wow, this rabbit is getting close to Pedo-Bear, lol! Today, I will teach you about being... naughty

[AndrewJimScott]

Is it me or does that Hare look like Larry Greyson???

[mbamay26]

thts fked up XD cause my name is michael

[45545512]

definately subversive :)

[julz35]

LoL

[davedundee]

Not only was Hartley, Topov and Pig scary. It is quite clear now that Hartley and Larry Grayson are one and the same character, slightly upper class and very camp !!!! great memories.

[cronkitesatellite]

a puppet with a puppet...

[whakawhakapapa]

Hartley looks like a pet that has been dead for three weeks, buried and then dug up and brought back to life.............. a bit "pet cemetary" looking

[gordyritajames]

I have laughed and laughed over this I love Hartley Hare

MICHAEL!!!

[Perapsam]

Lmao

[mjzoka]

what a gay hare

[mcrammstein]

0.40!!!!!.........is Hartley having his wicked way with his glove puppet????

[mcrammstein]

This SOB used to give me nightmares!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[maddyac07]

I discovered this video by typing in 'Joe Pipkin' thats a kid from "the halloween tree" that i love. i think i watch this video like 20 times a day. its great and scary

[kiryukandojo]

i used to love this show... I remember PIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIG

[FetidToecheese]

Freaky rabbit used to scare me

[aquamaria10]

Very funny - but I agree creepy - I might get nightmares!!....I remember as a child I always thought the voice of Hartley Hare was Larry Grayson (camp tv presenter who's catchphrase was "what a gay day!") Also do a search for the Naughty Rainbow episode - it's hilarious!!

[StigOHarrison]

What a gay hare!

[dazzlstar]

Oh deary me...Michael.......

[halleuliah]

ha ha , hartley hare is in my cupboard .

bbc3 wants a come back !! watch this space . spandell ballet done it !! Pig is also there , has swine flu .

[katerush]

some-one likes to play rough!!!! for pitys sake hartley, leave the puppet alone for a while and let it rest, it`s tired and wants to sleep, haha.

[katerush]

haha, funny, but oh so pervy.

[dazzlstar]

ahhhhhhhh runaawayyy!!

that is creepy. When Hartley says 'Miichael' at the end he sounds like a perv.

[BIVVIEDUP]

HAHA BRILLANT

[OrganistGreg]

omg thats disgusting lolz. I used to watch this show as a kid.

[ottersruletheworld]

oh my god hartly turned into a peedo!

[skawashers]

no wonder im such a sexual deviant after being ween on a diet of Hartley hare as a child

[monkeyboy85]

this is disturbing, particularly as I'm called Michael, lol

[jadorebri]

This was one of my favourite shows when I was a kid! I obviously didn't pick up on the suggestive tone - it's verging on obscene lol!!

[100roberthenry]

nonce.....

[ottersruletheworld]

he look like he having sex when hes goin in that room lol

[pinkanglia]

Hartley the woofter

[Urko2005]

more neurotic

[ging006]

[zebsean]

[victorgeorge71]

I want to talk about "being naughty" *sweats* and rubbs hands together

[1214maz]

Flippin' heck..! Pipkins rock!

[DarkAngel182]

Damn, I don;t remember this many double-entendre's in that show.

[StampsOnSnails]

Ha My Friend Told Me To Youtube This BEcause She HAd To Watch Some Old Kids SHows In History She Told Me Its Hilarious

[Margocarr]

Fantastic Thanks so much for posting it up. Takes me back to me young days Ha ha camp as Christmas. I'm looking for Humphrey Cushion too as I can't remember the name of the kids show he was on round the same time Yayy!

[hump3cooshon]

It was Hickory House

[Margocarr]

Thanks Hump Much appreciated I've found it too x

[UKSundaeGirl72]

I had no idea Hartley was so CAMP!

Then again, many '70s comedians were, I should be surprised,

Thanks for this - any more?

[FFSSAKE]

Is it coincidence that 'Michael' the puppet looks like Michael Barrymore?

[markdelaney]

i guess Hartley is lucky he didn't end up face down in the swimming pool....

[ilovenitnat]

those were the days........

[jacklad70]

i have to say i thought this was scary,that scabby rabbit put the shits up me lol

[TrapperMilan]

That scabby rabbit is a Hare!! ;)

[buddle31]

What's Hartley doing with that glove puppet? Lol!

[tedlpool]

fuckme ive asked evry 1 if they remember this it was me fave thought i was remembering things no fucker had heard of it

[Barker346]

me too haha

[Halboy10]

Hartley Hare was so realistic I thought he was CGI and not a puppet!

Pipkins was my era also.

[reacharound90]

more people need to see this i have been spreading the word

[cook1atschool]

this programme was my childhood, i loved tortoise as well and the man who used to say half way thru it now its TIME and all the clocks used to go off, and i think they used to tell a story, loved it, im 40 so it must have been around the early mid seventies  bless...

[reacharound90]

funniest thing ive ever seen

[Zed1967]

That was fucking hilarious, Hartley was like a puppet version of Julian Clary. LMFAO

[danhjersey]

very strange.

[psychodamned]

Kenneth williams must have had he's hand up Hartley Hare's arse ??

[tonymontana1974]

0:40 im sorry but that just looks wrong

[Ohheffeffess]

0:36 "MICHEAL!"

[smellygentleman]

this is probably my fave vid EVA!

[halfeatentoe]

is it me or is the flippin rabbit openly gay nd horny wat about the end.. =\

[mrsolo54]

I used to watch this as a young un,man you just dont realise how camp them puppets were,plus it looks like it need to go doctors it looks all dusty and horrible,looks like su'um I wash my car with...lil gay horny hare

[ianhrfc]

So funny! nice one!!

[sweetypie000]

creepy... this takes me back

[dmwilson73]

actually it's just dawned on me... wasn't hartley hare the alan carr of his day?

[kabogga]

dmwilson73: That may be true, but rather insulting don't you think? As Hartley Hare has better teeth than Alan Carr. Lol! ;-)

[MarcJboy]

Ha ha Quentin Crisp, never dawned on me - but now you've said it, I'll never look at Hartley without thinking it!

[billybadbrakes]

Never realised that Hartley was Quentin Crisp in Hare form?! ..WTF is going on at 00:38?! ha ha!

[sorceroruk]

The first "openly" gay children's TV puppet ? What with Rainbow it's no surprise that our generation is seriously twisted.

S....x.

[GasheadAli]

Ooh er missus.

[GNeuman]

Gosh, never realised Hartley was soooo camp...Blatant fisting going on there, I would say..

[SarahSoulFood]

this was my fave show and ..... i think it might still be! lol FABULOUS!

[kabogga]

Runs up to villarshite, shouts 'Birmingham City!', and runs away... :-)

[dougiewhite778]

pig was funny with a brummie accent

[BlahBlahBleepBleep88]

I can't remember this show ever being rude, but I was only about 5!!! This is terrible, I'm surprised it was allowed to be broadcasted on kids tv!!!

[BleachedSurfJunkie]

00:39 to 00:43 looks so dodgy!

[zebrapanties]

Us kids of the 70's were entertained with very little...no fancy computers, just good old make believe..magic!

[CharleyWessex]

My Dad was always concerned that watching this 'moth eaten bloody thing' would warp my mind. I think his fears were well founded on reflection.

[villarshite]

no wonder most kids of the 70's grew up disturbed.

[pickleboy23]

I'm sorry folks but ever since setting eyes on this character I adopted an animal cruelty side that has been with me ever since

[valegirl36]

I used to charge home from school at dinner time - (I always had to 'go home for lunch!'

and eat crisp sarnies watching Hartley on Tv at 12.30.

Ah to be a kid again. Long live the 70's kids!!!

[siarung]

lol loved crisp butties.We used to wag school an watch this ,clopper castle and the sullivans no daytime tv like today there was nowt else on

[bignaughtydog]

have you read the words to the clopper castle song??? It is about a war over oil!! I guess that fued is as old as manking itself.

[ianclivewright]

"Hello Hartley", said in tortoises voice.

[parfum808]

Lovely Hartley Hare! Brings back such happy memories seeing him again. he was ALWAYS naughty..that's why we all loved Hartley as kids.

[JAYLEEYATES]

THATS HAREOAROTIC SO RODENT GAY

[miraoister]

yeah but a hare cant do anything with a glove puppet.

[lilysmumkate]

my favourite too he was sooo rude sometimes I loved him too, I was very young but still I can remember him but funnily enough i DONT REMEMBER HIM getting it on with Michael the glove puppet....however, if thats what does it for him lol

[Lovewilltearus69]

Hartley was my all time hero as a child' so much so, that I wanted to own him, if possible, when I grew up. I am still searching!

[cardensdriving]

Cruel really...forcing Hartley to perform while he was in the later stages of miximitosis. He was a real pro to the end, and boy that ego! Apararently he had a massive libido, and was often at it in the fields behind the studio.

[ianclivewright]

lol

[PipkinsTime]

It's Time!!!

[benjamintheblue]

That is so filthy its hilarious. I was about 5 when i used to watch this. Ahh innocent days. It was my favourite program. Didnt realise Hartley was camp lol
