The Adventures of Abney & Teal

[Gingerbread]

This programme just doesn't get enough love! I adore it, so does my one year old son

It's about two rag doll, Abney and Teal, who live on an island in the middle of a pond, in an undisclosed park in a city. Also starring are Neep, a creature reminiscent of a turnip, the Poc Pocs, seven little wooden/seed creatures named for the noise they make, and Bop, a furry seal-like animal who spends his time drinking pond water from a teacup and making bubbles.

It's very 'Bagpuss' in feel, has that sort of retro-ish quality to it. One of my fave episodes is when Abney  has a space on his shelf so Teal and Neep fish an old radio out of the pond for him to fill the space. The Poc Pocs trancing out to the static is awesome

There is a severe lack of toys though I managed to pick Neep up from Tescos when he was £3. There are lots of books and Abney, Teal and Bop plushies, but I would sell my left leg for a family of Poc Pocs.

Has anyone else seen this? Or found any toys apart from the stuffed and bean plushies?

It looks cute. I'm not sure it airs here though.

I love it too! Getting rid of any of the plushies?

Kaoskat you should try to find some of the episodes on Youtube. There are loads of people videoing their TV though, not actual uploads...

I only have the taking Neep! I was going to grab a couple more for my son as he adores him (and you can't change the batteries on the voice thingy) but they have gone back up in price again.

Aw, please keep an eye out for me, if you don't mind. Bop is our favorite!
