  GREETINGS! And WELCOME to TV MUFF. We call it that to give the impression we've experienced female genitalia. We haven't though. TV MUFF STUFF: News reaches us of an obscure kids' show from 1976 called MR MOLESWORTH STICKS IT UP. Starring the legendary Fred 'TERK' Harris and an ultra-young Nigel 'CATFLAP' Planer, this was set on some kind of weather satellite orbiting the earth and featured a load of camp robots called the Mugwumps who all spoke a bit like Evel 'BIKE' Kenieval. Dunno what it was about, but the dead scary theme music was by Rick 'LIFE ON MARS?' Wakeman. TV MUFF IMMORTALITY: WANK WANK WANKERTY WANK, WE'RE SO WANKY... LONG SHOTS: Any further information on the 1983 Sheelagh 'DO IT' Gilbey vehicle WANG! would be appreciated. We remember a puppet of a mackerel and a weird interchangeable lantern type affair in the opening titles, but little else. Highly Influenced by Oscar, Kina And The Laser...but then what wasn't? Theme music sounded like Frank Zappa, who we've heard of. TV MUFF IMMORTALITY: LET ME OUT, LET ME OUT, I'M FEELING ILL...
UPDATE: Thanks to Simon Dreary of Norwich for finally isolating the rare 'dual-pattern' 6:9 line version of the 1980 Tyne Tees logo. Log onto his dad's website @ joyless.com to see it in its glory. TV MUFF IMMORTALITY: YUMMY YUMMY YUMMY I'VE GOT LOVE IN MY TUMMY... Contributions are flooding in for our PESKY MEDDLING KIDS' TV POLL, where you can vote for your favourite memory of children's television. Ideally, try and make them things that either (a) didn't happen, or (b) you couldn't possibly have seen at the time because they were out-takes shown on compilation shows first transmitted when you were already pushing thirty. 1. Matt Bianco being called WankersNote: Some weirdo e-mailed us yesterday to vote for Think Of A Number, on the basis that - as a child - he enjoyed it every week. However, since the legendary Mr Ball never swore or got his cock out, this is not in the running. TV MUFF LINK OF THE DAY: Check out HEYDOYOUREMEMBERTHECLANGERS.COM for the ultimate guide to remembering The Clangers. TV MUFF SEZ: Do you enjoy taking something you obviously adored as a child and then sneering at it to make yourself feel better about the complete lack of grass-roots good stuff you've personally contributed to the world? Just checking. QUESTIONS: Mr Corpses from Hell asks us if we have any information on some unseen Monty Python studio sessions, the existence of which was recently confirmed by the BBC. We say GET A LIFE! And by that, we don't mean the legendary schools programme about health and safety which ran for 267 editions between, I dunno, 1979 and 1991 or something. We're too drunk to remember! But download the theme music using Twataudio now, dudes! And then click on MISSINGTHEPOINTOFEVERYTHING.COM for our hilarious parody of local newspapers. |
