I watched the
Clangers on CBeebies the other morning with my grandson.
The Clangers
was created by Oliver Postgate. The series is narrated by Michael Palin.
The Clangers
are a family of adorable knitted aliens that live on and inside a small blue
planet; they look a tiny bit like an elephant with a trunk, but they have no
ears, and they’re Pink in colour!
To communicate
with each other they whistle; they also have some very unusual friends like the
Soup Dragon and the Iron Chicken?
The stories and
animation are great. The theme tune sounds quite dainty it reminds me of a
merry go round.
This children’s
series is very entertaining and also shows problem solving.
In my opinion
it’s a lovely series that show family and friendship, you could say they’re a
close knit family!
It reminds me
of when I was a child; I never knew the Clangers were Pink as our television
was a black and white set!
My final
thought; if we communicated in whistles, what would the sound of a child’s
frustration sound like? What do you think?
Watch an
episode now and tell me what you think?
