But... they are a poor imitation of the originals.
And THEIR HAIR ISN'T RIGHT!!!
We still don't have any water 14 hours on... us and about 10 thousand other homes in the area. There is no number to call to speak to a human, the website has been perfunctorily 'updated' 8 times all day. No water has been provided locally (the nearest pick-up point for bottles is over 10 miles away and has already run dry until 10pm). Appalling.
That is a shame about The Clangers. I just watched an original episode on YouTube and found it charming and oh so British. Hope the water situation is resolved soon. Sounds like that company never learned the following rule:
"Good service is good business."

I still think the new clangers are great, especially after the new Thunderbirds mess.

Watched the first programme. Husband thinks it's all a bit 'sweet' and 'too much narration'. But he got to see the Original Series. I didn't. Will have to watch a few more programmes.
Hope the water's back on soon. Can you dowse?
