my inspiration...



my inspiration for my titles, and the friendship between man and puppet comes from the show Bodger and Badger (picture, right), where Badger would misbehave and Mr Bodger would have to take care of him and tell him to be sensible.

I remember watching this programme as a child, and i remember finding the setout very funny, and one of the main features is mashed potato (it also features in the theme song, which i still remember) and each story would revolve around mash, and how it could be used to mess up things, or prank people.

Another show i remember from when i was young has to be the 'Sooty and Sweep show', with main character matthew corbett, who lived with three puppets; Sooty, Sweep and Sue. Sue was the only puppet who spoke, the other two just repsonded to what had already been said by nodding, or hand or head gestures.

The ideas behind both of these shows is one that i would like to copy, one with a main character and puppets who respond and rely on him.
