Oh I hadn't heard - how sad. I'm from Canterbury which is where he lived so I've always felt a connection - apart from just loving his work.
And Bagpuss put in many appearances in the city
One of my favourite memories is of my class teacher when I was about thirteen running into the classroom saying 'look, I've got my hand up Bagpuss' bum' - and so did I get to meet the real Bagpuss.
Cal - you will dine out on that for years! I loved Noggin the Nog and The Clangers best. Never too old for his "settle down and I'll tell you a story" style.
This is lovely. So sad about Oliver Postgate - a really beloved figure. He was like a sort of benediction, wasn't he, with his wonderful narration. I was always devoted to Ivor the Engine.

ReplyDeleteI'll see if I can get daughter, Helen, to write a piece on this. She grew up with these lovely things.
