From the Nation That Brought Us the Clangers and Bagpuss

One of these days I should actually sit down and read Flanimals, rather than just use it as an excuse to talk about its creator. I mentioned him not too long ago, and already he's in the news again. It looks as if Ricky Gervais has made it into the unholy realm of stop-animation British television. The English and their stop-animation. I was raised on it and I ended up fine, so hopefully the same will be said of children viewing this latest venture. Thanks to bookshelves of doom for the link.
