Ah I quite like Daddy Pig.. although it's weird hearing "his" voice in some insurance/travel ad lately
It does have a lot of humour/asides for the adults which is actually quite funny... Ben and Holly is even better in that regard.
These days its things like Transformers Rescue Bots (nowhere near as good as Transformers Prime but he's a bit young for that), PJ Masks (bloody catchy theme tune), Octonauts (watchable) and Justin Time (not so much)
In a few years I'll introduce him to some classic 80s/90s cartoons but I can't wait for the day I can introduce him to proper films like Die Hard, Predator, The Running Man and so on
Plus there's all the cool toys to think of in the meantime

Nanny Plum is brilliant in Ben & Holly. I loved the Mutiny on the Bunty episode as well.
The Peppa episode when she's trying to learn to whistle is hilarious as well. It's harmless and by and large the kids learn a lot from them.
Fireman Sam drives me mad. Between Elvis the gob****e and the poxy kid with the accent that would go through your head. Also the new Bob the Builder is crap. The young lad who helps him should be locked up for criminal negligence.0 -

The one where they make a Nanny Plum doll which the elves then mass produce is excellent Wise Old Elf is a great character too.Fireman Sam drives me mad.

Agree on Sam.. shyte - although the earlier pre-computer animation ones were very different from what I've seen.
Bob the Builder was a passing phase.. cost me a fortune in toys though! 0 -

I'm a big fan of the wise old elf - he's so flippin straight and narrow and then you find out his two sons are a pirate and a viking!! Brilliant!
The episode where the Wise Old Elf and Nanny Plum swap jobs for the day is another classic.
There's no doubt people reading this thread going WTF are you lot watching? but some of it is just brilliant writing. 0 -

Wise Old Elf doing magic at magic school and losing the run of himself is a good un too, magic alway leads to trouble.0 -

You know you have a problem when on a Sunday evening your partner wants to watch Game of Thrones and you're telling then to f?!k off because you're watching Ben and Holly.
There another brilliant episode that revolves around Nanny Plum always knowing when it's nearly lunchtime because her tummy begins to rumble. This upsets the sensibilities of the Wise Old Elf who relies on the empirical correctness of the Great Elf Clock to keep elves on time. He keeps it synchronized with the distant bells each evening, but they turn out to bethe dinner bell being rung by Nanny Plum based on her rumbling tummy.
I can't tell of the spoiler alert was necessary... Ben & Holly forum request anybody?0
