MORE SKIP AND FUFFY

I saw the post on Gordon Murray's Skip and Fuffy, which looks to be another stop-motion animated series, which was included on The Multi-Coloured Swap Shop on the BBC in the 1970s. Here is the original post.


I did some digging, but came up with very little. Skip and Fuffy appeared on the Multi-Coloured Swap Shop in 1978.

There were a couple of 30-piece jigsaw puzzles by Falcon Games Limited, numbered No1 and No2. These have '© Gordon Murray Promotions 1977 - Licenced by BBC Enterprises' on the side of the box, along with Ages 3-7, and Made in England.

According to the Wikipedia article for MCSS, there were four Annuals for the show. The first of these, The Multi-Coloured Swap Shop Book (the one with the green cover) has at least one page on the show, with colour photos of the characters.

I could not find anything on Worthpoint on the show, so these four photos are all from Ebay.

  1. Fascinating Paul. Noel Edmunds was once the king of British TV, on everything.
