I'll be enhancing and colourising the other 5 episodes in the series in the coming days, so please come back for more!
"Comprising six episodes of nine minutes each, The Pogles set the scene for the sequel series entitled Pogles' Wood. Besides its focus on the titular family, the original series is especially distinguished from the later series by its appearances of the Witch, a mysterious and evil shape-changing character, and the tone of the episodes was regarded as sinister. After initially broadcasting it, the BBC considered it "too frightening" for its proposed inclusion in Watch with Mother, intended to be viewed by a very young audience, and advised Oliver Postgate to make all future episodes revolve around more everyday countryside matters. To reinforce these changes, the title of the show was changed. (Wikipedia)

Absolutely loved this series.. I was born in 1963. Happy memories..
How was this frightening. I loved the Pogles. 😍😍😍😍😍😍
I loved poggles Wood it was wonderful....I was young at the time,it didn't upset me....
Oh the memories ❤ remember this with my lovely Mum, sadly now passed away.
Fantastic in colour, wholesome TV. Brings back a lot of Happy memories. 👍🙂
Another wonderful gift Iain, many thanks! Would you believe - house hunting here in East Kent 4 years ago, my partner and I actually viewed Oliver Postgate's house in Blean and considered it. Sadly in a bit of a state by then. The new owners look to have got it all restored now. And Emily Firmin (who appeared in Bagpuss) is still hereabouts, I occasionally play music with her partner!
Well that's another amazing connection! What are the chances?? That's fascinating about the house too. One of the things I'm enjoying about this newly discovered (for me) series is the 1960s rural setting. The Shape-shifting evil witch is rendering in full HD as we speak...
Just came across this Iain, thank you so much! A treasured favourite from my childhood, a very different world back then. Thank you, so much appreciated.
Thank you! glad you like it.
I enjoyed watching it when I was very young and was NEVER frightened.
Ooh the Poles, one of my favourites! I particularly loved Tog ❤️🌟
Polish alcoholics in Shepherds Bush.
Hi Iain I didn't realise you worked your magic on The Pogels as well ✨️. You've made me a happy chap re kindling my young memories 😊 well done. Peter
Thanks Peter, I think I'm reading these comments in the wrong order ;-). Yes, a very recent discovery for me here on RUclips. That's one advantage of the modern world, the internet.
Still wonderful
Very enjoyable, Iain, Especially rolling the little wheelbarrow about got me laughing.
Thanks David. It gets much darker and more sinister by Ep.3 so you may not be laughing then ;-)
Happy days
Memories...Pippin and Tog not in this one☹. I would just say Pogle get your own breakfast😂 And the Plant sprouted a violin 🎻too. Thank you for this, brilliant x
I loved pogles wood as an infant...the pupe cleaner men always fascinated me.... 😮
I loved it yet most people I know don't remember it. Another series that creased me in the 7ts was Mr Fairly Big. Again no one I know recalls it. Probably all deleted now but myself and one other person I k ow recalls it because we used to reenact it for laughs as kids. 🤣
Thanks for this, please keep them coming
Thanks mate. I'm planning on getting the original DVDs and doing it properly at some time!
I do remember this not bad for 59 years old just like m self 😂
2:25 bean cake and beech nut milk? Probably being served in a vegan cafe somewhere today.
Too scary. my foot! Whoever wrote that never saw Raggety from Rupert around that time.....Scared the brown stuff out of me!
The Pogles kind of passed me by. Looks like I get a change from the Pogues! (musician here... 😃😉)
So much better in stop/go animation. These days it would be CGI, which has ( imho ) spoilt the likes of Postman Pat & Fireman Sam.
Blimey! No longer am I a Pogle virgin, and I got my music into the bargain! I'll have to immortalise that tune into something playable on my tubes. It should have a Penguin Café Orchestra kind of a title...
Great, I look forward to hearing that ;-) ."Pogle virgin": that's funny! Two words which have probably never been put together before. By the way, Ep 3 is when it gets nasty. The shape-shifting evil witch was too much for the BBC.
@@IKP1000 Can't wait for the witch! Too scary for kids? Try telling that to JK Rowling! I was reading scary stories at a very early age. Try HG Wells' "The Red Room" for size.
Do you remember the the people who lived in the tree .Pipecleaer people
Ah when men were men, and women were gkad of it!
The BBC were idiots. Everything Oliver Postgate made was golden and I’ve seen all of it - except this. Their squeamishness must have kept it from me.
Not very P.C. for the BBC.
When TV was able to brodcast normality and not PC/woke nonsense.
