Bod
The main character of this bizarre British kids TV show was a
little bald lad called Bod (who wore a yellow dress!).
John Le Mesurier narrated, introducing the arrival of all the
characters in turn . . . . Aunt Flo, PC Copper, Frank the Postman
and Farmer Barleymow were the main inhabitants of Bod's
world.
The show also featured an animal orchestra led by a frog
conductor called Alberto. Alberto would celebrate every recital
with a milkshake. The series was animated by Denise Shackell and
Alan Rogers for "Bodfilms Ltd".
Bod was actually a very abstract show for children (and more than
a little creepy in a strange way). Most kiddies probably walked
away at the end of an episode thinking “what the hell was that
all about?”.
"Bod" – It’s not even a name - it's an acronym to
describe a Top Secret hideous experiment gone wrong!. If any
readers ever successfully worked out the plotlines or story behind
Bod, please let us know !
