Mr Blobby was a character featured in BBC’s Noel Edmond’s House Party TV program in the 1990s. Tall, fat and out of shape, pink with yellow spots and jiggling eyes, this nightmarerish humanoid could only communicate by mean of an irritating electronic voice. He was clumsy, stupid and his only talent was creating chaos wherever he went. Despite being the ugliest character ever, Mr Blobby who could be horribly funny and expressive became increasingly popular with children and adult alike in the United Kingdom. Shops were soon full of Mr Blobby items including a pink “Mr Blobby” lemonade, his theme park was built, he even published an album and had a Christmas No 1 hit single in 1993. Mr Blobby’s show consisted partly in creating some spoof of famous TV shows and he became so successful that he even made numerous guest appearances in popular shows such as Royle Clarke’s The Last Of The Summer Wines and Keeping Up Appearances. |
