MadameChaos Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 (edited) As much as I hate posting content from The Daily Mail, they have a very comprehensive article. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2460233/BBC-whistles-return-The-Clangers-Cult-childrens-return-screens-5m-remake.html so fucking IDM Edited October 15, 2013 by MadameChaos Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide all signatures Reveal hidden contents Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/80878-the-clangers-are-coming-back/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbpete Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 This short animation by Michel Gondry always reminds me of the weird claustrophobia-melancholy-comforting emotional combination I get from The Clangers. Being set on the moon probably helps with the connection too !

Guest Atom Dowry Firth Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 "The new series will use original creator Oliver Postgate’s technique of stop-frame animation and be overseen by the BBC along with original producers Smallfilms." This is how it should be done! Was filled with horror when I read the words '£5million remake' but this is encouraging Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/80878-the-clangers-are-coming-back/#findComment-2075635 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soloman Tump Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 £5,000,000 budget. Its amazing when you think the original was a bunch of finger puppets, papier mache backdrops and tin whistle sound effects.

beerwolf Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 (edited) Clangers are ace, as is Ivor the Engine. I had Ivor the Engine wallpaper when I was a kid. When we moved into a bigger house up the road I sat and cried on my bed all morning as I couldn't bear leving behind my precious wallpaper. True lol.
