Arthur

[Creative]

I think Arthur is a really sweet programme for kids. I still watch it sometimes if there's nothing else on.

Is this Arthur the Aardvark? I used to love watching that. My brother, sister and I even had a Talking CD version which we played on the computer and was interactive.

[Creative]

Yes. I think it's nice and gentle and the storylines have positive messages for children.

I had that. It was from a programme called Living Books. (My dad used to get them from work) Did you have the one with his birthday party or was it the other one?


Yes, I adore Arthur. I used to watch it all the time when I was little and I still watch it now. Entire episodes are on Youtube, with brilliant quality. Just search "ArthurTV1996". If anyone's interested, there has recently been an episode about Asperger's.

I personally think it's a poor portrayal but oh, well.

yes he is an aardvark. his most recent drawings make him look like a mouse/bear, but in his original sketches, he has an elongated nose and terrible eyesight (that's were the glasses came from), the main characteristics of an aardvark.

In my opinion I thought it was a good portrayal of some of the main factors of aspergers for kids of the age around 7.

There will be a guest appearance by author Neil Gaiman and there will be an episode concerning the new character Lydia Fox, which was created by All Kids Can Character Search competition winner Connor.
