Petition: Please Sign!

I think I will organise a petition to bring back Mr Squiggle.

Who else has awesome blue hair, massive eyelashes and a pencil for a nose? (Right up until the pencil you were
thinking Dame Edna right?).

ABC needs to take a good hard look at themselves. I'd rather watch Mr Squiggle than election coverage. Thanks anyway.

Bring back Mr Squiggle. I love a bit of upside down drawing. (And a grumpy Blackboard.)

I'm with you! Guessing what he was drawing before it was completely obvious was one of my favourite things to do.
I still do the blackboard's voice when I am telling people to hurry up.

Smartest thing anyone has said since the starting gun was fired. Consider me signed on the dotted line.

Oh yes please bring back Mr Squiggle. And while they are at it how about: Adventure Island, The Lost Islands, Catch Kandy (although no-one seems to remember this except me)

I got to meet him! It was mid 2008, and I worked on this big international puppetry festival in Perth, WA. Mr Hetherington came over, and is now in his late 80s. He was Mr Squiggle for 42 continuous years. He had fluffy hair just the same (white not blue though) and his VOICE! It was just as we all remember Mr Squiggle's. I was all set to ask him to do me a squiggle (I had it ready) and then I got too shy. Major star-struck moment.

'Oh, Hurry up!' Where do I sign? Upside down, Miss Jane? I love the Squiggle. Even if Bill steam shovel had smoking issues. Now off for a space walk xx

Add me to the petition. I have to admit I LOVED Blackboard, was on tenterhooks until he came out with "Hurry up, Hurry up" in his lovely grumpy voice :-)
