Fans of Florence?

Anyone else love Florence from the ORIGINAL and BEST Magic Roundabout? I love her big round head thats bald all the way around and the tuft of hair on the top. Shes sweet to look at as she walks with her BIG hands behind her back and her BIG feet. I even won a plush one off ebay a little while earlier!

Shes my favourite character in it. Recently I saw the original film 'Dougal and The Blue Cat' on youtube.com and have also bought it on dvd from Amazon...Its far better than the naff computer animated re-jigged character modern version....grrr! Hated that update!

Heres two scenes from the film, ones sad, the other happy....Florences Prison Song and Florences Housework Song....Enjoy.

Of course in the REAL original of Serge Danot's brilliant creation, she was called Margote not Florence (and the dog was Pollux).

There was a really good programme in BBC4 about The Magic Roundabout a few years ago, I've still got it on tape somewhere.

The film arrived today! It has the original French version of the film on it too and all the voices are done by individuals not just one Frenchman...Margotte sounds lovely. I will watch it later after watching the UK version!
