Pob's Programme is a children's television programme which was broadcast in the United Kingdom on Channel 4 between October 1985 and November 1987. The programme is presented by a puppet named Pob, who speaks a primitive version of English and who supposedly lives inside the viewer's TV. The opening titles of the show consist of the character breathing on the camera lens, and tracing his name in the condensation. Each week on the programme, a celebrity guest visits Pob's garden, and entertains him — though Pob and the guest never appear on screen together.
Pob's Programme was created by Doug Wilcox and Anne Wood of Ragdoll Productions, which also created Rosie and Jim. Wood went on to create the Teletubbies.
The show is the story of the old sailor Pepe the Fisherman and his best friend, the bird Kakadudu. Fisherman Pepe and Kakadudu are on a constant hunt for Foksner the fox, a pirate who hides a treasure. While searching for Foksner and his treasure, Pepe and Kakadudu discover new things and learn a lot of useful things. In addition, on the way to Foksner, Pepe teaches children to draw, paint and make crafts.
