Among the shows I watched growing up, Postman Pat, along with Thomas the Tank Engine, Sooty and Co, Fireman Sam and Inspector Gadget, is a show I truly hold dear, and always will, no matter how old I am.

Postman Pat showcases the simple plot of a friendly and good-natured postman going round the beautiful village of Greendale, delivering letters and parcels to and fro, as well as helping out his friends during certain events that occur, like, for example, stopping an out-of-control robot postman from causing havoc (from the episode Postman Pat and the Robot, one of my favourites), or trying to stop a wild animal causing havoc (from the episode Postman Pat and the Beast of Greendale).

The early series of Postman Pat, 1 and 2, are considered by many to be the most desirable, and I agree.

This review has been made in honour of Ken Barrie, the original voice of the world's most beloved postman, who sadly passed away last year (2016). R. I. P Ken. You did a great job, being the voice of our favourite postman, as well as other characters. You made my childhood and others too, and will never be forgotten.

I really am not so sure about this show. When I was a little girl, I begged my mum to put on the tapes for me, so I could watch Postman Pat and his black-and-white cat go on all their amazing adventures.

Now I'm not so sure.

I gave this show a 6 out of 10 because, even though the new series is far from perfect, it has its moments. Like baby Niquille (please pardon my spelling). And something about Mira and the Doncaster soccer team. I wasn't too keen on the Greendale Rocket and Clown episodes, they were okay, but I much prefer the old series. Don't get me wrong, both are carefully crafted in a manner that only the British can achieve, but the old series had that archaic mid-20th-century England sort of feel, which was peculiar in a time like the 1980s. The new series is, in one word, alright. But Postman Pat is still an old favorite of mine, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Postman Pat was one of my favorite tv show since I was a little human. I even feel chills in my spine and a great feel of nostlagia hearing the song again after many many years of not watching it.

Watching this show will make you want to go or atleast think what if our world is like in the town where Postman Pat lives. Clean, peaceful, friendly neighborhood, no life problems, and etc.

I find it very fun and relaxing to watch Postman Pat as I feel like I'm also one of them. I find it interesting because it is animated with figures and miniature place that makes it realistic, until after years and years of not thinking about this show, I saw the new one called "Postman Pat Special Delivery" I think?

It was nice but not great for me. I felt a little sad that as what I see from others, they also changed and "improved". The new one felt like no different than watching a fully computer graphic animated show. I didn't feel like I was in their world, it felt weird. I can't get that feeling that I was watching some toys living in a mini world and that old peaceful and happy environment that was in the first one.

Still, Postman Pat is one of the great childhood shows I watched. It became a part of my childhood and it played a part on my happiness back then.

Postman Pat and his black and white cat, Jess - legends in their own right. I was entertained endlessly by pat and his adventures when I was a young lad. The stories are simple and very easy to understand and teach us all valuable lessons on the road to life about being helpful and kind to your neighbours. With a theme song that rocks and other songs and music that were great to hum along to, Pat was truly a hero for our times. He's changed recently; in my opinion the changes are not that great. They've tried to make Pat even more PC, his lips move (sacrilege!) and there's no more moments of Pat just driving like there were in the 80s...just driving through the countryside. If anything the Postman Pat of today comments on the fast-pace of our children's society. But despite all that, no once can argue that Pat was, is and shall always be the greatest British hero.

8/10

Along with Fireman Sam, Rosie and Jim and Pingu, this was a show I used to watch a lot when I was little. How I miss it. The look of the show is great, the theme song is enough to make you sing along, the characters are really endearing(I remember loving Jess, the adorable black and white cat most of all) and the story lines are simple and fun. Add some nice writing, thoughtful narration and the show's nostalgic value for me and you have a simply great show. It wasn't predictable at all, the length was just right as was the pacing and it was just great show really. Nothing else really to say other than a well deserved 9/10 Bethany Cox
