Come Outside

Loved this show as a child. I still remember the lessons I was taught from this show, I.e. certain types of daffodils. Might not seem much but has definitely helped in the pub quiz

Wow, what a wonderful show. Although I am 18 now, I will always have a soft spot for Come Outside. Along with Pingu, Tots TV, Spot the Dog and Rosie and Jim, this was one of my first childhood memories, and what a delightful childhood memory it was too. Come Outside is lovingly filmed, lovely shots of the countryside and such and the photography is simple yet skillful. The theme tune is beautiful, simple and easy to sing along to, not to mention easy to remember. The vocals were stunning too. The stories are educational, fun and innocent, and the dialogue is nice. I absolutely love Lynda Baron(from Open All Hours) as Auntie Mabel, she is so warm and loving, and her dog Pippin, she was cute and endearing. Overall, lovable and wonderful, a must watch for kids! 10/10 Bethany Cox

I remember watching this years ago when I was a kid, it was one of the best educational program I have seen, the main plot is Aunt Mable and pippin would go in there spotted plane and visit some where like a paper factory, and explain how it all worked!

Come Outside is aimed at younger children of primary school age and each episode covers a different subject.

Auntie Mable and her dog Pippin usually visit a factory in her spotted aeroplane to see how a certain product is made and how we get it. The show also includes a song and animated sequence. It can even be educational for adults too!

Auntie Mable is played by Linda Baron, better known as Nurse Gladys Emanuel in the comedy Open All Hours, where she starred alongside Ronnie Barker. She also sings the Come Outside theme song.

The show is often repeated at regular intervals on BBC2, often in the morning.

Me too it was on cbebbies on sky and I come from school to watch it
