Bertha e a Fábrica

i love this series and as it only did 13 episodes it will be one cartoon series that was very short but still one of the best ever made. forget your new cartoons this is what the kids of today should be watching. i just wish that they would release them all on one DVD as they only sell on DVD that has 4 episodes on it which really is not good enough. i know that they will not carry on the series as roy kinnear died in 1989 while filming the return of the Musketeers, if they did it would not be the same as the original. more people need to write to the bbc to get them released on DVD and get it into the kids of todays TV and stop them watching cheap rubbish that is made so quickly it just doesn't make good viewing.

Who can forget this 'claymation' TV show, with it's catchy theme tune? Everyone, it looks like. Bertha, the machine that can make anything....the little robot that moved up and down with a bizarre flatulent-esque sound....the charming ambience of a factory machine that could make anything? Somebody must remember this! I sure do. Shame on you people that haven't posted here. This was a mini-classic of the eighties and early nineties, with an animation style similar to its successor, the inferior Charlie Chalk. It's time this got a little recognition: it certainly stuck in my mind as an impressionable youngster...

Totlay one of the best TV shows around, I have this on VHS and I watch it today! It's songs, Music, characters were the best! Go Ted! Go T.O.M! who remembers the song for T.O.M? :Talk. Opirated. Machine! It ruled! hope you love it to.

Cumon people bring back Bertha!

Thank's for reading,

rate Bertha high!

Bertha, lovely Bertha! Sometimes i think you're a dream! When we work out what you have to do, we can always get the goods out, always get the goods out, We can depend upon you! (^-')

If you like Postman Pat, you will love this! Bertha has so much carm to it, it's a simple show about factory workers, it's full of fun and quite an enjoyable show.

This is such a wonderfully stupid program it really is a gem. The basic idea is that this factory somewhere in England has a machine called Bertha (eyes and everything), which will make anything you want it to, according to what Mr. Sprot (the 'mad scientist' figure) designes and the factory comission. This ranges from mousetraps to differant coloured building blocks. during te course of the episode something invariably goes wrong, and its up to the characters which include Roy (the foreman and Berthas best friend), Panjit (the Pakistani immigrant forklift truck driver), and all the others to sort out. This usually involves Bertha making something else to combat whatever went wrong before. There is so much adult humour in it thought, that it really is a joy to watch for all ages. Its probably difficult to get hold of now, but if you ever get the chance its well worth a go. Enjoy!
