I loved Rosie and Jim.

Nice interview Jack, I didn’t realise Brenda had worked on T-Bag as you know made by Thames in Teddington, plus her funny stories and antidotes working on The Sooty Show for Thames and Sooty & Co for Granada

In the Series 2 episode ''Hats''' which canal near Birmingham does John lose his hat in? I would love to find that filming location. Also love the video, I hope you do a second one of Rosie and Jim filming locations. Because one of my favourite episodes from Series 1 which is ''Steam''' where John accidently runs the Ragdoll aground on some mud. A scene with a steam engine on the Seven Valley Railway is shown, but the river doesn't run alongside that part of the line only going under the bridge which the Ragdoll isn't seen doing so. Which means a bit of trick filming which is worth mentioning. th-cam.com/video/BYYwZZC9noQ/w-d-xo.html Ps here's the link to the ''Steam''' episode.

Could you get Richard Cadell on ? He owns the Sooty franchise now.

Remember watching Rosie&Jim as a kid myself 🤣 such nostalgia and very good! Big part of everyone's childhood in the 90s ❤

Live very close to the glass cone in wordsley. Mom never realised it was the same place as the show 😂

God some of these scared me so kuch as a kid such as the: Come outside fire episode Carlton logo at the beginning of every trip to the cinemas in the 2000's

At least Neil was more normal of playing a harmonica than Richard O’Brien.

My childhood thank you John Culiffe 🥹🥹

And john was still the best man for doing it when it was on i rember this very well

Good video, I didn’t realise how much of it was around Birmingham. I know one episode about a coracle was filmed in Bewdley Museum.

Thank you :) I really enjoyed your video. I grew up on the British Inland Waterways, living in canal boats from the early 70’s but we never ‘did’ Birmingham. Anyone know what happened to the Ragdoll? Anybody seen her? It’s unlikely her name will have changed as that’s one of the strongest sailor superstitions (I can’t remember the reasoning) to never change the name of a boat. She looks about 55 feet, lovely girl :)

John culiffe was my friends uncle. Such a nice bloke. He used to own a music shop. My mum bought a ukulele from him which i still own to this day.

How long is this series going to last?

Great to have the show back, I'm a very big fan of Sooty and Sweep (and Soo, as well), it's cool that you got Brenda Longman, especially being uploaded the day after my 21st birthday and 32 years after the original broadcast of "Happy Birthday, Sooty" too!

I loved the Ragdoll shop, being a Brummie myself, when we visited Stratford we always had to visit the shop. One of my favourite parts was the Rosie and Jim boat that you could sit in and watch episodes, me and my sister could have stayed there all day! This was really interesting, i might visit someone of the locations myself.

Great to see the podcast back, and video too! You're such a good interviewer Jack!

I remembered watching the Sooty Show and Sooty and Co on ITV back in the 90's when I was very young. I really do enjoying watching the show and I really do wished the whole series is finally released onto complete DVD collection at last since it's not on TV anymore.

Please do a video on Balamory considering that Balamory is getting a reboot in 2026.

Brilliant stuff, I enjoyed every minute of this episode.

This was awesome. My 3 year old now 5 used to watch the old episodes so knows the show very well. Still a show that can captivate today’s children. Thank you Brenda for being part of my childhood as well as my sons. I’m 34 for reference

Does anyone know where the original puppets are now?

Been to Victoria Bridge on Severn Valley Railway where John passed in episode called Steam.

Fantastic video jack thanks so much 👍😊🤩😎😁

About to jump on a 5 hour train to New York. Perfect timing!

I think you should do locations with Pat Huchins & Neil B too . Great video trip down Memory lane

Brenda Longman is not only a Great singer , She was great playing Mo from Market in Sooty & Co for 5 years between 1993 till 1998 other then Soo the Panda . i love all of the bits of Brenda Longman playing Mo from Market, I bet Brenda favourite song was There's no show business like show business . I bet Brenda loves singing that song . but thinks for uploading the interview with Brenda, Jack

Thank you so much for this! ❤

Wow. You're a lucky lad being able to chat with one of the most recognisable voices for Sooty (since he can't talk, himself) This should be a good listen!

Thanks so much for uploading this to TH-cam Jack

Happy anniversary... my 3 kids absolutely loved it (and I did too!). A fantastic show...

Great video thank you for bringing back many local memories 👍

John was changed to Neal

Very good love Rosie and Jim

Excellent work! Such a well made behind the scenes video. Would love to see more like this.

The engine house down on Netheron canal had a steam engine in it, it is on display in America as far as I know, the area is where my Nan and Grandad used to live at and I remember walking along the canal when I was a kid.

I first seen this since when I was a kid. I don't remember much

Brirningham was the location of the National Indoor Arena, Broadcasting Landmark of the UK Gladiators 1992 - 1999.

I live in the West Midlands as well and I remember watching Rosie and Jim when I was a kid and I know a lot of the locations as featured in the episodes.

I would love to see the complete series collection of Rosie & Jim to be released on DVD officially. All the way from 1990-2000.

I do remember watching Rosie & Jim on video

They don’t make shows like this anymore

Could you do a vid of Brum filming locations?

Really very interesting Jack I’ve always wanted to visit where it was filmed and if you ever visit the river again go for a fish and see if you can find John’s lost hat 😂😂 RIP Fizgog.. where have those 6 years gone.

R.I.P John Culiffe 1933-2018. Of Postman Pat & Rosie and Jim.

John Cunliffe made Postman Pat and Rosie and Jim

Brilliant video. Back in December last year I actually went to the butterfly farm where the butterfly episode was filmed. Would you do a video based on filming locations of some of the outdoor episodes of Tots TV? I know very few of some of the locations.

Living around that sort of area, you'll probably be able to work out better than me where it was, but the hardware store in 'Painting' was on Cradley Heath high street.

Nice for everyone to adore Robin Stevens in "Tots TV."
