R.I.P Mr. Cunningham and Badger. Thank you for all those childhood memories of 90s television. You will always bring a smile to my face. Mashed potato! Thank you sir. God Bless x
“And a special big hello to people sitting on the toilet”….….this is 10,000% proof that Badger either traveled back in time to the 90s from present day, or was an Oracle that could see the future where everyone has pocket TV’s , which they whip out while they wait to wipe, watching weird and whacky shows from their childhood! Just don’t forget to wash those hands before you go off to make mash potatoes after this everyone!!
That's another way to look at it ;) Andy Cunningham was born 13/5/1950 making him 44 in this, I thought he looked older than that at the time. I was 1 in 1994 when this episode was brand new!
I was a bit old for this when it aired but I still remember the theme tune. Saw a picture of a badger online and there was the song right there in my head. That and MUSHROOM MUSHROOM, of course. Weird how brains work.
Fun Fact: Bodger and Badger are voiced by the same person (Andy Cunningham). Listen to the end of the line starting at 5:39, he slips into Badger's voice by mistake for a split second on 'potato'.
They should have been exposed as child snatchers a lot sooner. I’ll bet loads of those kids who entered those things went missing or won trips to visit the bbc studios.
Up until very recently I always thought someone else voiced Badger. Looking back now it's obvious when you watch Andy Cunningham when Badger is speaking (his ventriloquist skills aren't exactly en pointe).
I remember this well, season 5 had some rather good episodes back in the day. My favourites were Mr. Sellby's Pictures, Mashy Mouse, Cosmic Potatoes and One of those days. One thing I will say though is Mousey could have done with some serious character development.
No, he created the programme for the BBC, he even owned the Badger puppets (there were more than one over the years) because he used Badger and other puppets in theatre shows and at children's parties before B&B started in 89 (he sent in an audition videotape of him performing the children's party act he did to the head of the BBC Children's Department). He wrote the programme, created the characters and even played the main character, so he was so involved in making the programme that only he could have pulled it off. Anyone else doing this would be nowhere near as good. Nice thought, but it wouldn't work.
How did I forget about this? 🥹 My childhood! I loved this series and remember 2-3 year old me killing myself laughing at badger throwing food everywhere 😂 "Scoop out the middle and put it carefully to one side!" Proceeds to fling the spoon over his shoulder 🤣
Ok gecko boob face has been cancelled now its a puma slazenger badger as a E cloud curve skid mark species on the left and on the right theres a new stonehendge which was the the eagle cover which came from the gorillas nose who helping koba 😂 Like i said naughty children keep on changing costumes to get caught by the teacher which is me 😂
As I said to another commenter above: This is a 1994 episode, but this recording is from a repeat in about 2000. What confirms it as being before 1997 anyway are the BBC logos. The current blocks one (1997 to date) on the continuity at the start of the episode, but the old pre-1997 underlined rhombus BBC logo right at the very end (though the aspect ratio of the upload is wrong, so you can't see the underlined bit of that logo). When the logo changed in 1997, the setting for B&B changed to from this bedsit flat to the hotel, so this is definitely 1997 or before. This is a series five episode, which was recorded in 1994 but first transmitted in early 1995.
RIP man. Made my childhood a better time.
Not somebody else who has died RIP
Snap man loved this after school everyday at ten to 4 lol I'm 35 now must have been 10 or something haha this n chuckvison

RIP, such a great show when you were young growing up in the nineties!!! :)
Loved this as a kid, RIP Bodger
Ah my childhood TV show good old days with decent things in TV.
This show had me obsessed with mash potatoes when I was in nursery. I made mash potato every day thanks to Badger.

RIP bodger.. Absolutely loved this as a kid. Thanks for the memories 😔
mollers92 rip x
'Bodger and badger are never far away'
R.I.P Mr. Cunningham and Badger. Thank you for all those childhood memories of 90s television. You will always bring a smile to my face. Mashed potato! Thank you sir. God Bless x
I used to watch this with my daughter, so sorry to hear Andy's not with us anymore. It was a strange program, but it was funny. R.I.P.Andrew. x
How the hell isit strange??
This was one of my favourite programmes as a kid lol fond memories :-)
“And a special big hello to people sitting on the toilet”….….this is 10,000% proof that Badger either traveled back in time to the 90s from present day, or was an Oracle that could see the future where everyone has pocket TV’s , which they whip out while they wait to wipe, watching weird and whacky shows from their childhood!
Just don’t forget to wash those hands before you go off to make mash potatoes after this everyone!!
That was yesterday which game them the short end of the straw 😭
Rip Andy Cunningham. :(
RIP Bodger and badger, made me laugh and cry when I was younger. I use to love this when I was little. Still do x
Rip bodger. Sat down with my two year old yesterday to let her watch it for the first time. So many giggles from her, she absolutely loves it.
Rip bodger
Rest in potatoes
R.I.P.
This Puppet Badger sounds
just like the British Boxer Frank Bruno
At 6:04 when he bounces the doorknob. That's the Casino Night bumper sound effect from Sonic The Hedgehog 2 😳
There was another CBBC programme called 'Marlene Marlow Investigates' and that used sound effects from the Sonic games all the time.
RIP Andy Cunningham
'people watching this sitting on the toilet' is much more fitting for 2016!
thanks for uploading. They don't make them like they used to :( Who can dislike this.
15 ppl
Andy Cunningham who played Bodger has died RIP
Damien Le Maistre Rest in potatoes 😭
That's another way to look at it ;) Andy Cunningham was born 13/5/1950 making him 44 in this, I thought he looked older than that at the time. I was 1 in 1994 when this episode was brand new!
He looked really young in the first episode in 1989!
R.I.P thanks for making my childhood great
1994 - how did Badger know I'd be watching this whilst sitting on the toilet in 2017?
"Evrey body knows badger loves MASHPOTATOS!!!"
I was a bit old for this when it aired but I still remember the theme tune. Saw a picture of a badger online and there was the song right there in my head. That and MUSHROOM MUSHROOM, of course. Weird how brains work.
I remember sitting in a tent at Glastonbury watching Andy do his Bodger and Badger show when i was younger, RIP fella.... :-(
RIP....YOU MADE US SMILE....
0:00 god the old cbbc animations in the background, childhood memories...!
R.I.P Bodger you brought back memories of the past
Watched this as kid. It's actually quite funny still.
Can't believe I used to watch this crap, lol, then again it is better than most of the rubbish on for kids these days!!!
Mousy hahaha. RIP bodger.
Fun Fact: Bodger and Badger are voiced by the same person (Andy Cunningham). Listen to the end of the line starting at 5:39, he slips into Badger's voice by mistake for a split second on 'potato'.
My childhood 😍😍😍♥️
RIP Andy Cunningham :'(

RIP Bodge.
RIP bodger
Alright badgeee!! Alright Mouseyyy!!
Man my childhood
Totally didn't just meet these guys yesterday
Kelly Wilson omg really? Where? And lucky. He passed away a few days ago. RIP. Xx
In hindsight, asking kids to send in pictures of themselves is kinda VERY weird.
Right at the start of the video there you have the bbc asking for photos of your children. 🤔
They should have been exposed as child snatchers a lot sooner. I’ll bet loads of those kids who entered those things went missing or won trips to visit the bbc studios.
RIP Andy
please bring badger back
rip sleep well thak you for some great times
Up until very recently I always thought someone else voiced Badger. Looking back now it's obvious when you watch Andy Cunningham when Badger is speaking (his ventriloquist skills aren't exactly en pointe).
This was the show of shows
I remember this well, season 5 had some rather good episodes back in the day. My favourites were Mr. Sellby's Pictures, Mashy Mouse, Cosmic Potatoes and One of those days. One thing I will say though is Mousey could have done with some serious character development.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 very funny bring them back.
Can't do that, he died back in June.
Yes I know but even the it whatn't be the same as the aridinal show someone else could continue in his place just a thought.
No, he created the programme for the BBC, he even owned the Badger puppets (there were more than one over the years) because he used Badger and other puppets in theatre shows and at children's parties before B&B started in 89 (he sent in an audition videotape of him performing the children's party act he did to the head of the BBC Children's Department). He wrote the programme, created the characters and even played the main character, so he was so involved in making the programme that only he could have pulled it off. Anyone else doing this would be nowhere near as good.
Nice thought, but it wouldn't work.
That sound effect 6:05 sounds like it was taken from one of the Sonic The Hedgehog computer games.
Does anyone notice Andy plays badger too you can tell by his voice
Rip Andy Cunningham :( so saddd
"What we're after is photographs of what you look like" that just doesn't sound ok
especially on the fucking BBC
Jacob Karr badgergate
I came here to say the same thing, lol.
Childhood

This is such a funny episode!

Rest in peace
My childhood 😕
rip bodger
How did I forget about this? 🥹 My childhood! I loved this series and remember 2-3 year old me killing myself laughing at badger throwing food everywhere 😂
"Scoop out the middle and put it carefully to one side!" Proceeds to fling the spoon over his shoulder 🤣
my mom loved this show cuz she loved mash potato
Thanks for this, do you have any CBeebies?
Who is going to Replace Andy Cunningham
for the Similar voice of Badger.
Badger’s voice sounds just like
the former British Boxer Frank Bruno
There is a guy who has taken over. He's amazing, met him today at Stoke on trent comic con. He had the original badger with him
2:28; that laugh lol
Trying to put the shelf up with mashed patato 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Who else only watched this cause in top 10s said to
me
Hollie Shepherd me
0:40 he said Hi to Harry Potter :´)
There's 124 episodes of this.
Ok gecko boob face has been cancelled now its a puma slazenger badger as a E cloud curve skid mark species on the left and on the right theres a new stonehendge which was the the eagle cover which came from the gorillas nose who helping koba 😂
Like i said naughty children keep on changing costumes to get caught by the teacher which is me 😂
did he say "shit" after the intro?
I never realised badger a cockney 😂😂
Sorry, did he open with "Shit.. uh"?
90s tv was the shit its just well shit nowdays shame
There's no way this is 1994. That lad Bob the Builder in the background was much later
***** might be a re-run from 1994?
***** so was that song playing in the background ...late 90's
The repeat is from CBBC on Choice, which broadcast Archive programmes from 29th November 1999-10th February 2002 then CBeebies replaced it.
braaaap braaaap mash it up mash it up
r.i.p
