And did I mention? I found out Fluttershy's favourite kind of music is African acapella, and there's where her favourite music group, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, comes in.

Fluttershy's Cottage
Meet Fluttershy. She wants to invite you in for tea and tell you some home truths about what she has been up to in Ponyville.
Hooray, It's Norman Picklestripes!

Just when you thought he was Factory Create's outsider...
When he was only available in America...
When he was never going to make it to the UK...
YES! HE DID!
So let's welcome my new favourite Sky Kids show, Norman Picklestripes. It contains the same smooth stop motion animation you'd expect to see on Factory Create shows like Scream Street (my other favourite!) and Clangers, but each colourful episode features lots of fun characters who get together to have problem solving adventures. I just recorded an episode, and boy was the song segment fun! It really feels like you're watching a stop-motion Broadway musical. It feels like they're really performing on stage! My favourite parts of the episode I recorded was Norm and his friends dancing with smiley-faced pizzas with arms and legs, and the shadow puppet bit during the song segment in the B story, which actually looks like the makers of a Baby First show about shadow puppets telling stories collided with the team behind Strange Hill High to make it.
So, let's list down my favourites so far:
Strange Hill High
Scream Street
Clangers
Abney & Teal
In The Night Garden (CBeebies Live-Action Version, Not The CGI Sky Kids Version)
My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic
Beep & Mort
And finally, the one and only, all-singing, all-dancing...
*drum roll*
NORMAN PICKLESTRIPES!!!
