Its about 3 Clowns in Brighton. Mr Pumpkin, Potty the Pirate and Tommy Tickle.

Very good and very sad. I think its a series.  :D  8-)

Hi Fairby,
I watched it last night and again this morning (I've got man flu at the moment so don't sleep well!).
I agree it was a mixed bag. I hope it is a series however.

Thanks for the link, it certainly was interesting with a lot of talking points.

I watched last night - very interesting, Tommy Tickle had some problems didn't he - thank goodness my kids aren't like his daughter but he was quite a good entertainer but 8 parties in two days???

Mr Pumpkin was, in my opinion, the best entertainer but still some sadness there. I couldn't work out the Pirate chap he didn't seem to connect with the children

The Great Velcro gave in to a disruptive child and slapped him - any tips on handling a kid like that?

I've had a similar situation doing a kids disco party for what should have been 20 kids but turned out to be 30, and one lad creating havoc whilst the parents sat in the kitchen, I took him to one side and had a firm word which calmed him down a little.

..............im finding it hard to be politically correct but that Tommy was awful, if i had him booked my daughters party and i just watched the programme, i would of canx him ASAP, i dont think he did himself any favours. I really liked the pirate thought that was quite good!!
