Clangers. a beloved British series originally launched in 1969 by its writer narrator and animator Oliver Postgate returns to broadcast television under the stewardship of Postgates son Daniel. All of the features of the original series have been retained but updated to 21st century colors and materials. The main characters are the Clanger family a group of pink knitted mouse like creatures who walk upright. Mother Major who is the father Small and Tiny the children and Granny. Clanger Planet is small enough to walk its circumference and is also riddled with caves and tunnels that house the family and their friends. the Soup Dragon and her baby the three Froglets and a group of singing flowers. Contextual features and characters include a sideways lake singing trees a cloud that has emotions flying cows and The Iron Chicken who lives in a nest of harvested metal parts from the detritus of outer space. The tone is existential. Each day presents its own story which is usually happily resolved by one of the children or another family member. The series is fittingly narrated by William Shatner Captain Kirk from the Star Trek television series.
