Product Description

Synopsis
Features eight episodes from the classic 70's series: 'When Roobarb Made A Spike', 'When Roobarb Didn't See The Sun Come Up', 'When Roobarb Was Being Bored Then Not Being Bored', 'When The Tree Fell To Pieces', 'When Roobarb Found Sauce', 'When It Was Night', 'When It Was Christmas' and 'When The Sun Was Just Right'.

From the back cover
Roobarb is a dim-but-loveable green mongrel dog who lives in a house in suburbia. Next door lives Custard, a lazy and mischievous bright pink cat who is always ready to poke fun at Roobarb's mishaps.

Each fun-packed episode finds Roobarb going about some lunatic mission or other, closely watched by Custard from his spot on the garden fence and a gang of hysterical birds--which means that there is always an audience to laugh at him when things go wrong... as they invariably do.

Narrated by Richard Briers, this video features eight classic episodes: "When Roobarb Made a Spike", "When Roobarb Didn't See the Sun Come Up", "When Roobarb Was Being Bored Then Not Being Bored", "When the Tree Fell to Pieces", "When Roobarb Found Sauce", "When It Was Night", "When It Was Christmas" and "When The Sun Was Just Right".

Running time: 37 minutes approx.

5.0 out of 5 stars Roobarb the jolly green dog and his escapades still super!, 26 Oct 2001
By A Customer
For anyone who is a fan of Roobarb, the mangey green mongrel, this video is obviously an essential addition to your collection. For those who haven't heard of him, or his cohort Custard the odious cat, rest assured that Roobarb is possibly more beloved by fans of animation, young and old, than Mickey Mouse, who long ago gave up being as inventive and comic.
"When Roobarb Made A Spike",for example, is brilliant, tightly scripted, and never leaves "the back garden". Flying green dogs are funny enough, but when they are flying green BIRD dogs who like to call themselves Roobarb, one simply can't resist!

5.0 out of 5 stars Madder than I remember, 23 Jan 2004
By A. Parsons (Helsinki, Finland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Time's a funny old thing and I remember Roobabrb with great affection from my childhood. I didn't remember how insane it was though. It has some jokes/puns which will be totally lost on small children like 'what a cool yule' at christmas time. This programme also looks at the world from a childlike perspective, my two year old often asks for it to be put on and even sings the theme tune. I can recomend it to any parent who want's to enjoy watching with their offspring.
