Postman Pat

I can't believe there's only one comment on this show on here! This show was an essential part of my childhood and it's still great today, hence why me and my friends made our own episode. I'm not to sure about the 2004 series with Comedy Jess, but the original Series was great!

The series for those who don't know follows the 'adventures' of Britain, if not the world's favourite postman and his black and white cat Jess.

Many tried to imitate it in later years like Fireman Sam, but although good, that couldn't match Pat, in fact that's a good idea for a 1 on 1 beat-em-up featuring: Portland Bill Postman Pat Fireman Sam & Bertha.

Up the Greendale massive!

Along with Fireman Sam, Rosie and Jim and Pingu, this was a show I used to watch a lot when I was little. How I miss it. The look of the show is great, the theme song is enough to make you sing along, the characters are really endearing(I remember loving Jess, the adorable black and white cat most of all) and the story lines are simple and fun. Add some nice writing, thoughtful narration and the show's nostalgic value for me and you have a simply great show. It wasn't predictable at all, the length was just right as was the pacing and it was just great show really. Nothing else really to say other than a well deserved 9/10 Bethany Cox

Very good, a true masterpiece of the 80's T.V. This series, passes a beautiful message, very good morals and very good examples. Even from those series that mark our childhood. In addition, it has a fantastic stop motion. The only problems in the series are the fact that some (most) of the episodes are quite dry and also that the characters do not wag their mouths as they speak (hence I do not give more stars). Highly recommend for children.

Among the shows I watched growing up, Postman Pat, along with Thomas the Tank Engine, Sooty and Co, Fireman Sam and Inspector Gadget, is a show I truly hold dear, and always will, no matter how old I am.

Postman Pat showcases the simple plot of a friendly and good-natured postman going round the beautiful village of Greendale, delivering letters and parcels to and fro, as well as helping out his friends during certain events that occur, like, for example, stopping an out-of-control robot postman from causing havoc (from the episode Postman Pat and the Robot, one of my favourites), or trying to stop a wild animal causing havoc (from the episode Postman Pat and the Beast of Greendale).

The early series of Postman Pat, 1 and 2, are considered by many to be the most desirable, and I agree.

This review has been made in honour of Ken Barrie, the original voice of the world's most beloved postman, who sadly passed away last year (2016). R. I. P Ken. You did a great job, being the voice of our favourite postman, as well as other characters. You made my childhood and others too, and will never be forgotten.

Postman Pat and his black and white cat, Jess - legends in their own right. I was entertained endlessly by pat and his adventures when I was a young lad. The stories are simple and very easy to understand and teach us all valuable lessons on the road to life about being helpful and kind to your neighbours. With a theme song that rocks and other songs and music that were great to hum along to, Pat was truly a hero for our times. He's changed recently; in my opinion the changes are not that great. They've tried to make Pat even more PC, his lips move (sacrilege!) and there's no more moments of Pat just driving like there were in the 80s...just driving through the countryside. If anything the Postman Pat of today comments on the fast-pace of our children's society. But despite all that, no once can argue that Pat was, is and shall always be the greatest British hero.

8/10
