The Magic Roundabout
I briefly mentioned The Magic Roundabout (a fairground carousel)in another post and now thought I’d give you the names of the characters. The series ran from 1965-1977 and used the stop motion animation from an older French series but created different scripts and characters.
Dougal - drop eared Skye Terrier
Zebedee - Jack-in-the-box
Ermintrude - Cow
Dylan - Hippy Rabbit
Brian - Snail
Florence - Girl
Mr Rusty - Roundabout Operator
Mr McHenry - A Gardener
Three other children appear in the first series and in the title music but rarely in later series.
Paul
Basil
Rosalie
Don’t take criticism from someone you wouldn’t take advice from

I never saw the film. In 2005 I was 21 years old. I watched it in the 1980s
Ermintrude is a cute name for a cow.
Rosalie is a nice old fashioned name that works well on a modern character too.

I like Florence and Basil.
