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
RosalieDon’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.
