🙂THE UNCLE BOBBY SHOW 🙂 - CLICKITY CLACK EXPRESS (1978)

[@robertc5200]

This is why Retro Ontario is one of my favorite KZbin channels. .

[@Sebastian_Dinwiddie]

You’re on a train, on a track. You absolutely know where you’re going.

[@CelesteKTheNewWaveRevue]

Now where's the fun in that?

[@robertwood4923]

I woke up with this song in my head and was happy to find this video. (Why was this song playing in my head? Who knows?)

[@mcaducker]

I remember watching this show in Brampton all the time in the late 1980’s, early 90’s. Great to watch some clips on here again! 2 of the voices from this clip sound like Jim Henson and Judith Lawrence (Casey) from Mr. Dressup. I also remember watching some Uncle Bobby tributes when he died in 2007.

[@emilygrae]

Oh man I had forgotten all about the train! I've had the birthday clowns forever traumatically burned into my brain forever, but this... wow. Back to therapy I suppose!

[@OofusTwillip]

Ever see the real Wilson, Keppel and Betty, whom the little clown dolls were named after? They were an English music hall dance trio, who did a pseudo-Egyptian sand-dance. There are videos of them on KZbin.

[@emilygrae]

@@OofusTwillip Oh awesome! Thank you for telling me about them!

[@vincevega0]

00:48 the train's neck was just a black flex vent.

[@OofusTwillip]

I remembered the song, after all these years. Every word of it. Now, why did I just walk into this room...?

[@cherryjulz]

Omg totally forgot about this! Uncle Bobby was one of my favourite shows😊TY!

[@DaddyOfTheSugarVariety]

Wow, the memories are flooding back!

[@jonathanlegthigh8264]

This is beyond creepy. Train engineer taking kids to an unknown destination - "Just don't ask me where we're going / Cause the fun is never knowing..." *SHUDDER*

[@Bear-nu8xm]

The conductor reminds me of another kids show character

[@SPINNINGMYWHEELS777]

He proclaims he has a thought. Super important.

[@scottgreenwood6907]

Wow that’s a classic. And it’s stuck in my head now lol 😂

[@SPINNINGMYWHEELS777]

that time he reminded children they can think with their own brains without some fantastical item.

[@silvereagle2061]

Isn't one of those voices Jim Henson?

[@joadhenry]

OMG!!

[@vxskud]

This is like a Rick and Morty inter dimensional TV bit

[@sharptoothtrex4486]

The name Bimbo women also take as a big nasty insult. Rest in peace Robert Ash (1924-2007)

[@funforalgernon]

Your most clickity clackbait video yet!

[@ajaugenti1976]

Very cute!

[@SPINNINGMYWHEELS777]

He's got the engineer hat on .. full of business !

[@kylerivoire3826]

Hey retro Ontario, any chance of finding uncle chichimus clips?

[@CSGraves]

Man, that conductor was totally being Stanley Kubrick to the mouse's Shelley Duvall. 8-(

[@shawnattwells5355]

Yikes! It's a Thomas the Tank Engine nightmare. Wouldn't catch this train on the island of Sodor.

[@emajansen]

0:35 OMG so much creepiness summed up in a few seconds. I don't know which one of the muppet is the most creepy or it's the mouse (?) or it's the train's face (?!) or both.
