Ermintrude - Magic Roundabout

Another one from 'memory lane'.

Ermintrude the cow, from the BBC TV series "Magic Roundabout".

I came across this little soft toy whilst sorting out a box of old 'stuff'!

The BBC series was based on an original French series of short stories, the characters had different names and the British version was written and read by Eric Thompson. (Nigel Planer took over the role of narrator in later years).

It is thought that Ermintrude (Azalee in France) was loosely based on Eric Thompson's wife, the actress Phyllida Law.
