Something for major_clanger

The latest in a series of "The girl with..." cartoons

I love it!

I have had to explain The Clangers to darth_hamster (b. 1976)...

Oh well, at least you could give her the expert opinion (reminds me I must finish my Clanger powerpoint in case there's another session of the scientific committee any time soon.)

But what countries did she grow up in? There is a hole in my own UK TV knowledge from 80 to 86 when I was in Cyprus.
