major_clanger: Clangers (Royal Mail stamp) (Small Clanger)
[personal profile] major_clanger
As lots of my friends are noting, Oliver Postgate - creator of The Clangers, together with Bagpuss, Noggin the Nog, Ivor the Engine and many other fondly-remembered staples of my youth, has died at 83.

I think my Small Clanger icon is looking particularly bereft this morning.

*minor key whistling with lots of downward slides, ending on a gently life-affirming upnote, possibly suggesting that 83 ain't bad and his creations live on*
