Clangers

Clangers was a puppet TV show for children.

History
watched an episode of Clangers while he was imprisoned on Fortress Island. He whistled along with the noises they made. When the prison governor Colonel George Trenchard asked him what he was watching, the Master responded that "it seems to be a rather interesting extraterrestrial lifeform." Trenchard told him "Just puppets, you know. For children." The Master expressed disappointment over this. (TV: The Sea Devils)
