Teletubbies

Teletubbies was a television programme for very young children that was popular in the United Kingdom on Earth in the late 20th and early 21st century.

In 1997, Mark Whitaker saw a Woolworths with a cardboard cut-out of a Tellytubby outside it. (PROSE: Touched by an Angel)

The Saxon Master, after his election as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, was seen watching an episode of Teletubbies in wonderment, marvelling at the idea of the characters having televisions in their stomachs. (TV: The Sound of Drums)

Luke Tillyard used to watch the program in his youth. (PROSE: Salva Mea)

Behind the scenes

• The Teletubbies scene echoed a scene in The Sea Devils in which the Master enjoyed an episode of Clangers.
• The inside of the Teletubbies house resembles the interior of the Doctor's TARDIS, except that it is not (as far as we know) dimensionally transcendental.
