In the Night Garden 539 1669 ITNG Igglepiggle's Bath-time Lightshow Boat

Product Information

Now the ending is what really got me. For each episode, his friends play around for 25 mins or so. But, it's at the end that the narrator begins to tell everybody to 'go to sleep'. Unfortunately, Iggle Piggle is always seen to be awake at the end. Despite his best efforts to fall asleep, the narrator says "Its time to go". To me, this means its time for Iggle Piggle to leave the night garden and continue his days upon the boat, suffering on the never-ending sea. In the end, we see Iggle Piggle, still currently in the night garden, drifting the seas, as the sun begins to rise. Soon enough, Iggle Piggle will awake, awaiting the day when his life finally leaves him and he's able to be with his friends forever. I see my kids watching this show all the time. The show seems to be bookended by segments in which Iggle Piggle (the little blue retarded looking character), goes to sleep in his little sail boat as the narrator tells us that he is deep in the ocean and far away from land. The narrator also tells us in a reassuring voice that he is "safe".

In the United Kingdom, In the Night Garden... debuted on 19 March 2007 and aired its final episode on 6 March 2009. From 23 April until 10 June 2007, the show took a break from airing on the CBeebies channel although it was still shown on BBC Two. From 11 June 2007 until 28 March 2008, the show aired on the CBeebies channel every day, including weekends, at 6:25pm in the "Bedtime Hour" slot, in addition to earlier 11am showings on BBC Two on weekday mornings. [11] From 29 March until 29 August 2008, In The Night Garden... was removed from its 6:25pm "Bedtime Hour" slot, which resulted in a nationwide fan petition outside the BBC's Television Centre studios asking for the programme to be re-instated to its normal slot. [10] The show returned to the daily "Bedtime Hour" slot at 6.20pm as of 30 August 2008 and began showing the second series (beginning with "Slow Down Everybody") on 1 September 2008. [12] From 3 January until 4 September 2009, the show was moved to a 6:00pm transmission time but was still retained in the “Bedtime Hour” slot. From 5 September 2009 onwards; to this day, the show remains in the 6:20pm slot and is traditionally the last full-length programme of the day before the bedtime story segment. The show also aired on Jetix Play. BBC acts over light-skinned doll". BBC News. 5 January 2009. Archived from the original on 26 January 2009 .

Iggle Piggle and his friends, Makka Pakka, Upsy Daisy, The triplets and the small people, as well as their parents, we're all on a boat out at sea having a good time. But, due to a reason, the ship begins to sink or is sunk. Iggle Piggle escapes onto a lifeboat, with nothing more than a safety blanket that he keeps (as he is probably a child). Unfortunately, his friends and parents die on the ship.

I think it’s pretty trippy, I’ve always thought that whoever writes or directs it is on some good drugs” says one friend. ”It’s the kind of TV that could really drive a sleep-deprived mum around the bend.”Andrew Davenport stated in an interview with the Guardian that the key inspiration for the series was his own dream world as a child. This started coming into place in 2004 when Davenport created sketches for the characters of Igglepiggle, Upsy Daisy and Makka Pakka. The series would go on to be publicly announced a year later, and filming would eventually start in early 2005. [5] But is it really? There are lots of conspiracy theories out there about In the Night Garden and its hidden meaning. Several Region 2 DVDs have been released in the United Kingdom by BBC Worldwide since September 2007:
