Fan Art Friday: Whybird and Poppy the Cat from Playdays by Cynthia Felgate

Happy Fan Art Friday Everyone! Today there will be only one fan art. The drawing was thought of a couple of months back. I felt that now would be a good time to draw and show it to you now.

The fan art that I'll be showing is of Whybird and Poppy the cat from the Children's programme Playdays created by Cynthia Felgate. This was a show that I watched in my early childhood. I absolutely adored it. It was shown on BBC One on CBBC (back in the 90's it was known as Children's BBC). It was shown everyday and what was significant about each day was that the Playbus stopped at different bus stop. In the case of these two characters shown below, there was the Whybird Stop where Whybird would be seen in the lost and found room finding things also she would have a Why-tech computer which would should how items seen in the room was made. Different characters were introduced like Poppy and also another character called Peggy. There was an episode that I can remember where Whybird goes to the Whytech and finds out how crisps were made. I then automatically serves crisps to the her and the other characters.

There was another stop called the Poppy Stop. This segment introduced Poppy the cat. The episode that I can remember from Poppy's Stop was when Poppy had a whole bunch of sweets. She ate somewhere within the beginning of the episode, she then eats the rest of them within interval and at some point gets very ill. That's all I can remember from the series but I admit it was very interesting to watch. This was a show that I think would always remember as it was always fun to watch when I was young. I was quite saddened when it ended as I grew up watching the show. I decided to put on Christmas headbands for both of them to represent C Here's the drawing:




There will be more fan art next week. Thank you for visiting and please leave a comment.
