Nigel is always bringing things home that he has “found” ……
…. and yesterday was no exception, because Nigel found a very wet and bedraggled Bagpuss abandoned under one of the benches near shops.
“I couldn’t just leave it him there, ” he said “he looked so sad and pathetic and when I squeezed him, he was so wet through, he dripped ……..!”So a Bagpuss was duly bought home ……
…… where Darrell suggested that the best course of action was to stick Bagpuss straight in the washer!
Naturally, this was a little traumatic for Nigel (and Bagpuss) but it had to be done ….
….. followed by a quick tumble in the dryer.
But all the aforementioned trauma was well worth it, because in the end Bagpuss emerged looking like a very different creature……
……. with Nigel being the hero of the day …….. 
…… with a new friend to look after and play with!!!! What is he like?

Having seen a few episodes of Bagpuss, it does seem like Nigel should have his own Bagpuss......do you think the next step is a little shop to collect lost items? Perhaps Tallulah could play the part of Emily.....so many possibilities with Nigel having his own Bagpuss!.....Dianne
I am pleased the saggy cloth cat didn't come even looser at the seams in the washing machine.
Good old Oliver Postgate.
