Sweet Mary, Mungo and Midge, you're Wom-bat man.
A Combat Wombat

I want one, they look so cute and cuddly and I want to pick them up and hug them and squeeze them and call them George.

George!

What do you mean, A episode? They recycled that joke a hundred times in Warner Bros cartoons; I think Daffy Duck was on the receiving end a couple of times, too. Reference, of course, to Of Mice and Men, although Lennie never actually says that he wants to call the mouse George.

True, true... I just remember the episode where he first popped up.

Incidentally my first car was called George for just this reason

Hah! Paul (Sherbetsaucers) was an actor and had lines on Grange Hill. Mind you, I did once sit in the background of a local news crew when they came to interview my ex-headmaster
