It's a busy time here at MTII - what with Christmas just around the corner, and with now over 200 (yes, two hundred!) messages of support and thanks for Mr Tumble / Justin Fletcher. Keep them coming! Don't forget we are only an unofficial fansite, but the makers of Something Special at the BBC do know about us...!
It's about time we released the results of our latest poll . . . and by a HUGE margin you decided that Mr Tumble should stick with the Makaton signing system with 371 (87%) of the votes!
Check below for our new question - which TV Channel do you prefer for your tots...?
See you soon . . . MT Team

Don't forget - Something Special (featuring the awesome Justin Fletcher as Mr Tumble) is still ON - BBC2, 9.20am (that's twenty past nine in the morning for the clever 3 year olds reading this!). Many thanks to everyone who's left a message - Mr Tumble is as popular as ever!!!
It's also good to see that eBay are doing some relevant advertising on this site - about time - I know it doesnt show every time (it's all part of Google's Adwords rotational system!) but at least it's stuff that we may want from the most famous auction site in the world. Yay!

Please see http://www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/contact/ for info about DVD's etc - don't forget, we are not an official MrTumble Site!!
However, we do know that the MrTumble production team at the BBC know about this site, so your praise and comments about Mr Tumble are sure to be appreciated!!

Just a reminder of the great BBC website for our hero - http://www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/somethingspecial/ - you can find all sorts here - games a speciality!!
Enjoy!
Mr Tumble to receive an OBE?!
10th August 2007 - Many thanks to Tombliboo who has informed us (see message board below) of the petition on the Prime Ministers website where you can register your support to award Justin Fletcher (who of course plays Mr Tumble!) an OBE! Goto http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/Cbeebies/ to register your vote. We have!
July 13th 2007 - We've added a new survey - to find out if fans of Mr Tumble would prefer him to stick with the Makaton sign language system, or switch to the more widely used British Sign Language (BSL) - click here for more info. To find out more about Makaton, click here.
The results of the original question - was Mr Tumble really making rude signs - was a resounding NO - in fact 95% (330 votes!) said he was innocent! Thanks to everyone that voted - including the 11 mavericks who said Mr Tumble should be sent to the naughty step.
To Victoria B : Thanks for the message!! To be fair to the Beeb, Something Special is still being shown on CBeebies, but the schedules are changed every now and then! See the 'Mr Tumbles TV Times' link on the left for the bang-up-to-date BBC schedule for Mr Tumble / Something Special. All the best, MTII Ed.
The Guestbook is still open - please feel free to support Mr Tumble by leaving a message below (over 75 left so far!!!)

8/5/07 : Mr Tumble is back on CBeebies .... weekdays from Monday ... 9:20am and repeated at 12:20pm!
