50 is the children’s favorite Bagpuss.

Bagpuss, the world's most mystical, elderly, shaggy, and fabric cat, is fifty years old.

Emily, the co-creator’s daughter, starred in the children’s program when it debuted on February 12, 1974.

Bagpuss, created by Peter Firmin and Oliver Postgate, resided in a store that served as a shelter for misplaced items.

“It makes me feel very old because he’s 50 and obviously I was about seven when they took the photographs,” Emily, who is now 58, said.

In Blean, a town outside of Canterbury, Kent, Mr. Firmin’s barn served as the set for the stop-motion animation.

He’s still a favorite because he’s withstood the test of time. Emily, an artist, stated, “I think my father would be so proud that he’s still as popular as when he first came out.”

Even though there were only 13 episodes produced, the show endured as a beloved watch throughout generations and was chosen as the greatest children’s show of all time in 1999.

BBC History: Bagpuss After Emily left the animals alone, Bagpuss would come to life and the sepia to color footage would transition.

Along with Bagpuss, his buddies also awoke, including the musical mice on their magical mouse organ, Gabriel the toad, Madeleine the rag doll, and Professor Yaffle the woodpecker bookend.

They looked over whatever Emily had left them together.

Although the mice frequently sang as well, Gabriel and Madeleine—voiced by John Faulkner and Sandra Kerr—provided stories and music.

Bagpuss is on display at Canterbury’s The Beaney House of Art & Knowledge today.

Every episode included a unique plot, covered a lot of ground, and included a small amount of instruction. That he is so well-liked is astounding,” Emily continued.

“When my sister got home from school, she saw the cloth spread out across our lawn and garden so that [my father] could cut the pieces out.

“Watching movies produced at home didn’t seem strange; in fact, it was fairly common. It was a massive, family-friendly spectacle that was fantastic.”
