Stargate was invented by the Clangers!

[elogium]

Has anyone seen page 11 of the October SFX?
There is a fantastic picture showing childrens 1970's favourites The Clangers, and they have a Stargate! It was used by the Frogletts who entered the gate and ended up somewhere else! Mad!

[ysm]

Who/What were the Clangers and who/what were the Frogetts??:erm:

The Clangers are these really cute little alien guys who live on the moon theres a family of them i can't remember all of their names but i do have this really cute Tiny or Something Clanger that my friend gave me and if you squeeze its hand it whistles for you!

 

[Moradum]

There was also a Soup Dragon who lives on the moon with the Clangers.


.... It was a weird puppet/animation kids programme.... a VERY weird puppet/animation kids programme. I think the writers were taking some mind bending stuff when they thought up it! (Same goes for the teletubbies!)

Could you imagine if SG1 leapt through the stargate and ended up meeting the clangers?

Clanger: "Awooooohoooo"

Daniel: "He says "hello""


Oh, I made a clanger avatar awhile ago, here it is so you guys don't know what the clangers look like now do!
(Although you wanna hear the noises they make!)

Nah, if anything they look like a woolly cross between an elephant and an aadvark.

He is actually a she, it has a baby soup dragon and they.... serve the clangers soup together.

(British kid programmes of the later 70's, early 80's were really messed up!)
