Although it will be a shame to lose the timeless prose of the wholly unreferenced plot summary which forms the majority of the content in this article - said article wholly sourced to primary sources (and with nothing else evident out there in terms of RSes), this children's TV series signally fails WP:GNG. I remain unconvinced that, although in its own quirky way delightful, "A witch called Dolly Clackhanger would try to steal the bucket from Bimble, many times, for her queen, Kak. She usually sent her gang to steal it. They consist of two Sleazians from Sleaze City who look like punk rockers called Bilge and Oiler, who usually go around on motorised pogo sticks." is the stuff of Wikipedia at its best.

Delete: A search for sources on Google Books, Google News, JSTOR (along with some other library databases), and Newspapers.com only came up with some TV schedules that isn't helpful here (was really expecting at least a few larger-scale articles). No online sources or reviews that I was able to find either. I feel like if this was a show that came out ten years later, we'd have a plethora of sources... alas, it didn't.

Delete: Fails WP:GNG. I could see draftifying as a solution, but I don't expect that would eventually produce anything worthwile in the long run. UtherSRG (talk) 11:58, 16 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

An episode guide has been put together using newspaper sources. Oddly, not even Toonhound has a page for this toon.2A00:23C6:D88E:8901:B82E:E4C8:BB1A:3BA3 (talk) 18:48, 20 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
