Cricket St Thomas - Mr Blobby's Home

Mr Blobby's Home

Cricket Park was also the home of BBC television's Mr Blobby's house, named 'Dunblobbin' situated at the rear of the park. Mr. Blobby, the house and its gardens appeared as an attraction in the park in 1994, but it soon closed after just two years as fans lost interest with the TV character shortly after Noel's House Party went off air. Remains of the house and its 'blobbyland' theme park can still be seen today, overgrown and strewn with fallen leaves and mud.

Famous quotes containing the word home:

    The fetish of the great university, of expensive colleges for young women, is too often simply a fetish. It is not based on a genuine desire for learning. Education today need not be sought at any great distance. It is largely compounded of two things, of a certain snobbishness on the part of parents, and of escape from home on the part of youth. And to those who must earn quickly it is often sheer waste of time. Very few colleges prepare their students for any special work.
    Mary Roberts Rinehart (1876–1958)
