RIP Oliver Postgate.
9 Dec 2008 06:22 pmI was saddened to read of the death of Oliver Postgate - Ivor the Engine and Noggin the Nog are cherished memories of my early childhood, Bagpuss, The Pogles, and The Clangers favourite memories of my later childhood and teens, and all of them have been favourites for all my adult life.
In a tribute to Oliver Postgate I am re-posting, beneath the cuts, my two earliest pieces of fanfic - probably the world's first, possibly only, Buffyverse/Bagpuss crossover ficlets.
( Midday at the Lost And Found )
And ( Once More With Bagpuss )
If you are, sadly, unfamiliar with the works of Oliver Postgate here is a link to a Bagpuss site.
Also - if you are unfamiliar with Bagpuss you might wonder why both ficlets start in exactly the same way - this is because this is how the programme always started.
