Snailsbury Tales

Snailsbury Tales is a children's cartoon broadcast on the BBC (on both the CBBC channel and its BBC Two slot) between 2002 and 2005.[1] It was produced by Maverick Entertainment.[2]

The cartoon was about a town whose inhabitants were all snails. Much of the humour derived from the fact that it would take 10 days to visit the shops, or that the fire service was proud of their ability to move at 0.1 mph.

The shows voice cast featured Jon Culshaw as the narrator and additional voices, alongside David Holt, Sheila Steafel and Mike Hurley providing the female characters and other additional voices such as the children. Backgrounds were drawn by Matt Cooley, an art teacher at Wanstead High School.

gollark: Of course you do.
gollark: I'm sure there are many subscription services with a better value proposition than "you get more emojis".
gollark: Indeed.
gollark: Consider what else you could do with £5 or whatever per month. You could buy 1 to 4 cups of coffee. You could save that amount of money for later use. You could buy random trinkets. You could subscribe to some other random service.
