Characters The Raggy Dolls Sad Sack -- A sample of a design that was deemed too expensive to mass - produce ; his appearance is somewhat different from that of the others. He is the oldest of the seven Raggy Dolls in the Reject Bin. As his name suggests, he is very gloomy and cynical, but he still values his friendship with the other dolls. Dotty - As the oldest next to the lethargic Sad Sack, she sees herself as the leader of the group and is often very bossy. She is so named because she accidentally had paint spilt on her hair and clothing. Dotty 's main catchphrase is : `` Good thinking ! '' Hi - Fi -- He converses with stammer due to him being dropped during testing. It was also stated in episode `` The Trouble with Claude '' that he was wired incorrectly, hence the stammer. He always wears headphones, which allow him to tune into radio and communication signals from seemingly any source. Lucy -- Her limbs are inadequately attached with nylon thread, her name being a pun on the word `` loose ''. She is shy and easily frightened, but always kind - hearted and loyal to her friends. She can be brave on occasion, as first seen in the episode `` Ghosts ''. She speaks with a Northern accent. Back - To - Front -- He is a handyman doll with a backward - facing head ( as a result of the manufacturer putting his head on the wrong - way round ) and a love of machines.

He speaks with a French accent, and sometimes alternates between speaking English and French. He also has a notable talent for cooking. Princess -- She should have been a beautiful princess doll, but the machine accidentally cut her hair and left her dress in rags.
