:Almost certainly wrong.  The version at the top of the page is more or less my recolection, but it would be as much uncited as both versions here. 86.151.56.235 (talk) 17:55, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

message: My research indicates a different original producer.  I can't find anything to support Lingstrom as producer.  IMDB lists Boisseau as producer.  Can we get a source for Lingstrom as producer in the opening paragraph of the main body of text?  CzechOut 13:16, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Andypandy.jpg

message: There is a discrepancy between sources when the first episode was.  My guess is that 11 July 1950 was the date of the first episode that was filmed in 16mm, and that 20 June 1950 was the unsuccessful first episode broadcast when the strings got tangled resulting in Audrey going home and weeping.  This area needs further research.--Toddy1 (talk) 21:50, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: When was the first episode?

message: Removed her from the infobox on the 2002 version. IMDb lists her for the original live version from 1950 only. Philip Cross (talk) 17:15, 28 October 2012 (UTC)

message: Does anyone know whether the song "Here we go Looby Loo..." was written for this show, or whether it was an existing traditional children's song used by the show?  This US article says that "Here We Go Looby Loo" is "a song from the British TV show "Andy Pandy." Looby Loo was a rag doll who sang this song on the show. She would only come to life when Andy Pandy and Teddy weren't around. Looby Loo swept and dusted and she would sing her special song while she danced and played. This song became popular and found its way into American song books for children."   But, this says: "Words & music: traditional".  Certainly, the song was widely known from the 1950s onwards (if not before), and hit pop versions were recorded by Johnny Thunder (US) and Frankie Vaughan (UK).  It seems more likely to me that the character was named after an existing traditional song, rather than the song being written for the character.  Either way, if we can find good sources, I would have thought the song should have an article on its own.  Ghmyrtle (talk) 12:36, 7 January 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: The version offered by "Miss Winfield, Nottingham" looks the closest to me, although only the Belfast version seems to have "Saturday night". The Donny version features lubins, whatever they might be!! But do these collected versions have reliable dates? Martinevans123 (talk) 13:08, 7 January 2015 (UTC)

message: If the taped episodes didn't get made until 1952, the entire list of air dates for the 1950s episodes is incorrect. Someone needs to do some research. I wonder if BBC Genome has the answers? Digifiend (talk) 08:59, 14 December 2016 (UTC)
thread_title: Contradiction

message: Saying that “Andy Pandy” was one of several marionette shows in the Watch With Mother strand is fine and probably relevant, but it just seems stuck in where it is, and makes a dog’s dinner of the information about Bizzy Lizzy (not “Busy Lizzie” as given) as that too was a puppet show, not “drawn” as stated (were that the case it probably shouldn’t be mentioned here at all).
