Bagpuss returns after more than 50 years with film adaptation

The Guardian

|

September 09, 2025

More than half a century has passed since the BBC first aired the 13 episodes of the story of a somnolent pink-and-white striped cat that cemented Bagpuss's place in the annals of TV history.

- Catherine Shoard

Now, "the most beautiful, the most magical saggy old cloth cat in the whole wide world" has been dusted off to star in a film.

The original show was primarily stop-motion with some paper cutout and conventional animation work. The big-screen reboot will combine live action and animation and has a projected release date of 2027.

Voted the all-time favourite children's programme in 1999, the show was made by Peter Firmin and Oliver Postgate, the creators of The Clangers, and filmed in Firmin's barn in Blean, Kent.
