Clangers is a British stop-motion animated children's television series of short stories about a family of
murine
creatures who live on, and inside, a small moon-like planet. They speak
only in whistles, and eat green soup supplied by the Soup Dragon and
blue string pudding. The programmes were originally broadcast by BBC1 between 1969 and 1972, followed by the first of three special episodes that was broadcast in 1974.
