Brian Cant was not just any children's presenter, he narrated my childhood. Mainly Camberwick Green and Trumpton and that alone elevates the man to greatness.
RIP Brian.

A proper old school children's entertainer who may just have inspired some to try a creative art. I used to love playaway. Thanks Bri and RIP.

He was a permanent fixture in my childhood too. I remember him for Play School and Play Away more than anything. Another sad loss from an era of greats: John Noakes and Tony Hart being my other favourites. RIP and thanks, Brian Cant.

The camberwick trilogy is genius.
RIP
On a separate note I often wonder why they don't make a classic kids to channel on the sky box. So much good stuff just archived

This is an amusing pastiche and humorous homage to Camberwick Green. It shows how the work of Brian (and others) stayed with a whole generation and cemented itself into popular culture.

Chigley, Trumpton and Camberwick, good stuff. He was a daft Cant on Play School, but a harmless one.

Pugh, Pugh, Barney McGrew, Cuthbert, Dibble and Grub....
Must have recited that a thousand times today
Another childhood voiceover legend leaves this world just like Peter Sallis (voice of Wallace & Grommit) from 2 weeks ago.
Sad news...
