Mr Blobby was a character on Noel Edmonds' Saturday night variety television show ''Noel's House Party'', portrayed by Barry Killerby, and was the brainchild of British comedy writer Charlie Adams, a writer for the show. A bulbous pink figure covered with yellow spots, he sported a permanent toothy grin and jiggling eyes. Mr Blobby communicated only by saying the word "blobby" in an electronically altered voice, expressing his moods through tone of voice and repetition. Although popular, the character was not well received critically. == Origins == Mr Blobby first appeared in the 'Gotcha' segment of the second series of ''Noel's House Party'', in which celebrities were caught out in a Candid Camera style prank. Mr Blobby was presented to the celebrities as if he were a real and established children's television character, in order to record an episode centred around the guests' profession. In truth, there was no "Mr. Blobby" TV series, and he was created purely for the prank. Mr Blobby would clumsily take part in the activity, knocking over the set, causing mayhem, and saying "blobby blobby blobby." His childish and unprofessional behaviour was calculated to irritate the celebrities taking part. When the prank was finally revealed the Blobby costume would be opened, revealing Noel Edmonds inside. Once the first 'Gotcha' segments had aired, Mr Blobby was no longer usable as part of the 'Gotcha' sequences. He continued to make appearances on ''Noel's House Party'' with various members of the production team donning the costume created by artist Joshua Snow. Through ''Noel's House Party'', Mr Blobby was seen in short comedy sketches, 'guest-appearing' on other TV programmes. Examples include ''Lovejoy'', where he unintentionally broke antique furniture, and ''Keeping Up Appearances'', where he was seen making an impromptu visit on Hyacinth and Richard Bucket, disrupting their kitchen. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mr Blobby」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
