An otherwise uneventful day yesterday

Eddie Mair | 12:38 UK time, Friday, 26 January 2007

was enlivened by CBeebies' Sarah-Jane appearing outside our window dressed as a baby with an exceptionally large nappy. Chris Jarvis is seen on the right.

    Oh my word! Just wait til Jonnie sees this ....

    Is this something Beeb employees are forced to do at some time or another?

    Oh, dear. And there was I thinking of Eddie in his kilt. This is something far more shocking!

    I think I need a lie down.

    Is this the so-called 'Baby Doll' look?

    Si.

    Is she up for adoption?

    Mwahahaha! So my De-Age-ifying Ray has struck its first target!

    I now serve warning on you Eddie, if the ±«Óãtv does not hand over one million Blue Peter Badges before 5pm, I will De-Age-ify the entire ±«Óãtv!

    Imagine the chaos:

    John Humphries pulling Sarah Montague's pig-tails!
    (Or vice versa for all I know.)

    Baby Toksvig presenting the Poos Quiz!

    Moneybox will become Piggy Bank!

    Terry Wogan with sideburns again!

    Think on...

    Many thanks Eric for the newsletter. It arrived safely.

    I'm not sure how you're going to interview Stan Laurel. I'll listen this afternnon with interest. According to my records Stan passed away in 1965. He even wrote his own epitaph; "If anyone at my funeral has a long face, I'll never speak to him again."

    Sarah Jane as a baby. That was a great one.

    That is hardly fair. The chap is no giant - Sarah-Jane is renowned for her petiteness.

    (My third attempt at getting a comment to pass moderation muster on this thread!!)

    No, it's not a giant dummy. Chris Jarvis just looks that size due to the foreshortening effect of the . . .

    (Well somebody had to say it.)

    Vyle (7), just who are you suggesting... no, I won't get suckered.

    I'm a bit sceptical about the royal credentials of the newspaper buggers Eric mentions in the newsletter (yes, I got it!)

    Am becoming a little paranoid - have posted two comments today already, none of which have appeared!

    Oh well, 3rd time lucky!

    Will look out for Sarah-Jane in her baby outfit on cbeebies. Must say my son (but more so my SO!) was disappointed Sarah-Jane was not in the cbeebies show at Wembley last month. She was replaced by an equally bouncy smiley one though.

    I share your SO's pain. And I regret your final sentence is patently impossible.

    If you save the picture and then open it with the Windoze Picture Manager, you can adjust the brightness and contrast. When you have done this, the large dummy that Sarah-Jane has hanging around her neck becomes more visible. If Auntie had adjusted the picture before posting it, nobody would have confused the pendant with the person hanging around on our right.

    Oh I so wasn't thinking like a boy when I posted my no.2 above (if you pardon the expression) -- I saw a nappy and thought of poo... the boys clearly saw the lady in the nappy...
