All my earliest sexual fantasies (if a 5 year old can be said to have sexual fantasies!) centred on Randy Dandy. I remember his bum in a white sailor suit of some kind. My dad called my little sister Whopper J Fibbly for years - after the character who 'fibs his fib'. I think this meant that his balloon nose blew up with each lie he told. I can still sing the song ... sort of. Wish I could see an episode. C'mon CHCH TV - cough 'em up!

Hi
I was the toy supplier for the Randy Dandy show back in Halifax. The show was hot at the time and we supplied stores like Zeller's with items that were used on the tv show like Swords, Caps, Sweaters, lunch pails etc. The volume was tremendous the profit was eaten up in royalties but it was fun time. I think I enjoyed the appearances where sometimes I drove the convertible etc. What fun. Is Randy Still with us. Is anyone around who remembers the time.
