by human standards (mom and dad dressed like Amazons, and Dorno sported a nifty blond page-boy haircut),
found themselves constantly defending their world from alien invaders in adventures that always required the
talents of a quintet of animals. There was Tundro, a 10-legged, winged rhinoceros ridden by
Dorno; Igoo, a King
Kong—like gorilla made of petrified rock; Zok, a flying mechanical dragon; and Gloop and
Gleep, two shapeless
ectoplasmic ghosts who mumbled a lot. They successfully fought for their home each week against such bizarre
attackers as the Faceless People, the Beaked People, and the Mutoids. Segments of the show appeared in repeats on The
Harlem Globetrotters in 1978. A new version, featuring the same voices except for Ted Eccles, was a segment on Space

that the pre-school fab four have managed, there is no massive range of
Hooley Dooley’s merchandise nor are their individual names on the tip of
every toddler tongue but their brand of educational songs and skits are
easily the equal of The Wiggles. Like The Wiggles The Hooley’s (David
Butts, Antoine Dearest and Bruce Thorburn) are also assisted by furry
friends, The HD’s have the strange Tickle the Doodat and Russell the
Kangeroo. There are 35 songs on this collection ranging from their theme
tune We Are The Hooley Dooleys (this is the one seen at the start of
almost all ABC Kids DVD’s and Videos) to Splashing in Puddles to
Jumping
Castle
. The sets are on the minimal side but the emphasis is firmly on fun.
