The Raggy Dolls

The Raggy Dolls was a 1980s British cartoon series for children, following the adventures of a motley collection of rejects from a toy factory.

The series was created by Melyn Jacobson[?], and produced for Yorkshire Television[?] from 1987 to 1989. The episodes were written and voiced by Neil Innes, who also wrote the theme song.

The original seven characters were Back-To-Front, Claude, Dotty, Hi-Fi, Lucy, Princess, and Sad Sack. After the first 13 episodes, Orchid Productions[?], headed by Mark Mason[?], gave the show a new look, and made 65 further episodes and introduced an eighth character, Raggamuffin.
