Am I the only one who immediately thought of this upon seeing the word Jimbo?

Haven't a clue but then it is quite clear I know little of children's shows, what was the concept of this? It looks good.

It wasn't Fergie's idea, was it? Did she just do Budgie The Helicopter, and it was plainly (lol see what I did there) a rip off of poor ol' Jimbo? (i actually cannot be arsed to google this to find out.)

I can remember the theme tune, all these years later! (and won't be looking for it on Youtube to further imprint it into my poor brain).

I'd expect nothing less.

You should watch it and relive your childhood, then report back.
