Balamory is about children in the nursery with Mrs Hoolie learning about everyday life and helping each other along the way. There are also other characters that like to help out when somebody gets into a pickle.
Welcome to the guide for Balamory . Please ensure that you have read the TV.com Guidelines and the guidelines below prior to submitting information to the guide. If you need any clarification on the guidelines, please PM me and I will be happy to help. Guidelines Copy/Paste … More Sources Submission Comments Acceptance/Rejection PMs Spelling/Grammar Nielson Ratings Links Episode Submission Guidelines Trivia Notes Allusions Quotes Cast/Crew Copy/Paste Copy & Pasting of information from another site is disallowed on TV.com. I do a Google search on all submissions sent to me to ensure that they have not been copied from another website, so please don't try this - I will catch the copy/pasting! (Back) Sources Please always provide a source for your information - this will help me to verify that your submission is legitimate and can help speed up the moderation process. If you gained your information from another website, please copy the exact URL for the page on the site that you gained the information from - try not to just give me the main website page as I may not be able to find the information on the site & this may result in rejection of your submission. If your source is "I watched the episode" this is fine, but please try to make a note of where in the episode the information was - a time stamp is always good, even if it's just to give me a rough idea of which part of the episode I need to check to confirm your submission. If your source is a book or a magazine, you could consider including a scanned version of the page in your submission comments - this is not required, but could help your submission to be dealt with faster. (Back) Submission Comments Please always include a comment. Comments are there for two reasons - they help me to see what changes you are making and they help you to see the same when you check the submissions tab in your profile. An ideal submission comment will tell me as specifically as possible what you are changing (i.e. if you are removing an incorrect guest star and adding two missing stars, please name them and tell me what you're doing with them!) and will also include a source. (Back) Acceptance/Rejection PMs Please always try to read both the acceptance & rejection PMs that you receive from me. I will often make suggestions in the acceptance PMs for future submissions and will always explain a rejection, with suggestions on how the submission could be improved, wherever possible. (Back) Spelling/Grammar Checking Please check your spelling and grammar before hitting the submit button. Errors can be easily missed while you're concentrating on typing out a submission, but can be easily caught with a quick check before pressing the submit button. I will correct minor spelling and grammar errors where possible, but if your spelling and grammar is so bad that I can't understand your submission, I will be forced to reject! (Back) Nielson Ratings Please do not submit Nielson Ratings. These are copyrighted and are not allowed in the TV.com guides. (Back) Links Please do not link to sites outside of the CNET arena in your submissions. As a general rule, I don't add links to other Cnet guides within submissions, but if you do wish to add a link while submitting information I will not reject. Do not edit an existing submission to add a link to another guide - I will reject this type of submission. (Back) Episode Submission Guidelines In order to submit a new episode to the guide, you must have 2 out of 3 of the following criteria: Title Air date Summary. This means you can submit an episode with: Title & Summary but no airdate. Title plus Airdate but no summary (if you do this please leave the summary box completely blank). Title, Summary and Airdate. You will be unable to submit an episode without a title. Please provide a source for episode additions - if you watched the episode and are using your knowledge from the viewing rather than using an internet source, please note this and note when and where you watched the episode. (Back) Trivia From the TV.com guidelines: "Trivia is any small detail or goof that may not be known to people who view an episode. Trivia deals with on screen information. A car license plate is trivia. A goof is also trivia. Anything that happens off screen is not trivia." (Back) Notes From the TV.com guidelines: "Notes deal with off screen details. Details relating to show production should be included in the notes section." Music included in an episode can be added to the notes section. Please only make one submission with all of the episode's music - don't make 5 notes for 5 songs, I will reject these with a request that you edit the first note to add the additional music. If a main actor does not appear in an episode, please remove them from the cast listing for the episode rather than adding a note saying "Actor X did not appear in this episode". If an actor is credited by another name in the episode, please do not submit this as a note - this can be added as an alias to the biography section of the actor's guide. (Back) Allusions From the TV.com guidelines: "An allusion is an indirect reference to another form of media - a show, movie, book, piece of music etc. If the media is directly referred to, for example the star of a show names another show, this is not an allusion. Please include as much information as possible when submitting allusions to the show." When you submit an allusion, please include either the quote from the episode or a header of some form in bold followed by a short explanation of the allusion, for example: Person X : Hey, you look just like Captain Kirk! Captain Kirk was a character in the Sci-Fi show, Star Trek . (Back) Quotes When submitting a quote, the character name should be in bold. The colon following the character name should not be in bold. Any actions in the quote should be in italics. A quote is submitted as follows: Character Name 1 : Quote line one. (action here) Character Name 2 : Quote line two. This gives you the following: Character Name 1 : Quote line one. (action here) Character Name 2 : Quote line two. (Back) Cast/Crew Please submit all cast members in one submission. Likewise, please submit all crew members in one submission. Submissions which add guest stars/cast to an episode one person at a time come under the heading of gaming and will not be accepted. If you spot a person listed for an episode incorrectly, please remove them from cast. Please do not submit a note indicating that "Person X did not appear in this episode" - this information will be gained from checking the cast list. If you are making a submission to remove a cast/crew member from an episode, please provide a source. When submitting guests to a talk show, please input the guest star's role as Himself or Herself (with capital letters at the start of the word). (Back)
:lol: Imagine it, Miss Hoolie in charge of a class of teenage mums-to-be & hoodies who make life hell for the likes of bus driver Edie & shop assistants Penny & Susie. PC Plum would definitely be kept on his toes.
Miss. Hooly was on Red Dwarf, wasn't she?
"Balamory" has been around on the BBC for only a couple of years now, but is now a cult children's classic with it's ubiquitous catchphrase, "What's the story in Balamory?". hide show
After nearly four series, it looks set to be axed now, which is a pity as it's a colourfully friendly blend of music, frolics and fun.
Made for the under-fives, the series is set in the fictional seaside town of "Balamory" (actually Tobermory, Scotland). The show is narrated by nursery teacher Miss Hoolie (Julie Wilson Nimmo), and features colourful and diverse characters such as Archie the Inventor, Edie McRedie the bus driver, PC Plum, Josie Jump, etc. The cast of characters cast a broad net with black, English, Scottish and disabled all included. Appropriately, attention is never actually drawn to these things so the subconscious message to the children is that it is really all right. I don't think this approach is any way too PC - in a still sometimes prejudicial and ignorant society, it's essential.
The music incorporates different styles of performing that vary from the grating and annoying, to some rather brilliant, contemporary sounds.
What the hell?????????? hide show
OK,now seriously we all ready had crap like Bob the Builder and Teletubbies on our screens but in 2002 a new show came which was called Balamory god the theme song is awful and it gets my nerves What's the story of Balamory? Would'nt ya like to know? Ugh those words get on my nerves this show get on my nerves there is some 10 year olds who love this show and even if i was 10 i'd hate this show completely annoying and overrated i'm glad this show is cancelled and will never make it onto our screens again but there is some shows that still are on our screens which we need to get rid of i'd give it a 0 if the stupid rating thing would let me.
Because it was my day off. hide show
The shows title refers to a ficticious Scottish island inhabited by a spectrum of folk who seem to make big dramas out of minor crisises. Nursery teacher Miss Hoolie, she with the tartrazine eye make-up & dodgy hairdo, greets the viewers & leads us to the events of each episode. The aptly named PC Plum is the comicly camp cop who makes you wonder how he made it through police training, while fitness guru Josie Jump looks like she's on something & inventor Archie looks like someone who should be on a national register. The chanting theme tune, What's the story in Balamory, like the show itself is far more addictive than any mood enhancing substances.
He is in prison for breaking the AVO and that just by trying to call her. She is upset about it and want to help him. hide show
He is in prison for breaking the AVO and that just by trying to call her. She is upset about it and want to help him. It is just so unfair on him all this and he asks her if they can use her money shes going to spend on buying Alexes part of the gym to buy him out. He tells her that she will get her money back because he knows Kane is going to win the court case and it is important to him that his friends have trust in him. She is not sure if getting him out of prison is the right thing, but she agree with him and gives him the money to get him home.
Balamory is a small island off the coast of Scotland. Each day Miss Hoolie tells you what the story is in Balamory that day. It then follows the main character of the story trying to work out the problem. hide show
Amazing! Fan Dabi Dozi!!!! Why have the BBC axed this. It is probably the only show (except Monarch of The Glen, River City and Still Game) to be set in Scotland this Millenium. How funny are all these characters :
Archie - A crazy dedicated Scot who likes to invent things and always wears a kilt.
Penny - A Newcastlian(??) who works with Suzie in the shop.
Suzie - An old woman who works in the shop with Penny
PC Plum - A policeman who is slightly gay and mugs Suzie Sweet in his old song.
Josie Jump - A woman with 2 personalities!!!!
Why wouldn't you want to watch this.
