The Wombles of Wimbledon were a series of long nosed bear-crossed-with-a-possom type creatures that inhabited, you guessed it, Wimbleton. They had their own show on the BBC for several years, and virtually anybody between 25 and 40 in the UK can sing their theme song. Great Uncle Bulgaria was the head of the crazed clan, with others with similar names and personalities like Orinoco (the slob womble, my personal favorite). The show, like all things retro in the UK and elsewhere, is making a comeback, as the beeb markets the hell out of it.
