A bear from Darkest Peru



This was originally a review of a Paddington toy bear sold by Amazon. He had a red hat, blue coat and yellow boots.

Ha ha. Good old Paddington. This is apparently how Paddington is supposed to look like.

I remember him differently: with a big black hat, no boots and a brown suitcase. In other words, I watched the BBC series "Paddington" as a kid. I didn't like it. I'm not sure why not. I think Paddington was too grumpy and completely obsessed with marmalade. I probably didn't like marmalade as a kid. Also, he sounded silly when he talked! Finally, the series was very strangely animated.

Years ago, one could still purchase the BBC version of Paddington. It seems he is no longer available, so if you are a Paddington fan, you will have to buy this more colourful version instead. But then, it does seem to be the original.

And remember: this is supposed to be a bear from...Darkest Peru.
