Noddy

Noddy Goes to Toyland (1x1)

Air date: Mar 24, 1975

In the very first episode - "Noddy Goes to Toyland" - Noddy doesn't actually have a name, or indeed, that blue hat with a bell on the end. He is encountered en route to Toytown - or more precisely - struck by Big Ears the Brownie on his bicycle after he encounters him in the middle of the Toytown road. The lad has run away from his Toymaker.
