Noddy (TV series) Noddy (TV series) Noddy, also known as The Noddy Shop or Noddy in Toyland (in the United Kingdom and Australia), is a Canadian-American children's television series based on Enid Blyton's children's book series of the same name with stop motion sequences from "Noddy's Toyland Adventures" that aired from August 31, 1998 to February 16, 2000 on PBS in the United States. Following its cancellation, reruns were aired until September 5th, 2004. The series was produced by BBC Worldwide, Catalyst Entertainment and Enid Blyton Ltd. The show starred Sean McCann as Noah Tomten, a former old salt, who now runs an
Noddy (character) trip, as an apology. Noddy has many run-ins with Mr. Plod the local policeman. Some are caused by Noddy's lack of understanding of how Toyland works. Other times it is because of a case of mistaken identity. Mr. Plod is generally long-suffering towards Noddy and Noddy likes Mr. Plod and frequently goes out of his way to help him. Mr. Plod often catches the mischief makers on his police bicycle, by blowing his whistle and shouting "Halt, in the name of Plod!!" before locking the culprits up in his jail. Early Noddy books have become collectibles, along with other Blytons.
