Well, I heard Mark Radcliffe on his show the other night saying that
apparently all this obscenity rubbish is made up (Roger the Cabin Boy,
etc). But I wouldn't trust those louts as far as I could throw them.

Following a discussion in work today about fantasic cartoons of yesteryear,
can anyone shed any light on the suggestion that Captain Pugwash was banned
from the BBC because of the innuendo in the crews names. Master Bates,
Seaman Staines etc?
Is it true?? Were there any other crew members with 'interesting' names?
Thanks...

The whole thing is an urban legend (see alt.folklore.urban faq perhaps?)
It's even been printed in the national press (Gaurdian I recall), but
it's all made up!

Ohhhh NOOOOOO! Not this one again.
This topic crops up again and again and again, so forgive the yawns
here.
To answer your question seriously - No, there were no obscene
names, it is just an urban myth. For example, Master Bates was in
fact Master Mate (perfectly innocent I am sure you would agree).
The trouble with innuendo in that it can make the telephone
directory seem smutty :-)

Didn't Ian Collier do a FAQ on this a couple of years back. I remember
someone posting the sound file of Pugwash saying "I certainly do, Master
Bate".
But that was a one-off. The other names were made up by Victor
Lewis-Smith, and the Guardian got sued by the BBC for printing them as fact.

No, that was Monkey!
The Adventure was a great series (originally) where three celebrities
would solve puzzles in order to complete their way through to the end to
leave. This transformed over its series into something that attempted to
be an ongoing plot (and Leslie Judd spent a series being a defector
IIRC).
The most memorable icons from this series were the drogma (whose
currency I worked out before they explained it!), "Uncle" (the
aspedystra) and the Vortex at the end.

To quote the AFU FAQ:
F.*The UK cartoon series "Cpt. Pugwash" had character names w/double
entendres.
T. _The Guardian_ wrote this up in September 1991. They were
successfuly
sued and issued an apology/retraction in November 1991.
T. Ian Palmer posted a .wav file he says is from an episode called "Fair
Exchange" supposedly available on a BBC Video called "Captain
Pugwash,
Seafairing Tales" where the Cpt. is supposed to have said "I
certainly
did Master Bate." Interestingly, this differs from the traditional
UL
where the name is often referred to as "Master Bates."
T. Many people claim to have seen and heard these too. What a
coincidence!
where
T = 100% scientific truth
and
F = 100% falsehood

_The Sunday Correspondent_ apparently also printed this story c.1990
(mentioning Master Bates and Seaman Stains). Geoff Tibballs' book _The
Golden Age of Children's Televsion_ re-printed this story, and the
publishers were forced to stick a great big disclaimer over the
offending page, apologising to John Ryan, the creator of the programme.

Master Mate says 'You got a fair exchange there Captain' and Pugwash
replies 'I certainly did Master Mate' - Pugwash's nasal tones do make
the 'M' sound a bit like a 'B', especially as it is said fairly quickly.
I have just watched the episode so this is not from distant memory.
Your notes, Chris, are quite correct.

That was the programmes 'late' period, when it was in the childrens'

The Golden Age of TAG was when it first started, & was on on Saturday

Master Bate, or Master Mate?
Hmm...
Well I've got the vidoe too, and I did wonder which it was....
So I listened to it loads of times, but I didn't really reach much of a
conclusion, except it was a bit more like Mate than Bate.
Nice to see the Grauniad has always been inaccurate! ; )

"Roger The Cabin Boy" and "Seaman Staines" are certainly made up. "Master
Bates" seems to be pronounced as such, on occasions, but this is more likely
to be an accidental result of Peter Hawkins doing his funny voices than
anything deliberate. There is a .WAV of such a mis-pronounciation on the
net somewhere.

I have seen two episodes where the mis-naming appears to occur, including
the one named above (not just the sound file). However, I think it's
just a side-effect of Peter Hawkins funny voices, not a deliberate thing.

Indeed, the complete crew was:
Captain Pugwash,
Master Mate,
Seaman Barnabas,
Seaman Willy,
Tom, the cabin boy
Unfortunately, the names of Black Jake's crew escape me for the moment. No
doubt the excise men can tell you... ;-)

An urban myth indeed, there was a Master Mates but Seaman Staines and Roger
the Cabin Boy are never referred to in any episode. There was one edition
though where Master Mates if called "Bates", but probably just a slip of the
tongue... Er, hell..

Until less than a month ago it was still there although you had to use the
numeric address because the hostname had become unmapped for some reason.
Unfortunately I can't find it any more because they have rearranged all
the IP numbers and the particular one that I used (138.40.73.102) now
appears to be dead. (It's odd because eeisun*.city.ac.uk exists for

Another one not paying attention!
There was Master Mate but nowhere, at no time, is there
reference to a plural. The one episode where someone
'thinks' they may have heard something different is just
lousy listening.
