I'm interested in the addition of "some may say" here. Is there any dispute that this is a spin-off from the Fimbles?

Roly-Mo and the "when you take a look inside a book" song originated in the Fimbles. Other characters from the Fimbles make cameo appearances in the Roly-Mo Show (e.g. Rocket the frog). The puzzle games in the Roly-Mo Show often feature Fimbles.

I'm not bothered. I'm fairly new to Wikipedia, so am interested in people's reasons for making certain edits.

[edit] Clarifications

I have just removed the following from the page:

• "Little Bo is pink and obviously named after Little Bo Peep" (this is an assumption, with no evidence to back it up)
• about Rockitt: "but unlike the other characters appears as himself (i.e. a puppet)". All the characters appear as themselves, so the statement is superfluous.

I think the article is better with your changes, but I think I can explain the meaning of "but unlike the other characters appears as himself (i.e. a puppet)". The Fimbles appear in the Roly Mo show as cartoon characters in puzzle games; Rocket, on the other hand, appears in the Roly Mo show "as himself (i.e. a puppet)" in the main part of the show. --JimmyTheWig 14:14, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
