The Odd Squad are quite possibly the filthiest,
muckiest, rudest characters
ever to have graced a greetings card range. For the
Odds, life revolves around
bodily functions, toilet humour and a healthy
dollop of sex. They're rude, crude
and yucky to know, and show no shame as they
take us on a guide to farting,
show us the after-effects of booze and sex,
or present us with the many and
varied types of poo.
Jeff, Maude, Lily, Alf, Billy, Dug and their dog
were created by Alan Plenderleith
in 1994. What started as a simple series of greetings
cards designs snowballed
in to a ludicrously popular licensing dream.
They became the number one selling
greetings card range in the UK, and over
the last decade have shifted more than
10 million cards, and around 150,000 calendars. Odd
Squad mugs and apparellel
have appeared too, and Ravette Books continue to
publish several cartoon
compilations and an ongoing series of Odd Squad 'Little
Books' .
Alan Plenderleith is a busy chap, and in 2000
he brought us a one-off animated
pilot for Chat,
the Celebrity Cat produced by Bermuda Shorts as part of
Channel 4's Animation Week. He has written episodes
for the second series
of The Lampies
as well as Create TV's Little
Robots. Collingwood O'Hare are
currently bringing Alan's garden star, Gordon
Gnome to our screens...
