Among the shows I watched growing up, Postman Pat, along with Thomas the Tank Engine, Sooty and Co, Fireman Sam and Inspector Gadget, is a show I truly hold dear, and always will, no matter how old I am.Postman Pat showcases the simple plot of a friendly and good-natured postman going round the beautiful village of Greendale, delivering letters and parcels to and fro, as well as helping out his friends during certain events that occur, like, for example, stopping an out-of-control robot postman from causing havoc (from the episode Postman Pat and the Robot, one of my favourites), or trying to stop a wild animal doing the same thing (from the episode Postman Pat and the Beast of Greendale).The early series of Postman Pat, i.e: 1 and 2, are considered by some to be the most desirable, and I agree. Although later series after that aren't too bad either, as I watched those as well when I was a kid. This review has been made in honour of Ken Barrie, the original voice of the world's most beloved postman, who sadly passed away last year (2016). R.I.P Ken. You did a great job, being the voice of our favourite postman, as well as other characters. You made my childhood and others too, and will never be forgotten.

Along with Fireman Sam, Rosie and Jim and Pingu, this was a show I used to watch a lot when I was little. How I miss it. The look of the show is great, the theme song is enough to make you sing along, the characters are really endearing(I remember loving Jess, the adorable black and white cat most of all) and the story lines are simple and fun. Add some nice writing, thoughtful narration and the show's nostalgic value for me and you have a simply great show. It wasn't predictable at all, the length was just right as was the pacing and it was just great show really. Nothing else really to say other than a well deserved 9/10 Bethany Cox

I really am not so sure about this show. When I was a little girl, I begged my mum to put on the tapes for me, so I could watch Postman Pat and his black-and-white cat go on all their amazing adventures.Now I'm not so sure.I gave this show a 6 out of 10 because, even though the new series is far from perfect, it has its moments. Like baby Niquille (please pardon my spelling). And something about Mira and the Doncaster soccer team. I wasn't too keen on the Greendale Rocket and Clown episodes, they were okay, but I much prefer the old series. Don't get me wrong, both are carefully crafted in a manner that only the British can achieve, but the old series had that archaic mid-20th-century England sort of feel, which was peculiar in a time like the 1980s. The new series is, in one word, alright. But Postman Pat is still an old favorite of mine, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

When I was a kid this was just one of greatest show I ever knew. Not exactly a huge story, but a huge star. A postman named Pat who drives a red post van filled with letters and parcels with his cat Jess. Ken Barrie as Narrator and voices was just perfect. Postman Pat was the same makers of Fireman Sam. Pat is a nice friendly postman with many friends in the town of Greendale, the only ones I can actually remember are Mrs Goggins in the Post Office and Ted the mechanic. Pat was a nice guy and black and white Jess was cute. One of my favourite episodes was Pat's birthday, which just showed how much of a difference Pat made to the town of Greendale. Your kids will love it, the Royal Mail probably loves it too! It was number 23 on The 100 Greatest Kids' TV Shows. Very good!
