"Hammy Hamster" is the name of the central character; it has never been the name of the series that he starred in. Bearcat 06:20, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Canadian?
Canadians, myself included, think of this as a Canadian show. However, the article strongly indicates it is more British than Canadian.
Perhaps I didn't read it closely enough, but does the article indicate how the Canadian version came about? The CBC dubbed the BBC production? And which variety then got exported everywhere?

[edit] Water rat
What species was the rat? Was this a rat, or a water vole (commonly termed the water rat)? Wind in the Willows has a vole water rat, but as I remember the riverbank, the actor was a land rat. Andy Dingley (talk) 09:53, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
[edit] Canadian production 2
But as far as I knew growing up this was a Canadian...or possibly American show (too low tec to really be American I'm guessing). In the early 80's it showed every morning before school, probably on global in Toronto. There was most likely a Canadian production, after it went well in the U.K. There were no UK accent in the voices or narration, as far as I can remember. They possibly could of taken the old episodes and dubbed them with a Canadian/Americanġ voice. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.165.153.200 (talk) 04:06, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
