Where's Mr Grumpy?
Mr. Topsy-Turvey
Mr. Happy
Mr. Nosey
Mr. Tickle
Mr. Messy
Mr. Bump
Mr. Uppity
Mr. Greedy
Mr. Strong
None of the above
Philomena Cunk and Professor Gregory Dart agreed on Mr. Tickle, I've always had a soft spot for Mr. Greedy.
This is strictly about the original 1970s Roger Hargreaves characters, no 'Little Miss' or Adam Hargreaves creations please.
The poll only permits ten options so add your favourite if he is not already up there.

A clear lead for slightly creepy Mr. Tickle, who would surely be arrested for such behavior these days.
Tickle, of course.
Hamilton Richardson's reviews are worth a browse too:
...what a glorious anomaly we find in Mr Tickle - a breath of fresh air from the unrestrained id. The all-consuming sensual delight he offers relentlessly disrupts the social order. There is something almost Bakhtinian about the manner in which he tickles a dour schoolmaster until he loses control in front of his class [...]
We note that Mr Tickle himself is no slave to sensory delight - quite the opposite; he is a model of psychical equilibrium. At the end of his day's escapades he relaxes in an armchair, sated and quiescent
A surge of support for Mr. Bump who sadly doesn't benefit from one of Hamilton Richardson's insightful reviews. I'll put the swing from Mr. Tickle in his favour down to the sympathy vote and him keeping his hands to himself.
I’ve always felt sorry for Mr Jelly.
We could have more fun attributing TZ members to Mr Men characters, Mr Uppity anyone?
Cheers..
Jase
I really though Mr Uppity would appeal to the demographic on here.
Hes a funny old cove aswell.
