It depends, which one asked the question?

[Madmonks]

The question was " Which one said this?"
The statement then follows "Flobble lobble lobba lub.

Bill the Flower Pot Man..........or was it Ben?

If Flobble lobble lobba lub had been a question it would have been : Flobble lobble lobba lub?
Anyone who is fluent in Flobble lob would know that!

[brionon]

This is one for Loobie Loo ,I think ?

[fredpuli47]

Both ,of course. This programme was supposed to be good for children. Not so: in every episode the young viewers were asked to say whether it was Bill or Ben who had done some act of mischief (Was it Bill or was it Ben?). This was highly damaging for the future life of the infants.If they tried snitching or grassing on someone like that when they got to school they might not live long! :)

as a matter of fact the language is called Oddle-Poddle , flobbadob translated from oddle-poddle means flowerpot .


The Flowerpot Men were created by Hilda Brabben, who named the duo after
her two young brothers, William and Benjamin. Weed was based upon her
youngest sister Phyllis. The characters were voiced by Peter Hawkins, and
for years, rumours have persisted in the press and media regarding the birth
of Bill and Ben's "flobbadob" language. Supposedly the term was actually
based on the exclamations conjured forth by Hilda's brothers when ever they
broke wind in the bath. But alas, this simply isn't true. Here's Peter's son
Silas Hawkins, to correct us all:

"The word 'flobbadob' is the word 'flowerpot' translated into
'Oddle-poddle' the language my father invented for Bill and
Ben, the Flowerpot Men. For each episode of the show he
would be given a script in English which he would then
translate into Oddle-Poddle.
