Teletubbies is a British children's television series created by Anne Wood and Andrew Davenport for the BBC. The programme focuses on four differently coloured characters known as the Teletubbies, named after the television screens on their bellies.
- Tinky Winky. Tinky Winky is purple, the biggest Teletubby and almost always goes first! He is gentle, soft and a dreamer. He can be a little indecisive but is also very thoughtful.
- Dipsy. Dipsy is green, fun, loves dancing and bouncing on his bottom! He is funky and groovy, always doing dance moves with his arms. His signature move is an excited wiggle dance and he sometimes ends this by plonking himself onto his bottom.
- Laa-Laa. Laa-Laa is yellow, a performer and she loves to sing and dance! She is a bundle of good, fun energy. Her signature move is a light-footed twirl. Laa-Laa’s favorite thing is her orange ball – she loves bouncing, patting and boinging it.
- Po. Po is red, cute and little! Her signature moves are a karate-style hand pose and a star jump. Her favorite thing is going super fast on the scooter! When Po stands, she has her arms behind her back and sticks her tummy out.
