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.

The Teletubbies are the title characters of the TV show of the same name. They are four characters who live in the grassy lovely place known as Teletubbyland. The Teletubbies love to play in Teletubbyland. They live in a dome well known as the Tubbytronic Superdome. Their trademarks include their speech, their magical antennas and tummies that can glow, and show videos on their screens, honking noises that they make when they sit or fall, known as parping noises, their playful attitudes, and their constant giggling that is heard everywhere they go. The Teletubbies include the following:
•Tinky Winky, the biggest Teletubby, is bluish-purple, clumsy and gentle
•Dipsy, the second-biggest Teletubby, is green, stubborn, and stylish
•Laa-Laa, the second-smallest Teletubby, is yellow, sweet, and bubbly
•Po, the smallest Teletubby, is red, timid, shy, and soft-spoken
•The Tiddlytubbies are cute babies.

June 2014: In England, the BBC announced it had ordered 60 episodes of a new series of Teletubbies to be aired, with Wildbrain (known as DHX Media at the time), which recently acquired Ragdoll Productions, producing the series. This marks the first new episodes of the series since 2001 and the first to be aired on CBeebies after reruns of the original series were broadcast on the channel. However, the new series will be filmed on replica model sets instead of Wimpstone Farm in Warwickshire (the original setting for Teletubbyland) since a pond now exists where the Tubbytronic Superdome had been because Rosemary Harding, the owner of the farm, was fed up of fans of the show trespassing on her land.

Teletubbies turns 25 this year, and now has a new Netflix reboot on the way. What made this colourful and strange world so appealing to children – and so controversial, asks Timmy Fisher.
The Teletubbies, portrayed by costumed actors, are soft round humanoids of toddlerlike proportions, with simple smiling faces, uniquely shaped aerial antennas on their heads, tummy-mounted silver television screens, and age-appropriate waddles.
