Yacht-to-Dot. With 85 minutes, we'll demo show. For everyone who's simply dotting about Alexa. Hey, I'm here.
Today we are looking at a skill that we covered ages ago, hundreds of episodes ago, but it was mentioned in a recent email newsletter from Amazon, and it's cute and it's been updated, so why not? Oh, by the way, before I forget, in case anyone is thinking he hasn't mentioned about free audiobooks from Audible recently, I have been trying every single day since the 1st of March, and it hasn't been updated. It's still February's three titles. They are way overdue.
Far, far, far overdue to change them. So yeah, I will keep checking and let you know when they change, because three different titles to listen to, you know, what's not to like. There'll be something in there, hopefully, for each and every one of us. Okay, we're now going to look at Clangers Talk.
Alexa, open Clangers Talk. If you don't know about Clangers, guys, it's a UK institution. Welcome to the Clangers. How old do you think Tiny is?
Perhaps you could ask her now. Tiny, how old are you? Tiny says she's seven and a half years old. Would you like to find out more about Tiny?
Maybe ask what she likes to do, what her favourite sport is, or who she is friends with. What do you think? What's your favourite sport? She says she loves to play cotton ball with small.
The other youngster on the little blue planet is the baby soup dragon. Why don't you ask if you can meet him? Can we meet the soup dragon? Tiny has called for the soup dragon to come and say hello.
The soup dragon can hear baby soup dragon calling her, probably for some soup. She has to leave now, but you can keep on talking to Tiny. Sup? There you go, guys.
Probably most of you have no idea what just happened. It's a children's programme from, I don't know, the early 80s, maybe even the 70s, and the Clangers are knitted pigs, basically, with kind of dustbin lid armour front and back, maybe? Or I might have just made that up. Pink knitted pigs and the soup dragon is kind of made out of bits and bobs of metal, I think.
Can't remember. And they live on a little blue planet in holes in the ground, again, with dustbin lids covering them up. Or at least that's how I remember them. And that's how they talk with sunny whistles.
So yeah, there you go, guys. And by the way, you get a completely different activity or person to talk to each time you open it. Cool. There you go, guys.
And if you want to tell your friends about Doctor Dot or indeed the Echo Show, please do. And if you haven't checked out the Echo Show yet, it's really good. Really, really good. I think so, anyway.
With the amazing Sean Preece. But again, guys, thanks a lot. And we'll speak again tomorrow. Hello, I'm Sean.
