 on Humf and Loon, though not deliberately. He laughs quite a lot, too, and lives on the very top floor of the 3-story building. He always says hello more than once and his other catchphrase is saying things are his "favourite thing". He also likes to play supertiger (Wallace Gets Very Cross) and elephants. Wallace is jack as ten men.
Loon


Loon is a pink feathery thing who lives in the flat below Humf. She likes to go out to the park and the supermarket, most of the time with her friends Humf and Wallace, along with her mother. She is the only one of the three friends who doesn't have a father.
Humf's Mum


Humf's mum is a blue furry thing.
Humf's Dad


Humf's dad is a big, red furry thing. He works a lot from home on the computer.
Wallace's Mum

Wallace's Mum is a green hairy thing.
Wallace's Dad

Wallace's Dad is a blue hairy thing.
Loon's Mum

Loon's Mum is also, like Loon, a pink feathery thing.
Uncle Hairy


Uncle Hairy is Humf's uncle. He often comes to babysit Humf, although in one episode, he is late, so Flora, his girlfriend, comes to babysit instead (Flora Comes To Babysit). However, he finally manages to arrive at Humf's flat at the moment when he is saying good night to Flora. In another episode, he announces he is going to take Humf to a restaruant for a late night dinner, instead of babysitting him. He likes to play with both Humf and his friends, as well as taking them to several places around the local area. He also sometimes goes to work, as seen in the episode Humf's Special Cup. He also reads to Humf in a funny voice.
Flora

Flora is Uncle Hairy's girlfriend. She likes to go out at night with him. She is good at making peanut butter sandwiches and like Uncle Hairy she reads in funny voices, but only after Humf reminds her. The relationship between Uncle Hairy and Flora develops nicely throughout the episodes. In the episode when Uncle Hairy was late she was referred to as Auntie Flora. Initially Humf was unsure about this, but by the end of the episode he seemed to have warmed to the idea. However, he was still very happy when Uncle Hairy eventually arrived at bed time.
The Postman

The Postman is the local mail collector. He only appears in Uncle Hairy's Keys where Uncle Hairy loses his keys in the postbox.

Places

The characters homes

Most episodes will spend some time in one or another of the main characters flats.

The park

Often, episodes will spend some time in a local park which is within walking distance of the flats and involves crossing a road to get there. The park has play equipment as well as a sand pit and green open spaces to run around in.

Typical Plot

In general, plots are centred around Humf and his exploration of the world. An example would be when Humf and his friends go to the park and see litter on the floor. They discuss it and then start to pick it up and put it in the bin with increasing vigour. Humf's mum inturrupts when he goes to pick up a banana skin and explains that to be safe they should not attempt to pick up all litter as some is yucky.
