Big Babies facts for kids

Big Babies is a funny British TV show for kids that first aired in 2010. It was shown on CBBC and BBC Two in the UK. The main characters are two babies, Brooks and Rocco. They look like real babies but have grown-up heads and voices!

Brooks and Rocco often get pulled away from watching TV. They go on wild and unexpected adventures in their everyday world. However, the toys on their shelf are always worried about what the babies are doing. They send Budge, one of their own, to go along with the babies. Budge usually goes because he wants snacks or other things for himself.

Big Babies was also shown on BBC Kids in Canada and ABC3 in Australia. In 2010, the show was nominated for a BAFTA Children's Award. This was in the "Best Comedy" section.

Characters in Big Babies

Here are some of the main characters you'll meet in Big Babies:

The Babies

• Brooks (played by Spencer Jones): Brooks is the more serious baby. His favorite saying is, "We should have stayed at home and watched the telly!" He wears a white bonnet with bunny ears.
• Rocco (played by Martin Collins): Rocco is the more hopeful baby. He even has a beard! He really looks up to a character called The Gonch. Brooks doesn't like this much. Rocco wears a white bonnet with mouse ears.
• The Gonch (played by Dan Kirwan): The Gonch is known as the coolest kid around. He wears lots of bling bling (flashy jewelry). He has his own special song. Much of what he says is in rap style. His catchphrase is "Later, losers."

The Toys

• Budge (voiced by Doc Brown): Budge is a brown, soft toy. He follows Brooks and Rocco everywhere they go. The Major always tells him to follow the boys. But Budge usually does it because he wants snacks. His catchphrase is "Oh, Bongo!"
• Dave (voiced by Spencer Jones): Dave is a toy dragon. He lives on top of Budge's cupboard. His job is to wake Budge up by tapping on the cupboard door with his tail.
• Eebie and Geebie (voiced by Daniel Cook and Eve Webster): These are two toy birds. They are usually the first ones to panic about what might happen on Brooks and Rocco's adventures. There's a TV show called The Eebie and Geebie Show with characters like them. But the babies' mum, Carole, always turns off the TV just as it starts. This makes the birds very sad!
• Major Moustache (voiced by Nick Helm): This is a red cat doll. He has an eye-patch, a big mustache, and lots of medals.
• Private Popper (voiced by Matthew Steer): Popper is a mouse who wears a military hat. He often sees through Budge's plans, which are usually just for himself. But the Major always tells him off, saying "Pipe down, Popper!"
• Koggs (voiced by Doc Brown): Koggs is a robot with a Jamaican accent.
• Teddy Bez (played by Gabriel Schucan): This is a teddy bear dressed in a teddy boy style. He doesn't speak. Instead, he answers any question by doing a dance.
