Hello, I'm trying to see if anybody can help me with the following questions.
1 Doc, was the actor who played him named Grant Roberts?
2 Does anybody remember the merfolk-like Fraggles? Does anybody know what their names were? How did each of them differ from the other? This last question is basically asking for those who have sufficient memories to provide a description of these Fraggle characters.
Well, that's all for now, have a good day.
The Count.

Well, Count, Doc was played by Gerard Parkes in the U.S./Canadian version. Dunno about the rest of the world.

Go to Warrick's Fraggle DVD petition site. It tells you all the Docs and a lot of other good info!

The English Doc was called "Captain" and played by Fulton MacKay. The French Doc was played by Michel Robin and the German Doc was played by Hans-Helmut Dickow.
Hope that helps!!!

Hey, *Warrick*, since you're the resident Fraggle expert with a great site, I thought I'd ask you my burning Fraggle questions.
Because I'm blind, I'm hoping you can provide me with the descriptions of the following characters including hair color, eye color, nose color, skin color, tail color if applicable, and a description of the character's wardrobe with appropriate coloring. Here's the list:
All 5 Merggles: Mervin, Mermer, Merboo, Merple, and Merkie.
Begoony
Mavis the Mirror
Wander McMooch
Flange and Wingnut Doozer
Lanford.
If there are anymore I can think of, I'll post them later.
Are the character names listed on your site correctly spelled? I always thought it was Cybottom and Cutterpin, but if you have a direct source to correct character name spellings, I'll deffer to your wisdom on the matter. Thanks for your help with this research, and have a good weekend.
The Count.

The List was not made by me, It was made by Mr C. Vaughn (Who also has a Fraggle site).
I went through the spellings and they all look fine to me, It is indeed Cotterpin Doozer and SideBottom.
Maybe someone else can help you out about those Characters, I really gotta run !
See ya
Sidebottom

Yep. Sidebottom. The name comes from the fact that he's the fun SIDE of Boober, but Boober always keeps him on the BOTTOM.

The Mergles were Fraggle Like Creatures with Fins and Mermaid Tails.
Begoony is just a creature, He is like a Rabbit kinda, he is from 'The Incredible Shrinking Mokey'.
Mavis Mirror, is a Magical mirror.
Wander McMooch is a Fraggle Snatcher, He is only scared of one thing... LOVE!
Flange and Wingnut Doozer are Cotterpin Doozers Parents.
Lanford is Mokeys Pet Fly Eater Plant (I forgot the name).
Hope that helps !
See ya

You don't know who the merggls are, but your name is Merggle?

Well, the characters' correct names are the "M-E-R-G-G-L-E-S".
Basically, they're Fraggles whose lower bodies are designed to be more like fishes, kind of like merfolk.
They appeared in an episode where the Fraggles were going to cut down a knobbly root growing wild in the swimming pool, till Red swims underwater and reaches the tree from which the roots come. She touches the tree and Mokey reads her thoughts when she touches the roots, thus stopping the cutting and they save the tree.
You can go to Warrick's website and find some more info/pictures, or you can go to www.punchandjewlery.com and search for just the Fraggle Rock section.
Hope this helps and have a good night.
