    Wombles are pointy-nosed furry creatures who live in burrows, where they help the environment by collecting and recycling rubbish in useful and ingenious ways.

      Principal Wombles were:
    • Great Uncle Bulgaria - the Wombles' leader
    • Tobermory - an engineer and handyman
    • Orinoco - a shirker who loved sleep and food
    • Bungo - over-enthusiastic and bossy
    • Tomsk - athletic Womble
    • Wellington - scientifically inclined
    • Madame Cholet - a cook
