Press clippings
Rufus Hound should stop making boring Outtake TV and showing up on panel games. What he should do, is make kids' TV shows like this. Hounded is everything kids' TV should be. It's stupid, funny, hugely imaginative and formulaic.
TV Bite, 9th July 2010All kinds of things disappear down the backs of sofas: pound coins, fluff-encrusted lollipops, diamond earrings. Could the entire human race slip under the cushions, never to return? That's the premise of this surreal children's show, in which would-be TV presenter Rufus (Rufus Hound) finds his first day on a new science programme interrupted by having to battle the evil Dr Muhahahaha, who has invented a way of making humans disappear down their sofas and into a giant vacuum cleaner in deep space. Can Rufus's plan to knit a giant sock save the day? It's nice to see someone taking such a light-hearted view of the end of the world for once.

So. Tonight's the night. The show I've been involved with for the last three years finally goes out for people to see with their real eyes. Sorry to state the obvious, but I really hope you like it.
