Blips is a British children's television series from Ragdoll Productions, which first aired on CITV (on the ITV Network) in 2004 and returned for a second series in 2005. It starred Robin Stevens as Mr. Perfect and Patricia Routledge as the narrator. The 26 episodes were written by Alan Dapre & Robin Stevens. Since 2006, the show has been hard to find due to it not getting a home media release of any kind. The show features the blips, a group of purple CGI blobs, superimposed onto live-action footage.

Plot
In every episode, Mr. Perfect would aim to show the viewers how to perform a job or task perfectly. These are ranged from serving ice cream or using exercising equipment. Once it did it all once, the blips would rewind the footage before the narrator would say he was perfect at the job and start all over again. This time, the blips would ruin Mr. Perfect's work progress by setting traps or tampering with machines to make them go wrong. After this, Mr. Perfect would give up doing the job or task, and relax with a cup of tea.
