Transcript

Gigglebiz is a British children's comedy television programme (described as a 'live-action comedy sketch show' [5] by the BBC) consisting of five series that have been broadcast on CBeebies, [4] the BBC's younger children's channel, starting in 2009. Humphrey (Humphrey the Painter Pilot, Series 1, 3-present), a silent man who is irrepressible and inquisitive. His trusty dog companion and best friend is Woody the dog. Like with Captain Adorable, Humphrey originally appeared in his own standalone pilot (where he was a painter) before being added to Gigglebiz. (The only time Humphrey spoke was in the outtakes)
