Film & TV[]

Nudge made his original debut in the 2009 direct-to-video special The Good News Parcel Company. in the special, Nudge has both lost and forgotten something, which he only remembers is very precious. he makes multiple jokes to Colin throughout, before it is eventually revealed that he lost his Bible. Nudge later returned in God Rock where his boss Mrs Collywobbles sends him to Colin's music room to tell him to stop the racket, but he instead just makes a lot of jokes with him. throughout, he open his "School of Music", and reveals his latest invention "Nudge's Memory Verse Machine" (which is really just a brick with balloons tied to it which plays multiple sound effects).

Audio[]

Nudge has appeared in King of the Jungle, Colin's Crackers Favourites Vol 2, Fam Bam Bible Jam, and Catechismo Kids. King of the Jungle marked the debut of Nudge theme song "Give It A Nudge", which has been sung at most of Colin's concerts. in Catechismo Kids, Nudge takes on multiple nicknames and has founded multiple fake companies including "Sludgy Budgy" (a news company) and "Belly Button Fluff" (a sports company).

Concerts[]

Nudge has appeared in most Colin's concerts thus far.

Appearance[]

Nudge is a short male Muppet-like puppet monster with yellow fur, googly eyes and a large round head. he usually is seen wearing a baige T-shirt and blue-grey overalls. Nudge has a high voice, and speaks with a strong Australian accent. Nudge's legs are never shown.

Personality[]

Nudge is depicted as naiive, slightly immature and crazily enthusiastic, although he cares about Colin and the messages he tells him. Nudge is obsessed with bizarre sound effects, puns, wacky inventions and fake companies. Nudge is sometimes fairly childlike, but is depicted as a young adult (as implied by a line in God Rock where he mentions that he graduated at Puppet University).

Merchandise[]

Eco Friendly has produced a line of miniture Nudge puppet replicas out of recycled plastic. these puppets mostly resemble Nudge except that they are smaller, come with no (visible) clothes and come in multiple different colours instead of just yellow.
