''Tots TV'' is a puppet show for children by Creator/RagdollProductions (creators of ''Series/{{Teletubbies}}'', ''Series/{{Brum}}'' and ''Series/RosieAndJim'') for [[Creator/{{ITV}} Central Independent Television]], which was broadcast between 1993 and 1998.

The show is about three elf-like creatures called Tots, who live in a big secret house in the middle of nowhere. The protagonists are:
* Tilly speaks GratuitousFrench (GratuitousSpanish in the American version), but understands English very well. She has a magic bag with her, which she likes to call a ''sac magique''/''bolsa mágica''. She is good at playing the piccolo.
* Tom is the cleverest of the tots, and the oldest. He wears glasses and has blue-colored hair.
* Tiny is the youngest and has a WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse-style voice, but with a '''heavy''' Essex accent.

A mischievous CartoonCreature, Furryboo, lives with the tots, too, but that's a secret! The trio have a pet donkey which they nuture, who is named, well, [[ADogNamedDog Donkey]].

The show was first broadcast on Creator/{{CITV}}, but was also shown on Creator/PBSKids in the United States. In the 2000s, reruns were aired on Creator/CBeebies.

Not to be confused with ''WesternAnimation/{{TOTS}}''.


----
!!Tropes:
* AlphabeticalThemeNaming: The three tots are named '''T'''illy, '''T'''om, and '''T'''iny.
* AlliterativeTitle: '''T'''ots '''T'''V
* BilingualDialogue: Tilly speaks French (Spanish in the American dub).
* CartoonCreature: Furryboo looks and behaves like a mix between a rodent and a small puppy.
* {{Catchphrase}}: Tilly: "Sac Magicque, Sac Magicque."
* ADogNamedDog: The tots own a donkey that they've named Donkey.
* ExpositoryThemeTune: "I'm a tot, ''Je suis une tot''. Tilly, Tom, and Tiny, we're the Tots on ''Tots TV'', ''one, two, three'', '''BOO!'''"
* IdiosyncraticEpisodeNaming: Every episode has a noun as its title.
* MeaningfulName: Tiny has a WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse voice.
* MissedHimByThatMuch: The Tots, due to obliviousness or contrivance, never catch onto Furryboo's existence despite it living in the same house as them. They do sometimes see or hear its presence, but it is always obscured enough for them to never figure out its identity (eg. it moving underneath an object, convincing them it is alive or magic).
* TheMovie: ''Big Treasure Adventure''.
* RepeatingSoTheAudienceCanHear: When Tilly says something in French, Tom or Tiny would sometimes repeat it in English.
* ShoutOut: As with ''Series/RosieAndJim'', this show contains loads of sightings to find! Try watching the Playground episode! [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V47Q5yVBn2k Good luck, you'll need it!]]
* SuperheroEpisode: Super Tiny. Yes, even for a show from the creators of ''Series/{{Teletubbies}}''.
* TokenMinority: Tom is British-African.
* TricksterArchetype: For a francophone character, Tilly actually loves causing trouble. Take the time she used a donkey mask on the others in one episode.
