File:Boffins - Episode 13 - The Pledge (1994) (VHSRip)

Description
I gotta say, this episode made me feel sad, it's pretty depressing for a kids show, especially considering it's the last episode.

Aristotle and Madame Curie set off on an expedition and Newton and Echo realise they have developed the ability to take charge of the scientific experiments.

You may recognise the voices of Alfred (Peter Browne) and Victoria (Deborah Kennedy) from Johnson & Friends! Probably because most of the crew members from Johnson worked on Boffins. :P

For those who don't know - Boffins was a VERY obscure Australian educational children's TV series about four small furry alien-like creatures (all named after science related people or things) who spend their days in kitchen cupboards and surrounding areas, trying to discover the science behind how the world works, Madame Curie and Aristotle are very close to some of the answers, but Newton and Echo, the young boffins from the house next door are only interested in having fun! The series was created by Film Australia, John Patterson, Ian Munro and many others who worked on Johnson & Friends. 13 episodes were produced in 1994 and were released on home video by the ABC the following year.

I have fond memories of this series as I borrowed the first VHS back in 2004/2005 from a video rental shop, even though the tape was in bad condition, I still enjoyed it and never forgot about it, in fact, everything I knew about science when I was young was learnt from this show. :D
