Subject: [Puptcrit] Indoctrination


A T.V. Puppet series in East Germany after the war was about  
Sandmannschen Sandman - the story of a Socialist Superman which was  
created as a daily TV programme to indoctrinate young children.

In the UK as a boy during the war, I can only remember Hitler and  
Mussolini puppets being bashed about by Punch. I don't think that was  
Government inspired though!
