Nessies
Baby-Ness
The youngest of the Nessies, Baby-Ness is very cute without any teeth, but you wouldn’t want to change his nappy! Unfortunatly he managed to give all the other Nessies measils, but got better when Angus & Elspeth bought him a whole jar of sticky sweets.
Careful-Ness
Well, the name says it all really, seen here hiding in the woods after an outbreak of measels, caused by a certain Baby-Ness…..
Clever-Ness
A bit of a brain-box, Clever-Ness carries a range of tools and equipment about him, and can no doubt be found conjouring up inventions at the bottom of the loch. Clever-Ness helped the children with their homework, by counting on an abacus of other Nessies!
Eager-Ness
A good Nessy that is always willing to help when the children get in a scrape. He helped the children buy a puppy from a tinker by collecting coins from the bottom of the loch. Unfortunatly he collected mostly washers and bottle tops, along with one very useful gold coin.
Eyewit-Ness
With a patch over one eye, Eyewit-Ness looks very much like a pirate…. as demonstrated on the credits to the program where he steals the notes for his lunch!
Ferocious-Ness
Ferocious-Ness is the original Loch Ness Monster, and enjoys nothing more than scaring people around the
loch. Despite his evil look and roar, he is quite a friendly Nessy, and always gets on well with the children. After accidentally sitting on and squashing Elspeth & Angus’ model monster, he stood on their float and won 3rd prize in the Loch Ness monster look-a-like contest. He has the uncanny ability to change colour whenever he chooses in order to hide from people on the loch-side. In one episode he changes so much he forgets how to change back again, and has to hide to avoid being caught.
Grumpy-Ness
Ba Humbug! Grumpy-Ness is, as you can well imagine, not the nicest of the Nessies. The Victor Meldrew of the loch, always in a bad mood and always moaning on about one thing or another. A Nessy to steer well clear of, even when he’s having a good day!
Grumpy-Ness appears in “Silly-Ness and the Bubble Machine”. He appears out of the loch when the children blow on their secret thistle whistles, and isn’t pleased at the interruption. Whatever that silly professor is up to now, it’s not of interest to him.
With his scarf and walking stick, he seams to be a bit of an old Grandpa figure, always going on about the good old days when we had to work down the loch for tuppence an hour day in day out; I don’t know – these young Nessies don’t know they’re born…..
Heavy-Ness
A big Nessy, Heavy-Ness can always be found trying to get Silly-Ness out of Holes along with help from Mighty-Ness. Probably brothers
Her Highness
Her majesty, the ruler of the Nessies is very graceful, and first gave Angus & Elspeth their thistle whistles to thank them for saving Silly-Ness. She can also breathe fire – A novel trick she learnt from an old Chinese cousin, and very useful to keep one’s self warm during the cold highland winter…..
Lovely-Ness
The Beautiful Lovely-Ness certainly gains the attractions of all the other Nessies, which is hardly surprising, as she seams to be the only female Nessy, apart from Her Highness. And in a loch that size, is probably related to all the other Nessies…..
I won’t bring up the subject of inbreeding, but Silly-Ness is a likely result!
Mighty-Ness
Along with Heavy-Ness, Mighty-Ness is always being called to help Silly-Ness out of holes.
Silly-Ness
Silly-Ness is always getting himself onto scrapes, and stuck down holes. Elspeth & Angus first met the Nessies by helping Silly-Ness out of another hole.
Speedy-Ness
A Nessy that would make a great courier, Speedy-Ness is always zooming about. He once helped the children get to Inverness when Mr McTout forgot his bagpipes for a competition. Speedy-Ness also acts as a great speedboat for Sporty-Ness! (See below).

Sporty-Ness
Being a loch based dinosaur type of creature means that Sporty-Ness engages in a lot of water sports. He is especially good at water-skiing, and likes to show off. However this is a bit careless on a loch popular with anglers, and has often been spotted by fishermen. Fortunately, no-one would believe that the Loch Ness monster would be water-skiing, well where on earth would he get the speedboat?!
