Tinky-Winky

Tinky-Winky is one of the purple twins and a member of the main Tubbie group. He is also a major character in the series.

Appearance
Tinky-Winky is an average sized Tubbie with purple fur. He has a triangle antenna and a blue square teletummy. He also has large ears, a button nose, cartoon eyes. Later appearances have shown him to have a grey notch in his antenna. He is the tallest in the group along with his twin.

Personality
Tinky-Winky is generally a happy-go-lucky and fun loving person, often spending time with Winky-Tinky, whom he calls his "purple twin". The twins often have friendly contests although they can sometimes get into small arguments. Tinky-Winky is also intelligent and likes to build machines to aid his friends, a trait he does not share with his twin.

Despite being the the oldest in the group, he is not any more mature than his younger friends, sharing a childlike innocence with his friends. Tinky-Winky also has been stated to be polite and always thanks others for their help. Him and his twin often talk in unison, which is referred to as them "chorusing" together. The twins also like to create mischief together, though usually harmless.

Although he is a polite Tubbie, Tinky-Winky also enjoys poking fun of others at times, usually Winky-Tinky's old and Dipsy's current boss Jokelo, although it's all in good spirit. Tinky-Winky is kind-hearted and will rescue anyone in need. He is not as adventurous as some of his friends but will still jump willingly into action if need be. Tinky-Winky has also been shown to be more observant than his friends, as shown in "Teletubbies Undercover", where he spotted a hidden blueprint for Po's trap which helped the group with their plan.
