For this unselfish behaviour Soo was nominated for a MOBO award, but lost out to fellow East-Londoner, Nev, the former Smile! TV star. Sooty’s condition led to so much bullying at school and in his first job at ASDA, where children and staff called him so many names leading Sooty’s deep depression. To his credit, he never complained once. But that could be due to him being a mute. Some people have claimed that Sooty was actually a selective mute, meaning he can only talk in front of certain people. If this is true then Sooty could obviously only whisper his sweet nothings into the ear of bezzie mate and puppeteer, Harry Corbett. Some people believe that Corbett was a huge bullshitter, who actually had no idea what the fuck Sooty was on about, and made it up as he went along. Most people believe both Harry Corbett (the original presenter) and Matthew Corbett (his son) were liars because if Sooty was indeed involuntarily selective of the people he was mute around, then why would his subconscious allow him to talk to a ginger virgin with a puberty beard and his dad?

Matthew carried on Harry's tradition of ending every show with the line "Bye bye everybody, bye bye", and in Matthew's final ever episode, his final scene was a collection of him saying the immortal words from the preceding years. In the late nineties, Matthew Corbett retired, marking the end of Sooty and Co. (based around the idea of the Sooty gang running a shop that "sells almost everything") and essentially gifted Sooty to then co-star Richard Cadell, who presented the show through another five series, at first under the name Sooty Heights, then under the name, Sooty, both set at a hotel. He was joined in these by two female co-hosts, starting with Liana Bridges from 1999-2000 who worked in Sooty and Co. in the same period he did, and then Vicki Lee Taylor from 2001-2003, who had previously worked on The Queen's Nose. Sooty is frequently shown on the CITV Channel in the UK, usually weekdays at 3pm. In June 2008, it was announced that Richard Cadell had bought the rights to Sooty, having been put up for sale by HIT Entertainment in October 2007. Plans for three new TV show formats are underway, with a reworking of one of Matthew Corbett's stage shows due to tour early next year. Sooty also had a one-off animated cartoon series in the mid-'90s titled Sooty's Amazing Adventures. It featured Sooty, Sweep, Soo, and Little Cousin Scampi living in an old theatre by the coast. It was produced by Cosgrove Hall Films (the producers of Count Duckula and Danger Mouse); they gave Sweep, and Scampi actual voices and kept Sooty the same, having to nod his head to say "yes" or "no" or miming what his ideas are. Sooty is currently aired on weekdays at 9.25am (repeats of Series 1) and 8.25am (repeats of Series 2) and brand new episodes air at 7.25am on weekends
