Uncle Travelling Matt

Uncle Traveling Matt – Gobo's famous (as well as pompous, clumsy, and absent-minded) explorer uncle, spends most of the series in "Outer Space" (the Fraggles's perspective of the human world) and sends postcards back to his nephew describing his adventures there. He interacts with and often ends up interfering with the daily lives of humans, known to Fraggles as the "Silly Creatures". He sometimes refers to himself as "Matthew": he identifies the room filled with entrances to "Outer Space" as the "T. Matthew Fraggle Room." His name puns on "travelling matte", the "green screen" technique used to produce his film segments.
