Soo is a British glove puppet and TV character from the show Sooty and first appeared in 1964 as the girlfriend of Sooty.[1] Soo is an intelligent, calm and collected female panda who acts as the foil for both Sooty and Sweep. In the second and Third 2001-2004 TV series she became stroppy and bossy. From 1989-1997 Soo worked as a shop assistant at Hazledene’s, a small local shop in Derbyshire. She worked here alongside her husband Terry Nutkins.
Soo usually wears a red skirt, although in the spin-off series Sooty's Amazing Adventures, she wears a blue dress with a yellow flower on it and a white nappy. In the 2001-2004 series she can be seen wearing a head band with many different outfits.
