Devastating News: CBeebies Star Justin Fletcher MBE, Beloved as Mr. Tumble, Steps Back After 22 Incredible Years

In a heartfelt announcement that has left fans across generations reeling, Justin Fletcher MBE, best known as Mr. Tumble on the beloved CBeebies series Something Special, has decided to step back from the show after an extraordinary 22 years on screens. The news has sparked an emotional wave of tributes from parents, children, and colleagues who have been touched by his groundbreaking work in children’s entertainment.

Fletcher, 53, has been a cornerstone of CBeebies programming since 2003, captivating young audiences with his infectious humor, vibrant characters, and ability to make every child feel special. As Mr. Tumble, he became a champion for inclusivity, using Makaton sign language to connect with children of all abilities. His portrayal broke barriers and brought smiles to millions, making Something Special a timeless treasure for families worldwide.

In his announcement, Fletcher expressed gratitude for the incredible journey, calling his time on the show “the most rewarding and meaningful part of my career.” He assured fans that stepping back was not a goodbye but a chance to focus on other creative endeavors and personal projects.

“It has been a privilege to bring joy and laughter to children for over two decades,” Fletcher shared in a statement. “Mr. Tumble will always have a special place in my heart, and I am so thankful for the love and support from our amazing audience over the years.”

A New Chapter for Something Special

While Justin’s departure marks the end of an era, CBeebies announced that the show will continue with a new host, who has penned an emotional message to fans. The new presenter, whose identity has yet to be revealed, promised to honor Fletcher’s legacy while bringing fresh energy to the show.

“Stepping into Justin’s shoes is an immense honor,” the message read. “I understand the love and connection families have with Mr. Tumble, and I will do my best to continue the magic Justin created while bringing my own passion to the role.”

The announcement was met with mixed emotions from fans, many of whom grew up watching Mr. Tumble or introduced the show to their children. Social media was flooded with messages of thanks, with parents sharing memories of how Fletcher’s work brightened their lives.

A Legacy of Laughter and Inclusion

Justin Fletcher’s impact on children’s television cannot be overstated. From his iconic giggle to his creative and kind-hearted approach, Fletcher revolutionized children’s programming by emphasizing inclusion, empathy, and fun. His work earned him the prestigious title of MBE in 2008 for services to children’s broadcasting and the autism community.

As Fletcher steps back, his influence will undoubtedly endure. For many, he will always be the man who taught their children to laugh, sign, and see the world through a lens of kindness and acceptance.

Fans Say Goodbye

Though fans are sad to see him go, the overwhelming sentiment is one of gratitude. “Thank you, Justin, for everything you’ve done for our children,” one parent wrote on Twitter. “You’ve made such a difference, and we’ll never forget you.”

While the departure of Mr. Tumble may leave a hole in the hearts of many, Fletcher’s legacy promises to inspire new generations of storytellers, creators, and dreamers. As one chapter closes, another begins for Something Special — but there will only ever be one Mr. Tumble.
