Rastamouse is working his live debut at Glastonbury Festival 2011.

'We're very pleased to announce that another superstar of the children's books/TV world has been added to the bill,' said the Somerset bash's organisers on the festival website.

BBC recently faced criticism from some viewers after set a bad example for children is as dreadlocked rodent 'non-standard use of English grammar' claimed.

Referring to the CBeebies hero's lilting Afro-Caribbean patois rhyme, parents expressed concern that their kids could cause playground friction by repeating phrases such as ‘Me wan go’ (I want to go), ‘ting’ (thing) and ‘wagwan’ (whats going on?).

One mother on parenting forum Mumsnet said, ‘My child is white and I feel if she was to say this to another child who was not white it would be seen as her insulting the other child’.

'Rastamouse is part of a rich and varied schedule dedicated to reflecting the lives of all children,' was the response from the Beeb.
