Tinky Winky is the first Teletubby. He is the largest and oldest of the Teletubbies, is covered in bright purple terrycloth, has a tomgirlish type and has a triangular antenna on his head. He is notable for the red luggage (described by the show as a "magic bag", but often described by other media as a handbag) he always carries. He often hangs out with Po.
Tinky Winky is not just the biggest Teletubby, but also very gentle. His favourite thing is his red bag. Tinky Winky loves walking, marching, dancing and falling over. He has a special song which he loves to sing to himself, "Pinkle winkle, Tinky Winky, pinkle winkle, Tinky Winky." Tinky Winky loves big hugs
