Oh, bother. - One of Pooh's usual sayings.
Winnie the Pooh (currently voiced by Jim Cummings) is a fictional bear. He was introduced in A.A. Milne's book Winnie-the-Pooh but is most famous for his Disney shorts and movies, like The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (1977) and Winnie the Pooh (2011). Pooh lives in a cottage in the Hundred Acre Wood. He is the stuffed animal of Christopher Robin, and it is implied that the stories about Pooh and the Hundred Acre Wood are imaginary (in fact, characters are frequently referencing the fact that they are in a book). Pooh has many friends, including Piglet, who goes to live with Pooh at the end of Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day when he gives his house to Owl (although this is not mentioned again in any media, and it appears as though Piglet has gotten his house back, since in the latest movie, Owl's house is back).
Pooh is incredibly fond of honey (which he misspells as "hunny"). Many stories about Pooh focus on his desire to get honey, most often with somewhat ingenious schemes that wind up failing, but he still gets his honey in the end somehow. At the end of the 2011 movie, Christopher presents Pooh with a giant honeypot for finding Eeyore's missing tail, and in Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree, when Pooh is freed from Rabbit's hole, he is sent flying into a beehive, where he happily helps himself to all the honey he can swallow.
Pooh is the founder of Pooh's Adventures, perhaps the most popular adventure series. Although many versions of this series exist, constant members include Pooh, Piglet, Rabbit, Tigger, and Eeyore.
