Posh Paws was a stuffed dinosaur toy used as the mascot for the BBC Television programme Multi-Coloured Swap Shop. The name is an anagram of the show's title and was the winning entry in a competition held by the show to name the mascot. The programme's presenter, Noel Edmonds, once explained that his name was actually spelled "Pohs Paws" (sic), because that is "Swap Shop" backwards.
