Major Characters
- Dig: Dig is Dug's fellow companion, young, tall and skinny in appearance. Despite being eager, hard-working, and ready for the job, he is quite naive, can be easily frightened, and is inexperienced. This can often lead to comical predicaments! However, little by little, Dig is starting to learn a little bit more about machinery and construction.
- Dug: Dug is Dig's fellow co-worker. He is stumpy, a little bit older than Dig, a bit more experienced with machinery, but just as bumbling and naive. Dug often controls (or tries to control) the assignments given to him and Dig, but his clumsiness often gets the two of them into trouble. He can even make little, fixable problems become huge and serious.
- Farmer Stubble: Farmer Stubble lives at Merryweather Farm. He appeared in the first four episodes, 'The New Tractor', 'Turnips in the Lane', 'Fencing the Field' and 'Trouble at the Haybarn.' His first name is revealed to be Ernest and his wife's name is Mildred.
- Mr Rubble- Dig and Dug's building site boss. The only four episodes he appeared in were 'Mrs. Sparkle's Shed', 'Cement Pudding', 'Mr. Rubble's Wall' and 'Daisy's Kite'.
- Mr. MacAdam: Mr. MacAdam is Dig and Dug's boss of the Roadworks site. He is very good with machinery and construction, but a closer look reveals that Mr. MacAdam is almost just as clumsy and bumbling as Dig and Dug himself. He talks in a Scottish accent. The only four episodes he appeared in were 'Night Patrol'. 'Nowhere to Park', 'The Giant Molehill' and 'Race to the Finish'.
- Mr Packet: Mr Packet is Dig and Dug's manager of the tractor factory and talks in a Welsh accent. he can discover voices inside the factory. he can deal with thing such as Oswald behaving badly, his new office arriving late making him feel upset and worried, solve Oswald's problem by 'saying he has run out of paint' on the day of the 100th Tractor. The only four episodes he appeared in were 'All Hooked Up', 'Owsald Misbehaves', 'The New Office' and 'The 100th Tractor'.
