Simple Dictionary Problem

I'm still new to some of Python's finer details, so this problem is
probably an easy fix. I can't seem to loop through a dictionary whose
values are tuples.
For instance:
oldlist = {'name':(1,2,3)}
newlist = []
for x1,x2 in oldlist:
for y1 in x2:
newlist.append(str(x1)+str(y1))
print newlist
Gives me:
line 3, in ?
for x1,x2 in oldlist:
ValueError: too many values to unpack
The docs I've read mention problems where the key is immutable, but
don't say anything about what data-types are acceptable for the value.
What am I missing?
