TELEVISION WORK
ROUND the BEND
MUPPET TYPE PUPPETS
LIP-SYNC TO PLAYBACK
Divine madness!
Set in a sewer, this was a
'Spitting Image’ spin-off
Children's series for HTV.
Chief Editor ‘Doc Croc’
presided over a gang of
rodent reporters.
A magazine show with a difference!
Series one shot at Limehouse
Studios. Then when they were
demolished series two was shot
at Thames TV
THE TALE OF THE
BUNNY PICNIC
MUPPETS
Adorable floppy-eared bunnies everywhere,
in this charming hour long Easter Special
made for the BBC / USA by Jim Henson &
the Muppets.
Shot at the BBC Televesion Studios at
Elstree which is now home to ‘Eastenders’ ...but in the 1970’s
it was where all of ‘The Muppet Show’
was filmed.
THE SOOTY SHOW
SIMPLE GLOVE PUPPETS
NO VOICE ( Sooty Whispers !)
Nice to have worked with a tiny bit of television ‘history’.
For the 50th and 51st consecutive year
of Sooty being on our screens,
I took over the manipulation of the
little magical whispering bear.
Complex servo driven Animatronics
one job -- the simplest of hand puppets the next...this work
certainly doesn’t lack variety !
