Great up to the last 10 mins. The defeat of the big bad and rescue of people made no sense at all, though the Mrs Flood and 3 fans bits at the very end were fun.

If you want to see a real terrifying children's TV animal change try the the original Bungle from Rainbow...

The puppeteer, Nigel Plaskitt, is the original one but the Puppet isn't. Someone else kept the original. Nigel has made 2? I think replacement Hartleys since and they are pretty close to the original.

Nigel said the image on screen was the very 1st version on Topov the monkey which both looked hideous and was terrible to work as a puppet. He said later versions were better. Various suggestions were made as to who Topov 1 looked like with an audience suggestion of Fu Manchu getting most laughs.

By coincidence it was fun to see and hear Hartley Hare / Nigel Plaskitt from Pipkins at today's Christmas Kaleidoscope event in Birmingham's MAC. Well done organisers Chris Perry et al.
