You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Passed away at 76.
I saw a rainbow yesterday too.
Innocent days. Before smart phones and slug eyebrows.
I wonder if Zippy had a hand in it.
Someone had a hand in Zippy so it would be only fair!
Always felt sorry for Geoffrey - he had to hang out with 3 of the most annoying puppets on the planet whilst Rod and Freddy got to stare at Jane's arse all day.
RIP Geoffrey..
Freddy married Jane. The jammy bastard.
You always wanted Geoffrey to zip Zippy's mouth...but I can only remember it happening once ever. See you later Geoff 👍 all the best.
Freddy married Jane
Only after she divorced Rod.
RIP Geoffrey. He's up above the streets and houses now.
Were we ever to really understand what that programme meant? It’s certainly a bit odd, not really much in the way of entertainment.
I missed most of them, saw a couple an wondered ? Is this really a kids programme ?
Sad news, but 70 odd is pretty good going.
The funeral is going to be chaos.
Bungle will show up bollock naked as usual, not even a black tie, but will go home afterwards and put on his pyjamas before he goes to bed.
Zippy and George will struggle in their role as pall bearers on account of only having one arm each and no discernable shoulders.
There will be a punch up when Rod assaults Freddy for "nickin' his bird"
Meanwhile, Jane is in the disabled loo getting reaquainted with Roger.
PercyP. That made me lol.
I read once that Zippy is an earthworm.
Fat bastard if he was.
RIP Geoffrey
A road worker's (piss-)take on Rainbow:
I read once that Zippy is an earthworm.
Zippy is an Arab*, as was Geoffrey.
That’s why he’s orange
*Dundee Utd supporter, not ethnicity
I wonder what became of Bungle, George and Zippy after rainbow was cancelled.
Just Googled it.
Bungle got done for road rage.
Wish I hadn't Googled it.
Zippy on the otherhand (see what I did there) was voiced by Roy Skelton. Who was the Daleks... all of them.
Which is kind of cool.
Bungle got done for road rage.
That wasn’t real Bungle, that was K-9
edit : just googled it and no it wasn’t. The bloke who used to be Bungle at the start went on to be K9
Real Bungle went on to have a career in Drum ' n ' Bass
BOOOYAKA! BOOOYAKA!......BUNGLIST MASSIVE!
Just read up on what happened to George and Zippy. George tried to return to the Moomin community that he left. They wouldn’t accept him on account of them being massive racists and banished him forever because pink Moomin.
Zippy fell on hard times and ended up selling himself for sex. That ended badly when somebody trapped their balls in his zip, went in to a rage and beat him to death.
Tragic when this sort of thing happens to your childhood role models, just tragic.
Richie blackmore said he didn't remember him being in the band

Many of them but not all. You can really tell which though in the old episodes once you spot the voice. Dalek Zippy 😄
but 70 odd is pretty good going
Average or under for a bloke and even then we're dying earlier than we should due to the big C and heat disease.
From my perspective at least it's not that great as 70 odd gives me less ahead than behind.
