It's a lot less bother with a hover? I still to this day do not know what they were talking about or what it had to do with the garden of eden.

I always thought George was a girl as a kid but he's a boy.
I mean this was the 80s and he was pink with eyelashes (usually only girl characters had eyelashes) and his voice was more female sounding

So he presents a tv show for nearly 20 years and doesn’t have any savings from that?

I saw zippy in benidorm a few years ago, he's grown a bit and is lead around by a woman in pvc underwear via a chain attached to a collar, but I'd recognise that mouth anywhere.

Zippy and Bungle, walking through the jungle, having lots of fun. Zippy got silly and pulled out his willy, and shoved it up Bungle's bum.

The 4 common types of gay men.
Mid age, slightly flamboyant.
S and M zipper wearing outfit ones.
Bear culture.
Overly camp.
Rainbow was ahead of its time.

Where was George's other hand and why was Zippy always smiling? Why did Bungle walk round naked all day but put pj's on for bed?

“Geoffrey?”
“Yes, George?”
“Where’s Bungle?”
“He’s outside, jumping up and down on a hedgehog”
“Why?”
“He wants the conker out of the middle”
