Hi Richard, You must be a youngster, the first puppet show I can remember was "four feather falls" on reflection it was bad even for children, it made Supercar look like a epic Regards Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendel Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 I have met the man who created captain pugwash. he says none of the innuendo was actually meant (and most of the stories about innuendo are not in fact true.) he used to live near Ypres tower in Rye.
