Should be banned, nowadays health and safety would be having a blue fit,
with people complaining to 'Points Of View' about the stupidity of showing a
programme that might influence young children to tinker about with the
inside of electrical appliances :-)

Not South Yorkshire - West Yorkshire! He was born in Bradford and in the
very early 60's I used to deliver the Evening Post to the house next door to
his In Guiseley, Leeds.

There's another clip on youtube you may like to seek out.
Basically the same plot-line except with Muffin the Mule, and Sooty's
got a magnificent organ. I'm not making it up, honest.

They can't even understand the concept of ventriloquist Peter Brough
and dummy Archie Andrews on a radio show., nor can anybody else
outside UK.

Some of us from within the UK think that it was pretty odd too.

The thing is, Peter Brough was had absolutely NO talent as a
ventriloquist. He just couldn't keep his lips still. When they tried to
transfer the radio show to television, the results were simply
laughable.

I've had a quick look on YouTube for an example, but I can't find any
obvious clips of the TV shows. [I wonder why!]

Of course, the radio shows were where Julie Andrews got a start in her
show business career.

It seems odd becausebecause we knew that Peter Brough was using the
dummy during radio performances. We don't think there is anything
particularly strange about an actor on radio performing more than one
character using a different voice for each.

The Goon Show would have been much less entertaining if Spike Milligan,
Harry Secombe, Peter Sellers and Michael Bentine had used only one
voice each.

I read somewhere that when Peter Brough transferred to TV he had to be
reminded not to move his mouth when voicing Archie Andrews.
