He shone Up above the trees and houses Periwonkle.

He's probably doing alternative comedy gigs at student venues now (like Keith Harris)

Geoffry is now a taxi driver apparently.....by all accounts he squandered his money after Rainbow.



As for Rod, Jane and Freddy ....a contributor to a forum suggested that they became swingers in Derbyshire and that Bungle also occasionally did a turn there. Don't think the contributor was being entirely serious Grin

My mother thought Rainbow was common (it was on ITV, wasn't it?) so I used to watch ail at other people's houses.

It was just one msn who did the voices of Zippy and George. He could just alternate the two seamlessly.

Rod Jane and Freddy did swap around. I also heard about the swinging. Apparently Freddy is eccentric and is in the music business and v happy.?

My mum also disapproved of itv, plus Zippy used to scare the shit out of me, too manic and unpredictable!

Remember the rude version of Rainbow on Youtube,it was hilarious,don't know if it's still on! And Jane always seemed a bit of a goody-two-shoes! Not in that...!!

Grin Manipulative bastard! I recently watched an episode where Bungle was playing with bricks and wouldn't let Zippy play as he is a bit manic, Geoffrey told Zippy to find something else to play so he decided to play at being a fisherman swinging his rod around right next to bungles tower of bricks knocking them over and upsetting Bungle no end

The chap who did Bungle was bound over to keep the peace in 2001 after a road rage incident. Not such a cuddly bear after all Grin

Apparently during the roads rage incident he 'launched a foul mouthed tirade that would make Zippy blush' and the journalist reporting felt it necessary to point out he that he wor a 'sober grey suit instead of his trademark furry one' to court
