From what I can find, he's done some minor stuff - at the very least, a season 46 ep and the 2016 Christmas special.

Yeah, he's done a bit of puppeteering on the show the last couple of years. You can see more of his stuff on YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/y3bom6bs

If David Smyrl was still with us, what do you think the chances would be of having Mr. Handford included as part of the special?
