On the net you can find a rainbow episode filled with sexual innuendos. Very funny stuff. But I wanted to know if it ever went to air.
Most say it didn't ,I tend to agree , but I need to hear it for a fact.

:smile: I remember hearing about that episode!!


That was the cast and crew messing around on set between episode tapings I believe - the urban legend of this show grew to epic proportions amongst students at the time!

The jokes were quite subtle but cleverly worked in so that it still *seemed* like a real episode, but you still caught yourself thinking "!!! eh?? - did Bungle Really say that... what's going on here????"

I very much doubt this ever went to air :wink:

Apparently the voice actor did both Zippy and George. And would do them LIVE on the studio floor. So he would have a complete conversation with himself in two different voices. While the other two puppeteers just flapped the puppets mouthes around!
