Hey Guys,
On This Morning they had a UK Actor who is helping with the Afghanistan Project to teach children about war with Puppets.

The news came out late last year, Click here.

The Actor had a Puppet with him, It was a white bunny with a patch over one eye and an orange nose, He talked about KAthryn Mullen and Michael Frith being involved too.

They also showed pictures of the Puppets designed and creating by Mullen and Frith, They look fantastic!

Guys,

Tough Pigs have the Press Release from last year with pictures.

The boy, Chuchi, looks fantastic as a puppet. Kind of like a Pinochio type character.
Deew has changed alot from the sketches, He is more like a green Genie. Still a fantastic puppet!

It looks like that white Puppet int he picture was an early early prototype for the one i asw today.
Oh and his name was Hamish.

see ya
