About this product
Product Information
The official and uncensored story of the stars of Rainbow, as told to Tim Randall by Zippy, George and Bungle. For over twenty years Zippy, George and Bungle were the biggest stars on children s television, inspiring a whole generation of adoring fans. But behind the smiles and the brightly coloured fur, all was not what it seemed in the Rainbow house. Having spent the last seventeen years refusing approaches from publishers to tell their story, the squabbling stars have agreed thanks to some serious financial inducements and a clause insisting they don t have to spend more than three hours in the same room together to talk to journalist Tim Randall about the highs and lows and the heartbreaks they have endured. From their humble beginnings to international stardom, via the wilderness years, this is Zippy, George and Bungle s fascinating autobiography. Here, for the very first time, is the inside story of what really happened at the beginning, middle and end of their Rainbow.Product Identifiers

Silly Story featuring Rainbow Characters
Expecting some good, true anecdotes of life behind the cameras during the making of Rainbow, I bought this book at (thank God) a reasonable second hand price. Instead of the anticipated true stories behind the making of the programme, I was 100% disappointed to find a fictional autobiography of the "history" of the various puppet characters, for example depicting the hippo (George) as being adopted as a baby from an orphanage. Likewise other characters early "childhood" experiences were described as part of this fictional autobiography. Nothing about the actual making of Rainbow, and true snippets about events which happened during recording. It was just a (trying to be funny!) attempt at humour featuring fictional squabbles between the puppet characters. It was NOT funny, not witty, not "clever" - in face the only good thing was various photographs of the puppets in close-ups with real people. If you are a true fan of Rainbow... save your money, and just look at the pictures. Highly NOT recommended. Sorry.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
