LITTLE FRANKENSTEIN COMING TO BRIGG

BY KIRSTY WESTFIELD, NORTH LINCOLNSHIRE COUNCIL

A magical display of puppetry kicks off the LiveLincs autumn season

  1. I may amble along to the show as long as there's no strings attached, Nige.
    Talking about puppets, one interesting for us old 'und appeared on a recent Eggheads quiz show...
    What was the name of the tortoise that occasionally appeared in Bill & Ben...
    I remember watching this is the 50's...and, apart from Bill & Ben, there was Weed...or Little Weed...although the gardener was frequently mentioned, he never actually appeared.
    On the odd occasions, a puppet butterfly, or a spider would make a showing.....but the only real creature to crawl into shot was, Slowcoach, the tortoise....
