    RIP Zippy & George

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-13693811

    Actor and singer Roy Skelton, best known for voicing puppets George and Zippy in the popular children's programme Rainbow, has died aged 79.
    His daughter Samantha Skelton told the BBC that her father passed away after suffering a stroke.
    The actor joined Rainbow in the early 1970s and remained with the show until it ended in 1992.
