Basil Brush and the Airbed 1976
Just an excuse to look at pics of Basil Brush,my fav kids prog of the 70s,always makes me smile,why is it when anyone grabs his snout i laugh. Boom Boom! Basil Brush comes to the rescue of potential careless bathers in this COI (Central Office of Information) film, trading bad puns and banter with his erstwhile comic partner Roy North.
Basil was voiced and operated by Ivan Owen, a publicity-shy actor who remained anonymous during the puppets career and never gave interviews or allowed himself to be photographed. It has been reported that he modelled the voice on the comic actor Terry-Thomas |
