I never watched any of these, too old, but did they actually transmit that above excerpt on TV?

Default Geoffrey from Rainbow

The kids tv programme that is, not the rock band.
Passed away aged 76. I used to love that when I was a kid. RIP

I met them all when I worked front of house at a theatre. Individually they were great but Geoffrey, 'Bungle' and 'George/Zippy' genuinely hated each other Rod, Jane & Freddy were lovely, they spent a lot of their time shopping for antiques so we often had an office full of nice old stuff.


I never got to the bottom of their relationship

Did they really hate each other? 🤔
That's a shame.
