"Yeeeeeeeeeahhh!"

My mirth is at no end after discovering another Christmas tape from the archives nearby Camden Lock. The saviour of TV-AM Roland Rat and his mates unleashing a few four letter words.
The first outtake ended up on Alright On The Night in the mid 80s and I reckon I wore out the VHS it was on by repeatedly wanting to hear Kevin the Gerbil say "Ohh, bugger".

I actually have the album somwhere which includes the hit "Rat Rapping" as well as a few rather dodgy but entertaining covers of "Summer Holiday" and "Love Me Tender".
David Claridge, the voice behind the puppets later beamed up to the BBC's Saturday morning summer show "Parallel 9" in the early 90s with Brian the dinosaur from Rotherham and his baby brother Derek, where Brian had a fetish for heavy metal whilst Derek preferred Take That.
I'm pretty certain that Incognito made an appearance performing "Don't You Worry 'Bout A Thing' adding to the rather quirky nature of the show.

I've been suffering from a lack of fruity liquid so tomorrow it will be down to Morrisons to relieve my elongated thirst. I may even buy some of the stronger stuff too!
