Pipkins

Pipkins was made by ATV Television Production studios (soon to be Central Television) in the 1973 onwards. This preschool children's lunchtime program was shown on I.T.V. around midday and was an absolute must watch program. The first series of shows had George Woodbridge in the lead role as as Inigo Pipkin (Mr Pipkin) who was the puppet maker. Johnny and Bertha (played by Wayne Laryea & Jumoke Debayo respectively) supported the human cast for the show. All the puppets (Hartley Hare and Old Tortoise) and Inigo lived in a small toy shop in a town somewhere in England
