"Up above the streets and houses
Rainbow climbing high
Everyone can see it smiling over the sky
Paint the whole world with a rainbow"
Hello Everybody!

Welcome to our Rainbow web pages.
The One Show
Zippy and George appeared on 'The One Show'on Friday 9th October 2009 and chatted to Adrian and Christine about what they've been up to since the demise of Rainbow on TV, and what upcoming projects they're working on. Click here to find out what happened to Bungle.
Rainbow Unzipped
Recently released into the Christmas book market is 'Rainbow Unzipped' the official and uncensored story of the stars of Rainbow, as told to Tim Randall by Zippy, George and Bungle. For over twenty years Zippy, George and Bungle were the biggest stars on children's television, inspiring a whole generation of adoring fans. But behind the smiles and the brightly coloured fur, all was not what it seemed in the Rainbow house.
Having spent the last seventeen years refusing approaches from publishers to tell their story, the squabbling stars have agreed thanks to some serious financial inducements and a clause insisting they don't have to spend more than three hours in the same room together to talk to journalist Tim Randall about the highs and lows and the heartbreaks they have endured.
From their humble beginnings to international stardom, via the wilderness years, this is Zippy, George and Bungle's fascinating autobiography. Here, for the very first time, is the inside story of what really happened at the beginning, middle and end of their Rainbow.
You can order the book from Amazon with free delivery until January 1st 2010 by clicking on the box below:

So, if you're one of those people who can't stop wondering just why Bungle wandered around the
Rainbow house with no clothes on by day, but couldn't wait to jump into
his jimjam's at bedtime. Do you wake in the early hours of the morning with a
cold sweat pondering over exactly what sort of creature Zippy might be? Or
perhaps the memory of George dressed as Mrs. Noah still haunts you...

We empathise. We bet it seems that the twice weekly visit to
your psychologist is costing you more than you can afford? The tranquillisers
have lost their potency? The desire to feed your neuroses is driving you (even
more) insane . . . ? Relax, you have come to the right place!

So stay awhile and enjoy our 100% unofficial tribute to
Geoffrey, Zippy, George and Bungle. In these pages, you can download sounds,
view pictures and find out about the history of the greatest pre-school TV
show... ever!
