Follow the link below to watch an episode of the classic
British children's television show "Rainbow". This episode allegedly aired
in 1981 and almost every line is drenched in inuendo.
UPDATE! As much as we would love to believe that this episode of rainbow was
actually broadcast to us in our innocent youth, the truth has in fact come
out. Rainbow fan-site, Rainbow.web.com offers the following information
on it's FAQs page:
"Although often introduced as the unaired
pilot, this episode was actually specially made by the team at Thames
Television. Geoffrey Hayes told us, "The VT department of each ITV company,
every Christmas had a competition to enter all the outtakes from their
particular companies programme output, and see which ones were the funniest. But
ours wasn't an outtake, we specially did it. It was specially scripted and we
did it and I never saw it! We did it and Thames won it, but what they actually
won, I don't know. But I never saw the video. I can't remember much about it
except for Zippy with a banana." The script was written by the voice of Zippy
and George; Roy Skelton."
But that doesn't mean we can't still get our twangers out and play with our
balls! If you would like to read the complete transcript of this "episode"
