Rainbow's Ronnie Le Drew Reveals How He Became the Voice of Zippy | Lorraine

[@johntimothy315]

Ronnie Le Drew was the puppeteer - Roy Skelton was the voice of Zippy and George. It's been three years since this was published and I can't believe I'm the first one to point this out ITV!!!!

[@JohnnyX50]

If I'd seen this sooner I would have pointed this out too mate, so good for you for making it clear. Roy deserves some credit too, not to mention his skills as Dalek voices!!

[@CronusFN190]

Istg he is my grandad

[@SeanEvans2]

Maybe so but Ronnie has puppeteered Zippy since 1975 and has voiced him since 1993.

[@petemarr824]

Would have suited doing the voice of George.

[@herbalrider9496]

Peter Hawkins was first to voice Zippy, then Roy Skelton, then in 1994 Ronnie Le Drew was both Zippy's puppeteer and voice.

[@richards9407]

I think Stephen Hawkins might have done a good job of Zippy.

[@semajttam]

Skelton and Hawkins both voiced the Daleks. A shame they weren't the standard duo for Daleks throughout the classic run of Dr Who, Hawkins voice made them so malevolent.

How could they have him on the show and not get him to actually do Zippy's voice for us 🤷 pointless having him there 😂😂😂😂

[@johnryan8173]
