Jack's Throwback Attack Podcast - S5 E5 - A Chat With Robin Stevens

Time for another nostalgic chat and it's the last one in the series, this time I am chatting with puppeteer Robin Stevens. 

You can also listen to the podcast on Spotify, Soundcloud and Apple podcasts

Robin has appeared on the podcast before chatting about Rosie and Jim with his co-stars Rebecca Nagan and Neil Brewer but I wanted to chat with him about his wider CV of work. 

Robin trained in puppetry at The Cannon Hill Puppet Theatre in Birmingham. His best known work is with Ragdoll Productions working as a puppeteer on Pob's Programme (as Pob), Rosie and Jim (as Jim), and Tots TV (as Tom). He also appeared in character on Boobah (as Grandpapa) and Blips (as Mr.Perfect). 

After working with Ragdoll for nearly 25 years Robin stepped down and has since moved to North Carolina and works for Noble Cider
