Tomorrow marks the 44th anniversary of wonderful “Skippy” making its debut on our television screens.
The landmark series included a cameo role by Frank Thring, as a villain hellbent on capturing Skippy for his private zoo. He was the evil Doctor:
(a) Steele
(b) Snape
(c) Stark
Answer:
(c) Dr Stark. (Dr Steele and Dr Snape were characters in the Young Doctors!).
Frank Thring was famous for arriving at the set and upon seeing Skippy being restrained in a hessian sack between scenes, he shrieked “If that’s the STAR’s dressing room, what do I get?”!

We all like to think that we’re unique… but there are plenty of Kevins and Janes in the world. However, in the 1980s in Kent in the UK, a child was born with a truly unique and truly unfortunate name. It was:
(a) Olay Biscuit Barrel
(b) Depressed Cupboard Cheesecake
(c) Silly Sausage Shortbread
Answer:
(b) Depressed Cupboard Cheesecake. Seriously. We’re not sure when the now nearly-30 year old had a name change, but a band has adopted Depressed Cupboard Cheesecake as it’s name in honour of the silliest name in the world.
