Biography
Hull born Roy North was something of a fixture on children's television in the UK during the 1970's.
He spent 1973-76 partnering wise-cracking fox puppet Basil Brush as Mr Roy . Toothsome and clean-cut North also presented pop show Get It Together with another wildlife - based puppet , the sardonic owl Ollie Beak. The show utilised North's vocal abilities and he got to sing a selection of classic hits. Who can forget his rendition of Splish Spash I Was Taking A Bath - a 1958 hit for Bobby Darin ?
North's subsequent career was spent as an actor but without making to much of a ( splish) splash.
