Zippy is sheer class in that.
When George goes on about how small his twanger is, just look at Zippy!
Classic!

True story, you can just imagine the parents walking in on their kids watching it and thinking "Errr..."
It's slightly too rude to be shown to children.
Some of the jokes are just a bit too blatent.

It's not. It was filmed as a joke for the cast and crew, and put forward for the TV companies annual blooper / outtake competition.
[edit] Although technically it *is* an original script as it was written by the guy that plays both zippy and george, it was never intended to air. :)
"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." "
