Whatever happened to the TV ventriloquist?

When I was a kid they were always on TV, Keith Harris and Orville (and Cuddles the monkey), Roger DeCourcey and Nookie Bear, Lord Charles, Rod Hull and Emu.

And of course Bob Carolgees, that moustachioed odd sock wearing bloke, and Spit the dog.

What really set Bob out above other ventriloquists was that Spit the Dpg didn't do a great deal of talking, he just spat.

A truelly great ventriloquist, no?

Any chance we'll see the return of the ventriloquist on prime time TV?

For Standard Grade tech I got a piece of wood and well killed it...

In one year I destroyed a piece of wood that should have looked like a table. I broke a chisel and a hammer by accident. Although I did draw an excellent picture of a table.

I failed that bit of the course, oh how I cried myself to sleep.

Anyway ventriloquists... well I only liked them because theres not one that doesn't look as if there trying to make their mouths smaller.

Give it four years.

For my tech project in GCSE, I think it was, I made a ventriloquist monkey. He rocked.

His eyes moved and everything.
