Summary at a Glance

On Wednesday night, viewers saw the pair meet Jill Purves and her daughter Vickie, who brought along a rather special guest to the barn - Bulbous the Elephant, a puppet with a history linked to the iconic BBC show featuring Muffin the Mule.

As they stepped into the workshop, Jill recounted how she acquired Bulbous at a puppet auction, saying: "I believe he worked in the BBC programme with Muffin the Mule.

Upon presenting the refurbished puppet to Jill and Vickie, they were astounded by the transformation achieved by Amanda, Julie, and expert David Burville.

Amanda then spotted signs of a previous attempt at fixing the notorious puppet, and Julie suggested the double lining was perhaps a way to try and repair it originally.

Muffin the Mule was a trailblazer, starring in the first British TV series for children back in the 1940s, with Bulbous being an additional character on the show.
