to set the record straight -

The 'adult' version

In 1979 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1979), the cast and crew of Rainbow made a special edition for the Thames TV staff Christmas tape (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_tape), sometimes referred to as the "Twangers" episode. This show featured plenty of intended sexual innuendo (beginning with Zippy peeling a banana, saying "One skin, two skin, three skin, four... (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreskin)" before being interrupted), and although not shown at the time (as it was never intended to air), it has since been aired for the amusement of those who grew up with the show. The clip became famous after being aired on Victor Lewis-Smith (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victor_Lewis-Smith)'s Channel 4 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_4) programme TV Offal (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TV_Offal) (1997) and was jokingly referred to as 'the pilot episode', which it clearly wasn't as Geoffrey Hayes was presenter at the time. (It should be noted that the external page, linked below, erroneously claims that the episode was publicly broadcast as a regular episode).
TV Offal also broadcast some very risqu? material featuring members of the cast when they were guests on a variety show hosted by comedian Jim Davidson (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Davidson) in the 1980 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1980)'s; the sketch in question, which featured former children's TV presenter Tommy Boyd (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tommy_Boyd), asking a question about Adam and Eve. Boyd and Davidson used some profanities in the sketch, along with some innuendo from George (presumably again not intended for broadcast like the above), but the most shocking moment was when Zippy exclaimed to Geoffrey: "The ****ing Garden of Eden!"
Comedian Bobby Davro (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bobby_Davro) also parodied Rainbow as a comedy sketch in his own TV series in the early-1990s, playing the part of Geoffrey alongside exaggerated versions of Bungle and the puppets, which contained some mild sexual innuendo.



well about as straight as wikipedia can be
