Snippet a puppet in the form of a boy was around long before Mr Turnip and it seems long after Whirligig too.

​

He featured in, and compared many shows and was a mini celebrity.  It was a show starring Snippet that BBC Producer Michael Westmore saw first hand the way Joy worked and what she could create, she was then appointed the task to create Mr Turnip.

​

He also appeared in many issues of the well known children's magazine Playways written by the renowned Enid Blyton.

​

Snippet's location is unknown, hopefully he exists in someones collection and may one day show his cheeky face again.
