Meet the veggies

Freelancing as a prop-maker on a CBeebies show called Mr Bloom’s Nursery, I had a genuine geek-out moment when I realised that two of the puppeteers operating the singing vegetables had a hand (literally) in the meanest, greenest singing vegetable of them all, Audrey II in Little Shop of Horrors – for  my money the very best puppet-film ever made. Twenty-five years on, they can still perform the exact arm-movements required to create the words “Feed me, Seymour”.
Take your pick of vocal vegetation below...
