Product Information

Giant Panda: is the frequent and elusive subject of Rapids Johnson's search. (Gigglebox Pilot Series 1 and episode 9 of Series 2) The TV series was starred and created by Justin Fletcher, who plays the lead character in all of the comedy sketches and also wrote a few sketches in its first series. Some of the sketches are filmed in the studio, while other sketches are filmed outside; for example, one is filmed at Portmeirion, used for the fictional town of Wiggyville where Captain Adorable's sketches are set from Series 1 to 2. The show is interspersed with a selection of children called the Gigglekids, who tell jokes to Justin himself, in their own section called 'Giggle Box'. They usually say "Oh, no, it isn't" because people say that at pantomimes, however they said "Oh, snow, it isn't" in "A Giggle Quizmas", because "snow" is a Christmas pun. Arthur says "Oh, yes, it is" and then the round starts. We then go to a stage with a trio of children, in costumes, on it. The children dress up as bees, caterpillars, cows, frogs or spiders. The Burrito Brothers (Gigglebox Pilot, Series 1–4), a trio of strongmen who haven't seen good days. The older two are played by Karl Magee and Gary Cross. The youngest brother, played by Justin, always unintentionally ruins their acts in some way. They don't speak, although they do make vocal sounds. They also appeared in the original "Gigglebox" pilot. (In the Gigglebox Promo, the third Burrito Brother said, "Watch the Gigglebox, on CBee-Bee-Beebies.") Milkshake Jake (Series 1), a sundae bar worker who has a messy line in milkshakes and always gets distracted by the professions of his customers.

(Recurring in Series 1 to 2, regular in Series 3) Enrico Paso Doble (Series 3-present), a dancer who isn't very good at dancing and gets distracted during his routines. He is played by Justin and doesn’t speak. (He did apologise in Series 3 Episode 1 and does say "Arrivederci!" in the Series 4 and 5 credits only.)Ug and Ig (Series 3), a caveman duo. Ug (Justin) always tries to invent something and often fumbles with it due to his strength, and Ig (Freddie Butterfield) has to always end up helping him. Their inventions, in doing so, are never used as how they were originally intended to be. Ug only speaks in gibberish sounds while Ig doesn't speak. Ig is a child.
