For a while I was puzzled by the faux London accent of Chester ''boy' Bob Mills, the mystery has I can announce been solved, It seems that Mills took voice-coaching from none other than Rainbow's 'Zippy'! The resemblance is uncanny!

The bloke who did the original Dalek voice was Roy Skelton, who also did the voice of Zippy.

How sad is it that he made his name voicing a character in a pisspoor ramshackle show for little kiddies which is inexplicably lauded by adults today as something of worth, and also Rainbow.

I remember Bob Mills in the mid nineties when he and Anna Walker did the Sky Sports highlight show on a Saturday night.

Anna, now owns a successful chalet business in the Swiss alps. I once saw her driving along the Kings Road in a BMW convertible, blonde hair blowing in the summer wind. She looked super hot ..

Bob Mills was in line for the You've Been Framed gig after Jeremy Beadle but they gave it to that one from Emmerdale Farm.
