Dizzy Heights Hotel

[www.doyouremember.co.uk]

Dizzy Heights was a BBC children's programme based in a hotel with humans and puppets. I think there were mice living in the stairs as well. The show was about Mr Heap and Mr Wall's who ran the hotel with their family of chaotic puppets.The show ran for three years, from 1990 to 1993 after which, the Gristle family appeared in a series of their own called "The House Of Gristle" in 1994.

Even though I'd hit my teens when this aired, I found myself watching it quite a lot because I had a crush on Mr Heap. The puppets were quite grotesque. I think they would have scared me if I'd been younger.

I was only thinking about this the other day!

There were also the talking heads of a bear & warthog exchanging banter with each other & anyone passing.

The first series had a featured guest wander into a random room & had some sort of wish granted, but the later ones were more conventional sitcoms.

Dizzy Heights was brilliant I thought. I thought that it was a real different programme of it's generation. I so liked watcing Dizzy Heights and thinking how great it was made by the Puppet Characters.
