Gilbert
the snot-tastic acerbic green alien from Drill landed on earth in the Summer
of 1986. He was one of the co-presenters of Tyne Tees' Saturday morning kids
show "Get Fresh". Gilbert presented snot-infested sketches, antics and
escapades alongside his human pals Gareth Jones (aka Gaz Topp) and
Charlotte Hindle, and his gabbled, gooey ways made him an instant hit with
kids big and small. His stream of nonsense was as relentless as the
trails of green snot which spilled from his big red nose.
