The man behind the most loved puppet in Australia takes his final bow aged 92

ERNIE CARROLL 1929 - 2022
Ernie Carroll was an accomplished TV producer, comic writer and cartoonist, but it was a fluffy pink puppet with loads of attitude that won him millions of devoted fans and turned him into a TV legend.
He was the man and the voice behind Ossie Ostrich, the cheeky bird that helped make Hey Hey It's Saturday into one of Australia's longest running and best loved variety shows - and turned Daryl Somers into a household name.
“Ernie was a pioneer of television, starting back in the '50s, coming from a radio background to GTV-9 when television was in its infancy,” Daryl said in a tribute to Ernie, or “Ern” as he lovingly called him, after his death last week.
