Bernie Clifton
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bernie Clifton (born in St Helens, Merseyside) is a British comedian and entertainer who appeared on the BBC television series Crackerjack with Michael Aspel, Peter Glaze, Don Maclean and Jan Hunt in the 1970s.
He is most famous for "riding" a puppet ostrich called Oswald; although he occasionally appeared in the dustbin of a similar "binman" puppet.
Though largely missing from the televisions screens these days, Clifton makes occasional appearances playing himself such as in the BBC's Love Soup.
Clifton is also the presenter of the Saturday morning programme on BBC Radio Sheffield.
