"Rory, Rory, tell us a story, Rory, Rory tell it like it is!"

Children's entertainment from Yorkshire Television featuring a quartet of animals (well, I had a sneaking suspicion they were actors in animal costumes really!) from the planet Popland. The four visitors who played as a band were; Rory (a blue rastafarian lion) on guitar, Boots (a tiger) on guitar, Twang (a monkey) on bass, and Bongo (a dog) on drums. 

Arriving in their flying saucer the group would sing contemporary pop hits and tell a story before returning to their home planet at the end of each episode. The music sounded uncannily like it was composed by Paul McCartney.
