 Did you try your hand at operating Rygel?
No. We abused the puppeteers a lot, but no, I couldn't do that.
I'm told that Rygel was such a complicated puppet, that there was even more that could have been done with him, but nobody ever quite mastered him completely.
Did you adapt your character to individual puppeteer's styles?
No, we had to do the opposite.
I think there were three or four people who had a go at doing the voice. [Note - Rygel was voiced by the puppeteers during filming, and Jonathan's voice added later]. There was anything from a Mancunian to, at one stage, a girl.
A lot of the very hard work we had to do was integrating the puppeteer's voice with the text and the lip synch, because the puppeteers are obviously not actors. Also, you can't indulge in improvisiation, so it was a bit funny like that.
