About two years after having a big hit with White Horses which was written for a childrens TV series I was asked to do a demo for a new childrens TV series called Rupert The Bear written by my ex and now late husband Len Beadle (aka Frank Weston) and a wonderful lyricist and friend Ron Roker about the escapades of Rupert The Bear adapted from the Daily Express funnies.
I said would be delighted. We then went into the studio and made the demo which was then submitted to the company who devised the show. It was quickly accepted. That is how Rupert the Bear began for me. Soon after the TV series started there were so many inquiries as to where the recording of the song could be bought. So back into the studio we went and made the record "Rupert" and within a very short time it shot into the charts.
The rest is history. I am so proud to have been associated with this long standing song and TV series. I hear from so many people the happy memories that it brings to mind everytime they hear it. Rupert Bear is still on TV to this day, however, for some reason or other the original song has been dropped which I think is such a pity as it was written especially for the first ever Rupert the Bear TV series that went on for years and it is closely associated with it. I hope the love and happy memories for my recordings of Rupert and White Horses will carry on for a very long time to come.
A huge thank's to all of the people who have written to me and I will always answer personally every comment that is sent to me. My Very Best Wishes to all of you who view this clip........................Jackie Lee
