The Rod, Jane and Freddy Show : Towards the top of 1980 Rod, Jane and Freddy were approached by ITV to try to to their own show. Plans went through to make a series of mini-musicals to be written and recorded by the trio, and in January 1981 the Rod, Jane and Freddy Show aired its first episode.
They made 7 series in total, writing and performing some magical and memorable songs. Rod, Jane and Freddy appeared in both their own show and Rainbow for 10 years until in 1990 when Thames TV lost their franchise and Rainbow came to an end. Freddy played the role of ‘Freddy’ within the show.
