Zig and Zag, and Ian Dempsey on Dempsey's Den (1998)
'Dempsey's Den' presented by Ian Dempsey began on 29 September 1986. Puppets Zig and Zag arrived in Ireland from planet Zog. The two aliens and their dog Zuppy were adopted by Ian Dempsey. The children's afternoon presentation was later shortened to 'The Den'. Zig and Zag were joined by a sock monster, Soky, and a turkey, Dustin.
Although originally aimed at children, 'The Den' gained cult status among the student population.
