It appears that a Fox is not enough in UK online bingo and we may be in for a treat with a new bingo site called Roland Rat Bingo. If you remember as far back as the last century when Roland Rat saved TV-am from a dismal failure and then moved on to greener pastures at the BBC; you should be looking forward to his reappearance at an online bingo site as much as we are. The online bingo grapevine has it that this TV Superstar puppet will be taking on all other bingo animals when he comes live online with the Ratmobile (a bright pink 1953 Ford Anglia), his colleagues and friends, and takes his fans for the ride of their life. I wonder, has Little Reggie grown up, and is Glenis the Guineapig still the girl in his life?
Rat-fans will be jumping for joy when he emerges from his rat-cave beneath Kings Cross Station to take on this industry and inject a little much needed spark back into it. Regardless of the fact that fans of this game have not tired of playing bingo online, sophisticated fans are still looking for something special. There are so many adventures we can anticipate if this project comes to fruition. There is only one thing that concerns me, please don't let Roland Rat Bingo be on the Dragonfish label?
He has been in TV, he has had three UK Chart Hit Singles; he was nearly given his own office once. Kevin the Gerbil, who as we know is Roland's number one "rat-fan", was even inspired by Roland to make his own top 50 single. Who knows if he comes out in time we may even get the pleasure of a repeat of Roland Rat's Winter Wonderland this Christmas. With Roland peeping out of the windows daily with a new prize up for grabs.
