Brian Knatchbull
Brian Knatchbull is a Canadian puppeteer who only worked on the second episode of The Jim Henson Hour as a lobster and additional Muppets. He has however posted a picture of Jerry Nelson with The Count on the ToughPigs website as a tribute to his death. Brian was also seen as an illustration cameo in a book called The Bat Can Bat: A Book of True Homonyms; with several other performers. Knatchbull is probably one of the many puppeteers to not have a lot of info about himself. He performed additional Muppets with Bob Stutt, Trish Leeper, and Karen Valleau on that one Jim Henson Hour episode, and who knows, maybe in other episodes too (just uncredited in them). At least he's still keeping himself busy after 1989; for example, he has his own Twitter account. I should say Brian Knatchbull provides great info about the Muppets and that is why I think he should have done more with them. It's unknown as of now what other projects he's done outside of The Jim Henson Hour. Maybe someday he'll reveal on Twitter the productions he puppeteered in over the years. Still, Brian got to work with other Muppet performers from Canada such as the three mentioned above; not to mention Robert Mills and Gordon Robertson. Someday Knatchbull will have his own page on the Muppet Wiki and maybe then a whole lot more info about him will be spread out to people. Until then, he should consider posting updates on his Twitter account so he'll remain busy. Brian Knatchbull, even though there's hardly any information about yourself, you still did good on The Jim Henson Hour. Despite only performing a lobster, that still counts as being a Muppet performer. I hope someday the people behind Muppet Wiki will give you a page of your very own. You've just got to be patient Brian. I wish you the best of luck Knatchbull!
