Aliex Yuill
Aliex Yuill is a British puppeteer, director, and producer who is well known for performing Jelly on The Story Makers and The Green Balloon Club. She was paired with Nick Mercer (who did Jackson) on the former and the pair also appeared together on a special episode of The Weakest Link. Other than doing puppetry, Aliex has also directed on-location segments for Tikkabilla and Fimbles. I've read Yuill also served as video tape producer/director for The Mysti Show and served as one of the directors on Hotch Potch House. Technically she has worked with Muppet performers on Hotch Potch, only she didn't do puppetry with them on that show. Other than Mercer, some of the puppeteers she directed are Victoria Willing, Nigel Plaskitt, Rebecca Nagan, and Francis Wright, to name a few. Even though Aliex Yuill didn't work with the Muppets, she still got to work with several of them on Hotch Potch House. If only she had a proper image of herself, then people will know what she looked like and what other puppets she did other than Jelly. Nobody knows what happened to her after 2008, when she performed Jelly on The Green Balloon Club. I just hope Aliex is still remembering how much fun it was directing & being Jelly on The Story Makers and other appearances. Maybe Yuill is still in touch with Nick Mercer since they were paired together in all of Jelly and Jackson's appearances. There seems to be many puppeteers that work on CBeebies, there just aren't enough self pictures of them on that wiki. As long as she's still healthy today, that's all that matters. Aliex Yuill, despite only doing one character, that's still considered a puppet you're best known for. I hope you'll reveal to people what you're doing currently, many people like you have disappeared a specific year and not revealed what they've been doing too. So come out of hiding and go back into the world of television, if you want to. Fantastic work Aliex. TTFN Yuill!
