A puppet is described that comprises left and right upper limbs (16), left and right lower limbs (8), a body (12) and a head (14), wherein each upper limb (16) includes a finger recess shaped to receive a respective finger of a first one of an operators hands, and the head (14) has at least one finger recess associated therewith to receive a finger of the first one of the operators hands, and each lower limb (18) includes a finger recess shaped to receive a respective finger of the other, second one of the operators hands. At least one of the upper limbs (16) may (10) have a movable finger (36) associated therewith, the finger (36) being movable by a cable drive arrangement operable by a lever (42) mounted upon the body (12). The head (14) may have a pair of finger recesses (46a, 46b) associated therewith to receive respective fingers of the first one of the operators hands, wherein the finger recesses associated with the head (14) comprise respective finger receiving components (46a, 46b), each of which is pivotally connected to the head (14) such that relative forward-backward movement between the finger receiving components (46a, 46b) drives the head (14) for angular movement.
