Gordon the Gopher, also known as Gordon T. Gopher, was a yellow puppet gopher with red paws. Gordon's first appearances were on CBBC between 1985 and 1987, presenting television shows with Phillip Schofield on the interstitial programme The Broom Cupboard. In 1987, Gordon and Schofield, with Sarah Greene, went on to present the Saturday morning show Going Live! In August 2015, Gordon appeared in an online short where he returned to the BBC and got a job as a cleaner. In this short, he was voiced by Warwick Davis. In the September of that year he made a brief appearance in a special that aired on CBBC called Hacker’s 30th Birthday Bash when Hacker T. Dog interviewed Schofield and reunited the two. Gordon was operated by several people in The Broom Cupboard, but the person who did it longest was Chris Wright who also operated Gordon for the whole run of Going Live! Guild member Warrick Brownlow-Pike performed him for his appearances on This Morning and Hacker's 30th Birthday Bash.
