Toby Hull is the son of Rod Hull, a popular entertainer who appeared with an arm-length puppet known as Emu. He is one of three children from Hull's second marriage.[1]
After the death of his father in 1999, Toby brought Emu out of retirement for the 2003 pantomime season,[2] appearing in Cinderella at the Theatre Royal, Windsor. In 2007 Toby appeared with a refurbished Emu in their own series on CITV.[1]
