The ostrich used to have a stuffed Bernie Clifton on his back which he worked using his wings via a rudimentry system of levers and pullies, to give the effect of having a comedian on his back.
Bella Emberg was in fact two blokes in a converted dinner lady suit, again using mostly pullies and levers to create the effect of a rough old comedy bint.
I can't be sure of any of this of course.
