Zig And Zag (Australian Performers)

Zig and Zag – in real life Jack Perry (born 1917) and Doug McKenzie (c. 1917 – 4 August 2004) – were a clown duo who appeared on Australian television from 1956 to 1969 in Melbourne, beginning with Peters Fun Fair. They featured on the annual Moomba parade and were regulars at the Good Friday Appeal for the Royal Children's Hospital.

In March 1999, the duo split after it was revealed that Perry had been convicted of indecent assault of his granddaughter.

McKenzie, a former prisoner of war at Changi, died in August 2004.
