They made their television début on RTÉs Dempseys Den in 1987. Zig and Zag's tireless efforts to entertain the children of Ireland finally paid off in 1989 when the pair were honoured with a Jacob's Award, becoming the first extraterrestrials to achieve this feat. Other notable feats include becoming the first extraterrestrials to commission a highly successful series of comic books, a #1 selling video Nothing to do with Toast and a #1 selling album Never Mind The Zogabongs... Here's Zig and Zag. Their television career includes The Den, The Big Breakfast, 2Phat, MTV's Most Wanted and The Zig and Zag Show.

  • Zig and Zag zijn twee fictieve karakters, in de vorm van handpoppen. Deze aliens kwamen van de planeet Zog en presenteerden in de jaren '90 het programma The Zig and Zag Show op MTV Europe. Zig and Zag beweerden dat Ray Cokes hun vader is. In 1994 namen ze een lied op met Reel 2 Real. In 1995 kwam er een 90 minuten durende film uit, 'Million Quid Vid', waarin Zig en Zag worden aangeklaagd voor fraude.
