The Rimini Riddle is an Irish puppet TV series that aired during the 1990s in the Ireland broadcasting networks RTE and Network 2. It was part of a television block called Saturday Club and aired two seasons worth of episodes.

Premise

The premise of the show is mostly unknown, due to many rumours going around about it. The Rimini Riddle is about three orphans, named Rory, Leo, and Ellen, who live with their aunt Vera.

The Rimini Riddle is about the riddle in the Rimini household. They live beside a beach and the orphans are not allowed to go swimming. Ellen meets two little girls on the beach. The mystery has something to do with the two girls depicted in a treasured picture owned by Aunt Vera, as they were said to have drowned.

It is also known to have had many story and character arcs, especially for a kid's show, making it called a "Puppet soap opera".

The Search

Throughout that time, two clips surfaced, one of a clip of the Valentine's Special, and the other being an unknown episode with a clip from the puppeteer.

The search for the show has dated back since September 24, 2008 in boards.ie. There has been a Facebook group dedicated to looking for the show and forum posts talking about the memories of the show, negative and positive.
