Jim Henson, the creative genius behind The Muppets and Fraggle Rock, has today been commemorated with an English Heritage London blue plaque, in the lead up to what would have been his 85th birthday. The plaque marks 50 Downshire Hill in Hampstead, Henson’s London home from 1979 onwards. The property lies opposite the former ‘Jim Henson’s Creature Shop’, where the creatures of Henson’s many fantasy classics including The Dark Crystal, The Storyteller and Labyrinth were created.
