Orville the Duck was the most famous puppet often used by the ventriloquist Keith Harris (1947–2015) and was named after Orville Wright (one of the Wright Brothers).

Orville appeared on BBC television from 1982 to 1990 on ''The Keith Harris Show'', which featured assorted puppets such as Orville the Duck and Cuddles the Monkey. At the peak of their popularity in December 1982, Harris and Orville released the single "Orville's Song", reaching number 4 in the UK Singles Chart in January 1983 and selling over 400,000 copies in total. After ''The Keith Harris Show'' ended in 1990, Harris took up work for Butlins holiday resorts.

Orville (1799–1826) was a British Thoroughbred racehorse and sire. In a racing career which lasted from August 1801 until October 1807 the horse ran thirty-four times and won twenty races. In his early career he was based in Yorkshire and won the classic St Leger Stakes at Doncaster Racecourse as a three-year-old in 1802.

In his last three seasons he won fifteen races at long distances, becoming particularly effective over Newmarket's four mile Beacon Course, and winning several match races against the leading stayers of the day. After his racing career ended he became a highly successful breeding stallion. Background Orville was a bay horse with a white star bred by his owner William Fitzwilliam, 4th Earl Fitzwilliam.

Don Orville
Officer Donald Leslie "Don" Orville is a fictional character in the NBC sitcom ''3rd Rock from the Sun''. He is portrayed by Wayne Knight and works as a Police Sergeant in the fictional town of Rutherford, Ohio, though he is consistently referred to as "Officer" throughout the series. Work Although Don works as a police officer and later sergeant throughout the series, he is often shown to be somewhat incompetent. In ''The Physics of Being Dick,'' he lets Dick interrogate a criminal with him, despite it being highly illegal. When he is paged, he also never appears to know what any of the crime codes actually mean. Don is known to make a blunder of things, for example, in ''Stuck With Dick,'' when he thinks Mary's house has been broken into, he attempts to burst in through the front door and ends up shouting "Ass right there, freeze hole!" In ''Dick's Big Giant Headache, Part II'', he also claims to be always losing things, adding "I even lost a whole dead guy once”. As the f ...
