I Used To Watch Saturday Morning Kids Programmes

I miss Live And Kicking! It is Saturday and I am happy to be sat about in my pjs watching TV while my parents float about doing what they do.

@Rubysoo: Defo. I hated that Fully Booked. Absolute bollocks. Should have just done LAK all year. It's not like the presenters needed a holiday, they only worked one day per week.

Lol. Aww....kids tv in general took a nose dive about that time. I'm a fair bit older than you and loved all L&K's forerunners too. . Superstore, Swapshop ( was never a Tiswaz gal)
That formula worked....
But....society has changed...kids today want different stuff to kids then.
I was well in my 20s watching live and kicking...vut if it were still on...I'd still be watching x

@Rubysoo: I don't think children do want any different to what I wanted as a child. I was watching cartoons as old or older than I, but I didn't know it. Scooby Doo is from 1969! The Flintstones are 1950 something I think. Those poor children of today don't know any better, they need to be educated.

Bring back Andy Peters and Emma Forbes, give them facelifts and off we go again. :)

I work with kids....I really dont think today's 10 year old want what we did at 10. We would sit and watch....today children don't have the attention span. It's all Xbox and PS4!!

@Rubysoo: I couldn't play on my console for very long as a boy. I had to share it with 3 brothers. That allowed me time for Zoe Ball and Spiderman :)

....there was no such thing as a console when I was a kid! TV was as Hi tech as it got!! Lol x
