We've only had the new "CEBEEBIES" channel on for about 1/2 an hour, but I'm already ready to punch the presenters in the face. They are SOOOOO patronising - just like all those spoofs of 1950's children's TV that you see. I'm glad that there's some new programmes on - there's only so many times you can watch "Superbods", but what was wrong with the old format? My children haven't complained yet (and I suppose that's the test), but I'm seriously considering it.
Please let me know I'm not alone, and it's not just a result of the horrendous day I've had, courtesy of various rail companies!

I miss Adrian!

And the programmes are NOT popular with my 2 year old. The Shiny show is rubbish (apparently).

actually the word she used was 'yucky'.

Website's nice though!
CBeebies .
I am going to suppress this thread from family discussion as it will just be another excuse for my cheeseparing dh to put off getting a digital TV. Sorry to hear the channel is so useless.

The Teletubbies Everywhere programme didn't go down too well with my ds. Teletubbies yes this new one no. Its the girl thats the worst of the presenters - its probably her first job out of drama school and she'd rather be anywhere but there. Liam is quite sweet so can we have him?

I love the word "cheeseparing", Marina.

Yes, what was that Teletubbies thing about? Then followed by a very old Bob the Builder. Have to admit, my dd watched 10 mins of it this am, and then we turned to The Simpsons on Sky. Yes, I know I'm a terrible mother.

We agree. My 3 year old laughed at the presenters pretending to make sandwiches for their lunch! Bring back Michael and Liam!

BTW the girl is actually Po!

She did Po much better. Ds loves Po (or doh as he calls her/him/it) but La-La is his favourite.
