It's taken a while since you first asked (last July, to be precise!) but we're inordinately pleased to announce that Something Special presenter Justin Fletcher is coming to the Towers for a webchat on Monday 12 April, 10.30-11.30am.

Justin (AKA Mr Tumble) is a BAFTA award-winning presenter and actor, and won the MBE for services to children's broadcasting and the voluntary sector in 2008.

Fig rolls! Fancy that.

GeraldineMumsnet · 12/04/2010 12:08

Justin has now left so I'm going to post the answers to some of the questions we didn't get round to.

To TeaandCupcakes

The signing we us is Makaton and we chose it because it's specially-designed for children with learning difficulties.

Hi Lotkinsgonecurly

Yes childlren often sign when they meet me. It's remarkable and I'm always astounded by the levels of children's signing - quite often they're better than I am!

Hi Nobodysfool

Tell you something that would surprise you? Well I own four bumper cars - that often surprises people!

Mamaglee - At school I wanted to be a film director but somehow I've found myself in front of camera instead.

Hi IvanighSpare - Sadly there isn't a CBeebies Christmas party - or if there is I"ve never been invited!

Olifin - Yes I voice some audiobooks. I've done Wriggle and Roar by Jacqueline Wilson.

Megatron - It came as a huge shock to discover how popular Something Special became so quickly and, absolutely, it's the most rewarding show I do - no doubt!

Thanks Justin!

DramaInPyjamas · 12/04/2010 12:30

Damn it, I missed him! ):

5inthebed · 12/04/2010 12:34

I thouht it was at half 12! Oh no!

Justin seems really nice, not that I was expectin anything different.

clemette · 12/04/2010 12:45

What a lovely man (sigh)

Meglet · 12/04/2010 12:47

5inthebed I thought it was at 1!

I was at the tip just now and thought I'd got home in time for it.

At least I now know it is Justins voice in our vtec phonics board toy. We call it the 'Justin board'.

Macdog · 12/04/2010 13:23

Just finished reading - what a star Justin is!

aristocat · 12/04/2010 14:06

Amiable · 12/04/2010 14:07

What a truly great webcast!

anyone else willing to admit they are now a tiny bit in love with him? (well, OK, maybe a bit more than a tiny bit!)

Clarissimo · 12/04/2010 17:13

Me amiable [grin

I did ask DH for eprmission to go off and find him but it was denied. Dammit. Apparenlty I ahve ironing and washing to do.

Wigeon · 12/04/2010 17:23
