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.

Hope you can join us but if you can't, please post your question for Justin here.

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!

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'.
