Not too keen on Razzle Dazzle myself. That woman looks like she's on drugs, her eyes are SO wide . The effects people obvoiusly took 2 mins to create that stupid character, and stole the rest from Boobahs.

Everyone liked Something Special in this house.

And as for the bleedin Koala Brothers. Eurgh!

I like the fact Justin from something special doesn't look like a perve, (which is my honest opinion of the policeman out of balamory PLEASE noone take that offensively)
and he's really funny and very talented!

Bring back something special!

Hadn't realised it had replaces Something Special. We loce that here. Hope it is back on very soon.

Not seen said RazzleDazzle yet. I always manage to time my shower, or some job to be done at that time - DD appears to like though and keeps singing the tunes.

Not impressed with Razzle Dazzle.

I think the bbc have a good knack of advertising programmes by making them look good when actually there just rubbish. They did the same with boogie beebies.

Bring back something special!

Maybe we should do a petition and send it in!

Razzle Dazzle is just about the worst programme I've seen on TV, anywhere, not just kids' TV. That Patrick bloke is absolutely vile and his revolting story yesterday about going to the toilet and waking the baby made me want to put my boot through the telly and up his ar*e, he might have enjoyed that though. As for his weird, spacey friend, bleugh!
OK, maybe we can't have Something Special all the time but is was over in a blink and I think would bear being shown a few times without anyone getting bored or they need to make some more NOW!

Perhaps because it was half term? it might go back to normal again next week, my dd loves Mr Tumble too. Even I am getting used to him!!

But can anyone tell me what other programmes I have seen the asian lady in razzle dazzle?Its almost more annoying not knowing where ive seen her than the actual programme!Ok not quite.

The Razzledazzle presenters are creepy. They can't sing either. Come back, Justin!

My DS is 5 and DD 2.5 and both loved something special, they both followed all the sighn language and remembered it better than i did!!! Surely a programe that teaches kids to learn a new skill that will always be usefull is better than razzel dazzel [even kids turn the tv over when it is on!] I think petition is a great idea!!!!

Oh no, didn't realise it replaced Something Special, my dd loves/d that! Should we all write to cbeebies? Razzle Dazzle is crap (realise it's not aimed at me though!)

But I like boogie beebies NBG, my dd dances to it (she's 14mos so just moves up and down really!)

It's Mina Anwar - she was in Goodness Gracious Me and she's in everything they can't get Mira Syal to do. I'm very disappointed in her that she's had to lower herself to RazzleDazzle
