Get Phillip Schofield to re-create his blooper for 2004. Presses the wrong button and what pops up, Acrobats......thats worth a laugh in itself
But CiTV can't do it for their 25th with the originals because
A.It did'nt happen with CiTV
B.There was four presenters and they could'nt all press a button
Quite obvious though!
Huh......where did i mention CiTV, and seeing as this was a CBBC thread I thought most people knew the blooper I meant seeing as it has been so well documented
Has he? I thought he went straight from L&K to producing T4
True, but he has been on ITV twice, he was a presenter for a short amount of time during 1988 in the Mark Granger era and then he went back in 1996 to be head of Youth at LWT I believe, he also presented some saturday morning music programme that went head to head with L&K and no it wasn't The Chart Show.
But he then left in 1998 to go to Channel 4 and oversee the launch of T4.
Andi's first TV job was as host of a series called "Freetime", produced by Kate Marlow at Thames, in 1988. Shown on Children's ITV, it was a re-make of an earlier series by the same title which had been hosted by Mick Robertson and various females including Kim Goody and Trudi Dance. The theme was hobbies and leisure activities - ie things to do in your free time. The show also featured a duck character called Webster.
It was during this time that Andi presented CiTV Presentation from Birmingham for a couple of weeks as holiday relief for Mark Granger, the regular host at that time.
Andi joined Children's BBC for the Summer 1989 season of holiday mornings, where he co-presented with Simon Parkin (joined Christmas 1987) and Stephanie Lowe, a former BBC PA who is now married to Phillip Schofield. This season of holiday mornings was presented from a "satellite" (studio set in Presentation Studio A/B) and a "Base Station" (Television Centre roof). This season was packaged as "BFT" (shorter version of But First This, which had been the title in 1987 and 1988).
Andi was presenting two afternoons a week (with another duck!) by December of that year, and replaced Andy Crane full time as weekday afternoon presenter from Monday 23 April.
Andy's departure was announced on "Going Live!" in early April 1990, and he went on to front reports for BBC2's "The Travel Show" before joining TVS's "Motormouth" on Saturday mornings.
If I recall correctly Andy also presented CiTV afternoons for one day, as a guest presenter from the "Tommy Boyd" set, some time in 1991/2.
Thanks for clearing the Andi Peters thing up - I was a kid when he first appeared 10-or-so years ago on CBBC/L&K, didn't know he had a "previous life" !
He went back in 1996 to be head of Youth at LWT I believe, he also presented some saturday morning music programme that went head to head with L&K and no it wasn't The Chart Show.
The programme was called "The Noise" and it looked as if it was given to Andi Peters at the last minute when he joined ITV.
