Just when you thought it was the end of an era... there will be another chance to see the clip montage, and a final send off for Kevin today at 5pm!

Unfortunately, I don't think they put the weekend editions of Puffin's Pla(i)ce on the Channelonline media player for some reason...

So, a Doctor Who-esque ending to Kevin's life on Puffin's Pla(i)ce... I only managed to catch the last few minutes of the programme unfortunately (I forgot what time it was - weekends do that to you!) But now it is truly the end of an era. Sad

Look on the previous page, I already uploaded it. (clip montage)

I know you uploaded the clip montage... I was just saying that today's edition was slightly different (Kevin in the Doctor Who setting) apart from the clip montage which was the same, and as I said, I don't think they put the weekend edtions online, but those who didn't see it at the time didn't miss too much.

Has anybody been watching the new era of Puffin's Pla(i)ce with Sam Palmano this week, is he doing ok?

I saw it the other day, he was talking about Fire safety and why fire engines are red... didn't seem to be doing too bad a job... but it'll take a little time to get used to Kevin not being there.

Do we know if Sam's watching us as intently as Kevin used to?

My only contacts are at "the other side" in Jersey, so I don't know.

Hello my friends on TV Forum, after 5 years I have finally at long last got on here to say hello, and thank you.

Thank you for all your kind words of the show and of myself, all very humbling I must say.

Over the years since we first stumbled upon the site and saw that people were actully talking about our little show, we always checked in to see what you were thinking and enjoying parts of the programme.

I really had the greatest job in the world, it was such a great pla(i)ce to call work, and we all had a ball putting together a show that would appeal to anyone and people of all ages, not forgetting the most important part of the audience, no not you lot, the kids!

As much as I miss the job, the great people of channel, Harry and Oscar, it was the right time for me to move on. In fact I am hopeing Greggles reads this and sends me a message for an audition as I need the work Wink Wink nudge nudge He like you guys can see me back on Puffins Pla(i)ce TOMORROW & THIS WEEKEND .

Sam is away this weekend and as I happen to be back in the island for 2 - 3 weeks was asked to come back to cover. Sam by the way is doing a great job. He is so much better at the job starting of than I was when I started, god I was awful. So watch out as he is going to be outstanding over the years, I am very proud of him he is a great lad!

Well best fishes to you all Enjoy the shows this weekend, feel free to say what you think, I know you will. And yes Colonel Red you to will have some nice things to say I am sure Confused lol kidding no hard feelings
