I honestly think they should get Kevin and the Puffin studio to do continuity links between CITV shows. It would make the show a hell of a lot better. Not that i watch it of couse, CITV is rubbish!

CiTV's not rubbish.Tim the voiceover bloke isn't too bad,even though they're taking their time with the studio!
One thing though:
SORT OUT YOUR SCHEDULE,GET A STUDIO AND GIVE MoM OPENING TITLES!
And maybe they could show a certain show...

Funny bit on Puffin's Pla(i)ce yesterday. They were talking about the Oscars and Kevin said jokingly that they have won award for being the best ITV regional children's programme. That being because they are the only ITV regional children's programme. He then went on to say that next year they will probably win the only children's programme on ITV!


Also they were seeing how many times the word "Oscar" would be mentioned on the show... probably lost count!


And also apparantly it's Oscar's birthday soon as well.

A few weeks ago now, but at half term, the show became what it is supposed to be, and had lots of kids in the studio, from a load of kids who Kevin couldn't control to one shy lad who Kevin couldn't get anything out of!

Oh and today they were saying how he is now one of Channel's 'veteran' presenters and besides Kim Fortune he's one of the longest serving!

How long has Kim Fortune been there? I don't think it's that long. Especially when you've got the likes of Elaine Carver and Jane Stuart who have been there for donkeys years. Not to mention Eric Blakeley.

LOL @ Kevin describing Mr Puffin as "Lord Fathead" today.

I wonder if they'll combine any old titles and theme tunes with the current ones.

Mr-Stabby
I really can't remember any Puffin graphics or titles before these ones.

Well, what a great show today - all kicked off with some of the old titles - and some old footage from the CTV archives!

And topped off with an email from me (aka "James in West London") and a big plug for this very forum!!

Don't suppose you recorded it? If so could you capture it, i am at work so can't watch it.

Sadly not Mr Stabby...

I'm afraid I don't have capturing facilities either.

Ahh well never mind.

What old stuff did they show then?
