Britains Got Talent meets Pheonix Nights. Second series of BAFTA winning CBBC variety/comedy programme set inside a “mock” prison starring John Thompson and Ted Robbins. Ventriloquists, acrobats, illusionists with ridiculous names that make the kids gasp and a lot of jokes about Peter Andre and Shayne Ward. Should be in prime time.
First there was Speechification, which is a lot of excellent speech radio from around the world wrapped up in a podcast. Now there’s Watchification. We’re selecting the really good stuff from the BBC iPlayer, from the shows that appear on YouTube and - you never know - maybe some other TV too. We’ve rounded up over a dozen interesting people to make the selections and we’re always very keen to hear your suggestions for good stuff that we might have missed. As they say, watch this space.

Marvellous. My kids love The Slammer. The prison setting is great, the format is beautifully worked. Flawless telly. Also, I should point out that this is the first time in history that Speechification and Watchification are featuring kids’ shows at the same time!
