I was watching Ceebeebies earlier and I noticed that even the BBC is feeling the pinch, maybe because of the huge payout they had to give Lord McAlpine and the Director General?
That Justin does almost every show on there now, from Mr Tumble to Justins House to Something Special.
On Something Special today Mr Tumble had sent them to a supermarket and gave them 3 things to find. The first item was a ball and the downs syndrome kid grabbed a Mitre ball and was all excited but Justin said "No lets take this one" and picked up a 99p flimsy beachball. The special kid wasn't having any of it and kept saying "This one, this one" but Justin was ignoring her and taking the basics range ball.
Sad to see the economic situation affecting quality programming.

Not often you see the BBC mentioned in the context of "quality programming".

well get use to it Greenjock because when the Beeb start paying out compensation to the victims of Jimmy "wandering hands jingle jangle jewellery" Savile we will be getting cheap programming and repeats. From now and then

That Justin bloke, if its the one I'm thinking about, is on stacks of money.
Goodbye my friends, we've got to go, good bye my friends...etc.

That's him, also does Mr Tumble and now has a show called Justin's House!
On 5, that's where we have the TV until 09.15, they have such gems as Little Princess which is far funnier than Waybaloo. I particularly enjoy the General, who is very light on his feet for a military man, if you catch my drift.
