Saturday Mornings

Do the BBC have any plans to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Saturday morning children's television? It's wait and see at the moment, but we've put together some of our own comments, ideas, and speculation of what 'could' happen to celebrate the 50th. saturdaymornings.co.uk/slinky.php?tc=…

Remember this audience game from the first Saturday Show on 22 September 2001? This, along with another audience game called the 'The Guess List' were both binned after just one outing! L&K may have been looking tired, but the Saturday Show was just a mess. #saturdaymornings

Live & Kicking Karaoke Chaos! #saturdaymornings

We've moving towards the tail end of the first series of L&K Friday. On the programme broadcast on 20 March 1998 the guests joining Zoe and Jamie were boy band Five. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/FPWJEHJJaVk

From 2000's FBi a short bumper that was used on the first programme between the two parts of the RugRats. Vernon Kay, Kate Heavenor and Keith Duffy are in full agent mode... #saturdaymornings

Are you ready to run again? #saturdaymornings youtu.be/vye8NqA9RlQ

As we mentioned Fully Booked earlier, here's the earliest recording we have in our archive. The second programme from series 1 broadcast on 29 April 1995. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/9e2R7WsFLgE

It's the last Live & Kicking of series 2, Grant Stott and Zoe Ball have dropped in to the studio to trail the brand new Saturday morning programme for the summer - Fully Booked. #saturdaymornings

We thought we would take you back to 24 September 1994 today for the first programme of the second series of Live & Kicking. Some of the features we knew and loved from L&K started here, including the RugRats and the phone jingle. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/NKDmoA05jyU

Continuing our run through the first series of L&K Friday we've reached 13 March 1998 - just 28 years ago! #saturdaymornings youtu.be/QUbX8X69pHo

Hello, do you like cartoons? We do. #saturdaymornings

Time for part 5 of the St-iii-ng Files and a visit to Roberts Records. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/Z9YT6Ir1Suc

It's business as normal for The Singing Corner on the 4 November 1989 edition of Going Live! when Barbara Windsor (and not the Queen) joins Don and Bob for a song. #saturdaymornings

@Hadders41183 Correct, the programme moved to the much larger TC3 for the fourth series before moving across to the similarly sized TC6 where the Saturday morning programme remained until TMi used the MTV studio in Leicester Square for one series before moving to TC9 for the last three series.

@SatMornings Live and Kicking was the final Saturday morning show to occupy TC7.

A little mid-week bonus, on 22 September 1995 Blue Peter's Stuart Miles paid a live visit to TC7 to find out about the new series of Live & Kicking that was starting the following day. #saturdaymornings

We've haven't done one of these for a few months, so why not take a while to relive the (almost) complete edition of Live & Kicking from this day (7 March) in 1998. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/iVmHfKaUo5g

L&K Friday from 6 March 1998 has an antipodean feel as Jamie and Zoe were joined in studio 6 by Kylie Minogue. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/0Oa1u512nMw

It's time to play Blob A Job on 3 October 1998's L&K, and Jamie is about to experience the nightmare of a competition phone out on live television going horribly, horribly wrong. #saturdaymornings
