I am a keen watcher of 'See How They Run.' I usually enjoy programmes which I can relate to, and I have to say, I thought my days of watching childrens BBC were over, but I was reccomended this programme by a friend, and have been hooked ever since. The programme is about a family on the run from a drug 'gorgon.' The older of the Cassidy sisters has a strong relationship with a boy called Sam. The complication being that his father is at the centre of the 'enemy.' See How They Run follows the runaway of this family whilst on a witness protection scheme, and every episode, there is a great deal of tension. The programme has exciting story lines, not at all babyish, and the characters act their parts well.

Advantages: Humour,drama,suspens,great acting Disadvantages: It's only on twice a week
This is one of the best shows I have seen on Children's BBC for a long time! It is supposed to be a children's programme, but my whole family watches it. The main family is on the run from drug dealers and keep getting found due to insiders in the police force. I saw this series the first time it was aired so I know that it gets even better. The plot is extremely fast moving and the level of suspense is kept at a constant high. The acting is brilliant, ...

"See how they run" is a childrens drama on BBC1 but now it has been taken off the tv because the series came to an end sadly. The programme is about a family who have to leave their home because of the gorgan wants to kill them so they are on the run. There are two schoolgirls in the family so it is hard for them as they have to have a different identity and they have to keep moving schools. The show lasts for about 6 episodes and in the end they ...

Advantages: The stunts and acting. Te realism of the story and how close it ran with the book Disadvantages: The lack of changing scenes
From a childs point of view the series was actually quite interesting with a realistic outlook on life put in a simple way for children to understand. I enjoyed it bothi times that it was shown on TV and I found it full of quite a lot of action. It was good that the two main (child) characters weren't sterotypical girls (ie they werent models) but all of the actors were sucessful in letting us give our whole attention to the story. I fell that it ... ...however be appropriate if it is set in just one place. Special effects and stunts were quite a common occurence with all being very well prepared and followed through. The story line was about a family who the father of was being chased by a ghang of criminals who he was giving evidence against. It is a story of how they keep escaping from the criminals and go under a police protection act. ...

Advantages: None Disadvantages: Its incredibly annoying
I find out of tune a very boring and predictable program. It is about a church childrens choir who meet in the church hall and who can't sing. The characters are unrealistic and are not acted well at all. The storyline is very boring and not at all funny. The thing that annoys me most about the program is that after every unfunny joke there is laughing! The BBC have made many other, far better Childrens dramas like 'SeeHowTheyRun'. I would not recommend this program to anybody, it annoys everyone in my family! ...

This has to be the most cheesy game show that runs on television these days. Ok the concept for the actual game show is ok but there isn?t much happening in relation to real nail biting excitement. Watch six contestants run around like headless chickens around this purpose built supermarket looking for various items to bring back like a dog playing fetch with its owner only bring the items back to Dale. The best bit of the game show is the supermarket sweep where its great fun watching to seehow big they manage to run the bill up to. ...
Advantages: none Disadvantages: bad jokes from Monkhouse, obvious canned laughter
doubt.
The final end game is where the winner has to get 6 answers from 12 about a subject of their choice. The contestants always seems to have trouble with being able to count up to 6 (they have to run back and hit a plunger to seehow many they have got right, but usually they have only pressed 5 of the options). The prize is a (short) break to a European desination of 'your choice' (i.e. chosen by the BBC before the show).
At the end of the show, Monkhouse usually talks to them about where they went wrong, as the credits and funky BBC production music rolls. However, I sort of get the feeling that instead of saying the right answers, he's telling them how goddamn thick they are, judging by the timidity by which the crestfallen contestant usually looks at him. Either that, or he has a fondness for pickled onions at breakfast ...
