Love the way the BBC press office doesn't even know when the original series was on. "First aired over a decade ago" they say ... try 1998, nearer 2 decades ago. It was actually canned a little over a decade ago, when Channel 5 cancelled it. Press release was probably written by someone who was in nappies at the time though.

On a lighter note, I can't wait for this and my kids will be delighted too. We saw a couple of eps on Challenge the other week and they absolutely loved it.
