Blue Peter's My Little Pony The Movie Competition

Wouldn't it be great if Blue Peter did a My Little Pony: The Movie contest to celebrate the film's release in 2017? In the contest, you can design your own My Little Pony character for a chance to win these awesome prizes: a tour behind the scenes of the movie to see their character being made, merchandise or a chance to voice a character on Friendship Is Magic. Sadly, Friendship Is Magic has stopped producing new episodes, but still, it sounds like a great idea to me.

Shows To Watch To Avoid A Kind Of Spark & Dragon Quest: The Adventures Of Dai

Teletubbies is one of the many shows you can watch to avoid watching CBBC's new Americanised drama A Kind Of Spark and its new Japanese anime series Dragon Quest: The Adventures Of Dai. If you want to avoid presenters screaming at you to "No scratch that watch iPlayer!" and widescreen dramas, here are a few shows you can watch according to Brunia to avoid such a disastrous turn of events for this dying children's channel.
  • The Story Of Tracy Beaker
  • Horrible Histories
  • The Sarah Jane Adventures
  • Blue Peter (classic episodes on Youtube only)
  • The Worst Witch
  • The Secret Show
  • Raven
  • Tweenies
  • Andy's Dinosaur Adventures
  • Balamory
  • Come Outside
  • Chucklevision
  • Crackerjack (the old series, not the 2020 series)
  • Grange Hill

Share The Fantasy


My support worker and I had a wonderful time playing Don't Panic today. I ate sausage rolls, cheese and crackers and drank lovely purple Vimto. I enjoyed watching my support worker play with her cat Putzell, who in turn bit her hand and loved to be annoyed. My favourite parts of the Don't Panic game we played today were the Women's Perfumes bit (because I guessed Shalimar), the TV police dramas bit (because one of the dramas I guessed was McDonald & Dodds, which starred Cleo's voice actress Tala Gouveia) and naming all the dwarves in Snow White's story. Oh boy, was this fun or what?
BLUEY: "You bet it is!"
As we left for home, we saw Putzell in a hunting position. We had to be careful, or she wouldn't get flattened like a pancake in the middle of the road. I have a lot to talk about. And I just did!

Advice For Sailing In Cake

If you want to row boats on cake just like Norm in today's Norman Picklestripes, here's some funny advice to live by and do so:
  • Avoid rocky shores or else your cake will crumble to bits.
  • Bring a milk keg just in case we hit any dry cake spots.
  • Be careful - you might get frosting in your hair!
  • Never let seagulls come eating your cat in case it's their birthday.
  • If you encounter an accident, eat your way to safety.

Dragonwatch

Luke, Resus, Cleo and I are watching Dragon Tales on TV, describing how wonderful and colourful those dragons are, and maybe even harmless too, wheras in other TV series dragons breathe fire to destroy buildings. We are unaware that Cassie, the pink dragon from the show, is watching our conversation through the window outside.

  • Scrumptious
