    The original Bernard's Watch

    I remember Bernard's watch coming on Citv ages ago,thinking and what a good programme that it was. It was original,well-written and included some excellent acting from David Peachey as Bernard. The plot line was basically about a young boy,around 10 or 11 who found a watch that stops time.We saw him come to terms with this,and how he used his power for good.However,trouble came for Bernard when it seemed that he's not the only one who knows about his secret... Bernard's watch is a fun programme for young and old alike,however it doesn't air any more on Citv.There has recently been a new series which i have to admit isn't as good.The original will reign!If you can find episodes of this then i heartily recommend watching it as it is a great family programme and will have you thinking 'what would i do if i could stop time?...'.

    good programme

    i remembered watching Bernard's Watch. Bernard had a gold watch and everytime he pressed it everything froze, including the people such as his friends and others. I give this programme a not so bad score of 6 out of 10.

    the new series is crap!

    i used to actually like this show but now they have 'updated' it and its terrible. its just a load of brats running around causing mayhem. While in the old series bernard helped people with his watch the new bernard just helps himself. The acting has never been great but now it sucks. Stay well away from this show, we don't want another series being released!

    Bernards Watch 1997-2004

    I remember Bernard's watch coming on Citv ages ago,thinking and what a good programme that it was. It was original,well-written and included some excellent acting from David Peachey as Bernard. The plot line was basically about a young boy,around 10 or 11 who found a watch that stops time.We saw him come to terms with this,and how he used his power for good.However,trouble came for Bernard when it seemed that he's not the only one who knows about his secret... Bernard's watch is a fun programme for young and old alike,however it doesn't air any more on Citv.There has recently been a new series which i have to admit was superb for the modern day children. It involved the same idea just with other characters and had greater effects. And Bernard was more craft and cheeky.The original will reign!If you can find episodes of this then i heartily recommend watching it as it is a great family programme and will have you thinking 'what would i do if i could stop time?...'.

    Pure Nostalgia

    I recently watched this again, and at 33. Haha. Oh man it was so cheesy. But what wonderful memories I had. Took me back to the best time ever. I was the same age as the actor who played bernard. Well from 1997 - 2001 was the best ones. It failed when it changed the actors. Especially bernard. Imagine this being made now. But an older bernard. And less cheesy. But I don't mind it in all honesty. But I think it would be good. Seeing the 90s style and outfits I'd wear was just a flash back into time. They played a game on an episode I forgot about. Happy families. Guessing the cards your opponents had. I'd gladly go back to the 90s any day. Children shows ain't as magical as this one was.
