This programme is awful example of the bias the Manchester media holds over my city.that of Liverpool. Has liverpool wronged them at some time? ITV are one of those who likes to jump on the lets pull Liverpool down band wagon. It is promoted as a comedy.

Take the Telle character,we are meant to laugh at her predicament yet that is what most girls in Liverpool are like,no escape. Or our home-grown Jonathan Vegas as a Jabba the Hut style moron. This is trying to say that people from Liverpool in particular make Rik Waller look thin.

please ITV,reason these things before you make them. A proud and true scouser.

This show is usually on Children's BBC in the morning in Britain, and, considering most of the garbage that's shown these days, it should be shown later when more people can see it. The cast are adequate for their given roles, the stories admittedly, are well written and know what buttons to push, in the right order, delivering many clever twists and turns. But one person sticks out in this: Wayne's mother, Rainee Skinner.

In my mind, she is one of the most beautiful, attractive actresses I have seen on a children's programme. She is so cool as well, and sort of anchors the show in realism whereas without her it would lose it's reality. I mean, in the first episode, the way she turns the rules of the manifesto inside out is extremely devious, as it seems to be so well written and infallible, yet she finds holes and uses them to her advantage.

Rainee should be on more programmes. If I were to make films, I would write parts for her and Nancy Allen straight away.

If anyone has info on her, e-mail me?

I do not believe that nobody can remember this excellent See-saw programme of the early '80s! It was so colourful and trippy, and I looked forward to seeing it every Wednesday (although it was so long ago, I can remember even what day it was on). I was born in 1980, so I must've watched the repeats.

From the suspiciously Paul Macartney soundalike singing the theme tune, which was sung jazzily and monotone at the same time, and from excellent characters, like long distance Clara (a very pretty long distance driver, like Denzil from Fools and Horses, yet possibly the first female to EVER take up a job like this) to the Jamaican style window cleaner (Forgot his name though I loved his stripey hat, I could almost eat the candy colours off it)! The pet shop owner with the parrot (it might've been a budgie though)and a moustache was one of my favourites.

The guy who held it together was the narrator, George Layton. His voice is instantly recognisable, distinguised yet comforting. I can only remember his voice in it, even playing the girl characters.

Forget inane jumbled up childrens silliness such as the Teletubbies and their rip-offs, the Tweenies. This MUST be re-shown. I have a feeling if it does it could be remade and turned into a cult classic
