Why Dont You


Jaunty, cheesy theme tune, everyone of a certain age should recognise it...

"Why don't you (why don't you)/Why do-on't you (why don't you)/Switch off your TV set/And do something less boring instead?"

A commendable credo. Especially as the programme seemed mostly to concern kids trying to emulate Blue Peter? with the aid of cheap camcorders. Or something. Dear, oh dear...

Post-modern irony at work? Perhaps the idea was to make a TV programme so bad that viewers would switch off their TVs and do something less boring instead? -- WJR
