BAMZOOKi
BAMZOOKi is
a brand new game show on The CBBC Channel where contestants make
and race computer generated creatures.
Teams of children
from all over the UK have been challenged to create running, jumping
and crawling Zooks on their computers.
The
best Zooks will be selected and - using cutting edge software and
virtual 3D studio technology - visualised for the show, presented
by CBBC's Jake Humphrey.
The
Zooks will be put to the test against each other in tasks including
climbing over obstacles, moving around objects and sprinting, so
choosing the best Zook for the right event is critical. (KH)
Beckham's
Hotshots
CBBC has been
granted exclusive access to the Real Madrid player and England captain
as he settles into his new club in Spain.
A phenomenal
CBBC competition will give several lucky CBBC viewers the chance
to fly out to Madrid to train with their hero.
The
winners will be filmed with their soccer hero for The CBBC Channel's
exclusive series, Beckham's Hotshots, in which the England Captain
will pass on his soccer skills, tricks and tips to CBBC viewers.
The
series will also gives Beckham fans a fun, fact-packed low-down
on one of the world's greatest footballers.
A CBBC
Production for The CBBC Channel. (KH)
Best
Of Friends
Best
Of Friends is a show with one group of friends, two presenters,
three mystery treats, three mystery tasks, two magical days and
it's brand new for The CBBC Channel.
A group
of five friends are collected in the Best Of Friends people carrier
and are taken off on a two day magical tour.
They
undertake the amigOmeter test to find out how solid their friendship
really is and then the tasks begin.
The
challenges could be anything difficult or horrible like answering
100 maths questions in 90 minutes, whereas the treats could be as
fantastic as pony trekking, ice skating or meeting a pop group.
The true test
of their friendship will be in their final task - will they leave
some of the group to face the worse task alone or will they stick
together as a team?
Best
Of Friends is presented by Michael Absalom – aka Abs to regular
CBBC viewers – and CBBC new-comer, Rani Khanijau.
It
is a Talent TV production for the CBBC Channel. (NR)
