On Safari is a children's TV show made by SMG Productions for the ITV network children's strand CITV. The show was re-broadcast on STV in 2009 as part of their weekend children's strand wknd@stv.
The show was presented by Richard McCourt and featured two teams of two children taking part in a series of challenges and tasks within a safari park, including animal-care and physical skill challenges; the winning team took part in an endgame to win a prize.
Caribou Kitchen is a CITV children's cartoon, that ran from 1995 to 1998 about an anthropomorphic caribou named Claudia who ran a restaurant which served a number of animal guests, including Mrs. Panda, Caroline Cow and Taffy Tiger. Other recurring supporting characters included chef Ade the Anteater, and waiters Lisa the Lemur and Tom the Tortoise. Each of the 52 episodes lasted ten minutes and intended to teach its preschool audiences important lessons. The rights to the show are owned by Entertainment Rights.
Crazy Cottage was a children's game show created by Paul Zenon, produced by Action Time for Carlton and broadcast on ITV from 4 April 1996 to 29 May 1998. It was first presented by Rick Adams, followed by Jez Edwards with a puppet cuckoo called Vera. The gimmick of the show was that most things had to be performed backwards.
The show started with the presenter saying "goodbye", then starting the games at Round 5. One of the rounds involved a series of actions that had to be performed in a certain order, so that when it was played back in reverse, it matched what they were asked to do. Another round was a kitchen set up on a slope, but appeared to the viewers as a normal room.
At the end of the programme, the winning team won a prize, such as a trip to Alton Towers. The losing team would win a backwards invention, for example, a black lightbulb.
