Info

Live & Kicking was a BBC Saturday morning children's magazine programme, running from 1993 to 2001. The fourth in a succession of Saturday morning shows, it was the replacement for Going Live!, and took many of its features from it, such as phone-ins, games, comedy, competitions and the showing of cartoons. Once Live & Kicking had become established in series two, it reached its height in popularity during series four, when it was presented by Zoë Ball and Jamie Theakston; their final episode won a BAFTA award. After this the series ratings dropped with the launch of SMTV Live on ITV and was eventually cancelled in 2001.

Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
mrs_johnny_d I think Live & Kicking was a generation thing. You had to grow up with it, and you had to learn to love the presenters. The best presenters were Zoe Ball and Jamie Theakston, but Andi Peters and Emma Forbes were brilliant as well. Live and Kicking made getting up early on Saturday worth it. The crazy segments and shows were great. Watching your favourite stars mess about and get gunged was fantastic for a four year old. Mr Blobby was always part of the show and seeing him mess around and make the presenters lives hell was hilarious. The segments where Jamie Theakston would show your bedroom or embarrass you for no reasons were the best bits because you always worried that your parents might put you on there.
words_like_violence_brea Where did great Saturday morning go? Its as if the greatest shows on earth suddenly became locked in a fire-balling frenzy or fear and sucked beneath the earth in an almighty ....dripI mean we got some alrightish stuff now (like dick and dom) but nothing compares to the good olde, good old days!Zoe Ball was an amazing presenter so full of life so..... kicking? Where did she go I know she has probably been on loads of stuff since but nothing quite as fun filled as live and kicking, what a disappointment.I think they should reinvent live and kicking possibly to a late night cable channel (possibly an illegal one) that nobody has and change the name to Live and Hoping: For Freedom....and should be about people in a deep well struggling for life, having to turn on each other to survive. last one alive wins!
Jackson Booth-Millard When I first saw this Saturday morning show, or rather caught bits of it, I first thought it was some kind of sports programme. Then after a couple of other bits I discovered that it was more for kids than adults because there were obvious things to spot. These kinds of things involved kids TV presenters like that really nice black guy who had a teary quit, two Irish puppets, the Rugrats on, and many other things. To be honest I only watched bits of it when I felt like it. When I saw the teary goodbye from the black guy on Greatest Kids TV Moments, I didn't realise he like his job that much! But anyway, what I saw of this show was not bad. Pretty okay!
ross robinson I remember when Live and Kicking first started in 1993. Every saturday morning this was on BBC ONE. There was alsorts when this was on, I remember before it's finish there use to have the simpsons on. i think that was on in 2000 or maybe in 1999. I also remember when they advertise the songs that were going to be on the top 40, and the celebs had to use the big hands to say if they think that the record will be a HIT, a MISS, or a MAYBE.
