A look at what's in the news around the world.
Professor Strange
This popular show is about a man who travels through time
and space. Professor Strange (no-one knows his real name)
is 1,000 years old, but he looks much younger. Every week,
he goes to a different time, or place, meeting aliens and
fighting monsters. This is a low-budget British programme,
and the special effects aren't as good as big Hollywood films,
but the stories are always much more interesting.
The $1,000,000 Quiz
No-one has won the big million-dollar prize yet, perhaps
because the host, Nick Parsons, asks the most complicated
questions on TV. Most contestants leave with nothing.
Star in my car
Neil Smith drives around Los Angeles in a big car. Inside is
a camera, and a celebrity! They sing along to the radio. It's
not as boring as it sounds. Neil asks much more interesting
questions than other presenters ask.
X
The Sound
Every week, contestants get the chance to sing in front of
celebrity singers. Some contestants have got talent - but many
haven't. The winner of the show gets a recording contract.
Nutty Antiques
This comedy is about a group of people who work in a shop,
selling old furniture. It's far funnier than anything else on TV.
The best character is Mrs Macaroon, the cleaner, who breaks
everything.
I want to go home!
Ten celebrities are on an island in the middle of nowhere, with
no electricity, or network coverage. They have to find their
own food and cook it. It's great to see them have arguments
- and they often do! All the celebrities want to go home, but
you can go online and vote for the celebrity you want to keep
on the island!
Old Bernard's Balloon
This is easily the best kid's show on TV. Bernard tells stories
about how he flies around in a balloon, meeting his friends
Russell the dragon and Jack the parrot. It's beautifully animated.
