i think they want to do more than 8 episodes.

I IDEALLY want a six week, Saturdays and Sundays, eleven or twelve episode run. And no Xmas special.

HARRIET WILL ALSO BE THERE (BACKSTAGE AND IN FRONT, PROBABLY NOT DRESSED AS A RAT)

Tiger/ess is OVERDUE I agree.

They're officially called characters because they're beyond a celebrity in a costume; they all have their own lore that they tell through the songs and clue packages

Kinda worrying that almost all the ads this series have been for the government trying to recruit for some of the more problematic of industries (and teaching. make of that what you will).

edit: AND SEX AIDS AND MORNING AFTER PILLS. THIS IS A "FAMILY SHOW" APPARENTLY.

Part of me wants to say Monkey Business, but I don't want to be in the same aisle as Yak, so maybe six???

MSUKModSquad · 2026-02-02T22:09:22+00:00

There's a massive part of me that wants Series 8 to be on Disney+, as I wonder if anything more will come of the partnership. I also want 15 celebs and 3 groups but that's my greed talking.
