BBC ChoiceNewest Review: ... The only benefit is that she enjoys watching The Tweenies however, if she sees it in the morning, it is repeated in the afternoon and she knows this and is bored by seeing the same programme twice. We do limit her watching to a few shows per day however, the choice for children is difficult when they do allow violence and acts of vandalism or bad behaviour to be part of a childen's ... more More BBC TV channels

I wouldn't recommend BBC Choice for Children shows. My 2yr old daughter does not like the shows. She finds violence offensive and turns the tv off. One show in particular - Bodger and Badger she dislikes so much that if you mention the tv programme she screws her nose up and says 'Yuk, Yuk, Yuk'.

To anyone that has satellite television and misses a lot of programs during the week because of work commitments or hot dates then BBC Choice is ideal. Its definatley a lifesaver for me , as I am the one in our house that gets out of bed with the kids every weekend morning. As soon as I come down stairs with the kids BBC Choice is straight on the telly. Back to back episodes of 'The tweenies' followed by such programs as 'Chuckle Vision' , 'Playdays' and endless kids television from during the week from CBBC all compiled into one seemingly endless show. All that television must be bad for the kids!!! I hear ... Read the complete review

BBC Choice is a free channel on digital tv, we have cable and my children love watching CBBC on Choice. CBBC on Choice is aimed at the younger pre-school children and has a wide range of programmes from cartoons and Bob the Builder to educational programmes like Open the door. CBBC is on Choice from 6am until 7pm when it goes over to more adult programmes like The weekest link and a repeat of Eastenders and lots more. I must admit that I wouldn't watch this channel and I wouldn't know anything about it if it wasn't for the children. Callum is 2 years 8months and Lucy is nearly 10 months they both enjoy watching Teletubbies and ... Read the complete review

I like BBC Choice. This puts me in a minority (of only 14,000 out of the 58 million of us sometimes), but it has the programmes I like to watch, and in the daytime the kids choice is fantastic. My personal viewing favourite has to be Liquid News, with the wonderfully acerbic Christopher Price and various 'celebrity' guests. But there's so many other great programmes (admittedly a lot are repeated), but the proportion of new material is increasing and most of it is of a quality to rival programmes on the main 2 BBC channels. So overall, well done BBC - keep up the good work. ... Read the complete review

BBC CHOICE is the BBC’s digital entertainment channel. It broadcast from 7pm every night, and during the day there are children’s programmes from CBBC. I’m not a huge viewer of the channel, but I do like a few programmes on the channel. Liquid News is my favourite; it’s an entertainment news show covering TV, music and showbiz news. The show is witty, straightforward and interesting. I live in Wales, so I receive BBC CHOICE Wales and this annoys me. There are schedule differences. A new show, which started on BBC CHOICE called “Come Fly with me” was not on the same time on BBC CHOICE Wales, instead there was ... Read the complete review
