Title - Kids' Norfolk

You call the shots: Simon Thomas answers
blue peter team.

Question 1
How did you feel on your first day as a Blue Peter presenter?
Bethanie, aged 10, of Co. Durham

Simon: Although it seems a long time ago now, I remember feeling very excited on my first day (I hardly slept the night before) because it had taken me quite a few attempts to get the job. I was also very nervous as this was the first time I had ever had a presenting job on 'live' TV.

Question 2
Blue Peter is famous for its summer holiday adventures. If one summer the team were to come to Norfolk, which places would you want them to visit?
Natasha, of Great Yarmouth, age 13

Simon: I'd like them to visit Cromer, because that's where I lived 'til I was 3, and my gran lived there also. I'd like them to visit Norwich and see the castle and the Forum. I'd take them to the Broads, to Blakeney to go and look for Sea Lions and Seals, and finally I'd take them round to my house in Trowse for a bit of dinner!


Question 3
Did you find the commentating hard, and what was Roy Waller like?
Sam, of Norwich, age 13

Simon: Yes commentating was very hard. I'd never done it before at a live game, and keeping up with the play was really difficult. But Roy Waller is a really nice chap and he was great at giving me lots of helpful advice, even when I got the Crewe goal scorer wrong.


Question 4
If you were stuck in a lift, which celebrity would you most want to be with?
Claire, aged 9, of Bath

Simon: The celebrity I would most like to be stuck in a lift with is Alistair McGowan (impressionist). I'd ask him to keep me amused with loads of impressions while we waited for the lift to be fixed!

Question 5
What was your toughest challenge on Blue Peter and why?
Matthew, of Devon, aged 11

Simon: My toughest challenge so far on Blue Peter has been learning how to escape from a submarine. Although it was in a simulator, the dangers were the same, and if I had got it wrong I could have done myself a very serious injury or worse. It was very nerve-wracking and a massive challenge.
