Tweenies - Live [VHS] [1999]

Jake, Milo, Bella and Fizz sing catchy songs, dance and play games--to the obvious and noisy delight of their young fans in the audience. The camera cuts from the action on stage to the excited "Tweenieboppers" in the crowd who clap, shout, sing, dance and even "moo" on cue.

Doodles, Max and Judy also put in appearances, providing the quieter moments. The big screen over the stage brings a fresh element to the show and is used to great effect, as when Max sings his song and a film clip of four children appears on screen to demonstrate the accompanying actions to the audience.

After more games and songs, including a rousing all-singing, all-dancing finale, the Tweenies board their spaceship, waving and cheering and leave the arena in a cloud of smoke.

Tweenies Live is a high-energy, feel-good video that children over the age of two will want to watch again and again. The combination of music and dance with interaction and games is irresistible, while the enraptured expressions on the faces of the younger members of the audience are priceless. --Helen Baker
