S4C . The show is the channel's flagship youth magazine, and was first broadcast in September 1994. It has since undergone many changes to its format and presenting team.The show is broadcast from a purpose built house in a studio in Caernarfon, and features celebrity guests, news items, lively chat, bands, sketches and filmed interviews. Despite the obvious ties to "
The Big Breakfast ", the show originally had more in common with the BBC's "Blue Peter ", until it later relaunched and currently appeals to an older, teenage audience.As of 2008, the show is broadcast twice a week for an hour on Wednesday and Friday evenings at 6:00pm.
