This show was nominated for a BAFTA in 1998. CITV series (2004) In 2004, CITV commissioned an updated version of the show featuring an all-new cast. The CITV series featured a format that was similar to other children's music shows like Hi-5, and the episodes lasted at a shorter 10 minute length instead of the previous 20-minute length. The cast members in this version used acting names instead of their real names, with the characters being Melody (Laura Hamilton), OJ and Cookie (Chris Till and Aston Merrygold, the latter later of the boyband JLS), Paige (Polly Parsons) and Cal (Kerry Newell). Ozzy Octave and the paint pots were the only characters who returned for the series, with Ozzy now voiced by Justin Fletcher. A new character was also introduced, Ozzy's nephew named Harry (voiced by Jane H. Pickworth).
