On 22 April 2000 the first edition of FBi (which stood for Fully Booked Interactive) broadcast live on BBC1 Saturday mornings. Vernon Kay, Keith Duffy and Kate Heavenor presented the single series. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/LN7tFeB3IVQ

On 21 April 1996 the second series of Fully Booked began, and with it several 'firsts'. The first programme for new presenter Sarah Vandenbergh, the first series to be pre-recorded 'as live' and first to broadcast on Sunday morning. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/LRtaIo3y120

28 years ago today on 18 April 1998 the fifth series of Live & Kicking came to an end. Guests included Boyzone and Alan Hansen, and there was a special 'live action' version of Grabbit Rabbit! #saturdaymornings youtu.be/_3NiX3JOxYo

Going Live! started on 26 September 1987 replacing Saturday SuperStore. It came to an end after 174 live programmes on 17 April 1993. This is the last programme broadcast 33 years ago today. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/5C2VlnmcNBs

We loved Trev and Simon's shop based sketches - Ted and Eddie Kennedy, Dougie and Don Draper, Richard and Roger Roberts, and Jim and Tom Jones. Jim and Tom Jones? Yes, Jim and Tom Jones the Chemists. Here's the sketch from the duo's one-off Summer Special programme in 1995. youtu.be/b3ktHM3qypY

Better late than never! We've been very busy today but didn't want to miss this one. 30 years ago today was the last L&K of series 3, Andi's last show (Emma's as well it turned out). Loads of surprises for Andi including the Leprechauns' Time Machine! youtu.be/gmPKqCEgr1w

Did we forget to mention that the new Live & Kicking mug comes in two sizes? #saturdaymornings

Love the brand new Live & Kicking mug that's available from the BBC Shop as part of their 'Playback' range, but nowhere near as good as the originals! #saturdaymornings

BBC Choice launched on 23/09/1998 and one of the new programmes it carried was L&K Replay, an edited version of the day's main programme. This is the first documented edition of the programme that was broadcast on 17/10/1998. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/x9_q7gMpKTE

A little Friday fun... Live & Kicking on 9 December 1995, Phillip Schofield is a guest that morning and about to sing a song from Joseph, or is he..? Swing your pants... #saturdaymornings

We wondered why the first Live & Kicking's credits had no Editor/Copyright end board - this short video shows that it did, but just wasn't broadcast! And, did you ever spot that John Barrowman changed his clothes during the programme? #saturdaymornings

Bank Holiday Monday Bonus! The edition of Live & Kicking from 10 January 1998. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/5gocbCmDTvQ

A Saturday bonus... Live & Kicking from 2 October 1999 - the first time we've posted an episode from the Steve/Emma era. youtu.be/Hva_r-kQmos

Sad to hear of the reported demise of the last fragments of CITV that were broadcast on ITV2. At the same time it’s good to see new children’s programming being announced this week for CBBC and CBeebies. www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/...

The Trev and Simon 'Like to Discuss' sketch we posted last week was actually a follow-up to the previous week's 'Invisible Pets' phone in. We've dipped into our archive and found the first sketch that went out on 20 March 1993. #saturdaymornings

It's the final L&K Friday of the first series from 3 April 1998, B*Witched are in the studio to chat and sing. We'll move on to the second series later in the year. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/v4MYYK0iVsM

The BBC Shop has launched a 'Live & Kicking Collection' which has several retro-inspired items of clothing and accessories available to purchase. shop.bbc.com/collections/live-kicking

It's April Fools Day, so think twice before you believe anything you read especially on social media! On 1 April 1995 Live & Kicking had three stories which were a little far fetched, here's the part from the following week's programme where they came clean. #saturdaymornings

Scott Chisholm who starred in the BBC's Future Generations promo visited the L&K studio on 23 January 1999 and gave us a look behind the scenes of the film. He would go on to appear on L&K until the end of the series. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/8YYADQP4CMQ

Our usual public service reminder that British Summer Time starts at 1am tomorrow morning, so remember to put your clocks FORWARD tonight. #saturdaymornings

In case you haven't managed to watch the edition of Going Live! we posted earlier today, here's the part where Trev and Simon open the phone lines to see what you would 'Like to Discuss'. #saturdaymornings

We've dug out an edition of Going Live! from our archive originally broadcast 33 YEARS ago on 27 March 1993. Hulk Hogan, Gloria Estefan, Gaby Roslin and Chris Evans were guests. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/gSxNy19rnlA

Our usual public service reminder that British Summer Time starts at 1am tomorrow morning, so remember to put your clocks FORWARD tonight. #saturdaymornings

We've moving towards the tail end of the first series of L&K Friday. On the programme broadcast on 20 March 1998 the guests joining Zoe and Jamie were boy band Five. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/FPWJEHJJaVk

Are you ready to run again? #saturdaymornings youtu.be/vye8NqA9RlQ

As we mentioned Fully Booked earlier, here's the earliest recording we have in our archive. The second programme from series 1 broadcast on 29 April 1995. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/9e2R7WsFLgE

It's the last Live & Kicking of series 2, Grant Stott and Zoe Ball have dropped in to the studio to trail the brand new Saturday morning programme for the summer - Fully Booked. #saturdaymornings

We thought we would take you back to 24 September 1994 today for the first programme of the second series of Live & Kicking. Some of the features we knew and loved from L&K started here, including the RugRats and the phone jingle. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/NKDmoA05jyU

Continuing our run through the first series of L&K Friday we've reached 13 March 1998 - just 28 years ago! #saturdaymornings youtu.be/QUbX8X69pHo

Hello, do you like cartoons? We do. #saturdaymornings

It's business as normal for The Singing Corner on the 4 November 1989 edition of Going Live! when Barbara Windsor (and not the Queen) joins Don and Bob for a song. #saturdaymornings

We've haven't done one of these for a few months, so why not take a while to relive the (almost) complete edition of Live & Kicking from this day (7 March) in 1998. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/iVmHfKaUo5g

L&K Friday from 6 March 1998 has an antipodean feel as Jamie and Zoe were joined in studio 6 by Kylie Minogue. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/0Oa1u512nMw

It's time to play Blob A Job on 3 October 1998's L&K, and Jamie is about to experience the nightmare of a competition phone out on live television going horribly, horribly wrong. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/T9MZEvDEuUc

At 8.25 on 26 September 1987, Saturday Starts Here made its debut to fill the hour or so before the start of the first Going Live! This featured the first appearance of Trev & Simon, carrying a shark naturally, and again during the following link where the sound dropped off.

Give us a call on... 01 288 8055 Yes, really. What do you mean you're not old enough to remember the first phone number? #saturdaymornings

Who remembers Dave and Steve from the People's Institute that featured on Going Live!? Well, they may have just the ideal self-help package for you - 'You Can Memorise It' - at a bargain price! #saturdaymornings youtu.be/qxXqdKyoMZM

Here's another Saturday morning L&K trailer, this time from 25 February 1995. There's 25 seconds of pre-broadcast footage on this one with the BBC1 network audio, and also an appearance from 'The Boss'... #saturdaymornings

Live & Kicking + Friday = L&K Friday Here's the latest edition from the first series of L&K Friday, ventriloquist Paul Zerdin was the studio guest on 27 February 1998. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/fPRHEpS1D1E

After we dug out the intro yesterday, here's the full version of the first edition of Electric Circus from Live & Kicking on 19 February 1994. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/F5JAmP-VeOU

It's Saturday, good choice... #saturdaymornings

Here's something from deep in our archive, the introduction from the very first Electric Circus that was part of Live & Kicking on 19 February 1994 with the titles reimagining Television Centre as the circus. #saturdaymornings

L&K Friday - The weekend's just begun, at least it had back in 1998! Guests on L&K Friday from 20 February 1998 were Ellie Beaven who played Natalie in The Wild House and Swedish pop star Robyn. #saturdaymornings youtu.be/b_gCfQwyuJo
