I don't think KYTV is a pun on Sky TV. US TV stations mostly start with K; the KY probably refers to KY jelly. DJ Clayworth

On closer inspection I think I may be wrong on the above. DJ Clayworth

It says in the first episode about wanting to call it after Sir Kenneth Yellowhammer, and then shows a graphics of KYS TV.

The name KY TV was DEFINITELY meant as a parody of Sky TV. The KY TV logo was virtually identical to Sky's logo at the time (bold capital letters inside a thick circle). Also, it's a British programme making fun of a British satellite service, so US TV station names would be irrelevant. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.146.46.247 (talk) 16:18, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re the 'were the revised repeats in 2002 actually revised?' question. Out of Your Depth for example had a different musical parody from the one included in the origination. Guyalsfere

Show

What about the nickelodeon radio active tv show?

Season listed as being on Radio 2

There is a season that's listed as being on Radio 2, but my cassette recordins of the series have Radio 4 handovers. Briantist 00:02, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

IIRC, It was originally broadcast on Radio 4 at 12:30 on Saturday afternoons.

... at around the same time BBC Radio 1 was broadcasting the Adrian Juste show - which started at 1:00 pm Saturdays, and so if one remembered to re-tune, one could listen to both. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.4.57.101 (talk) 18:28, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Episode list

I put the old episode list (see [1]) into a wikitable (see [2]) which was recently reverted by User:Briantist without out any comment other than describing it as 'vandalism'. I'm guessing that he didn't like the non-linked dates, so I've put the table back here with the dates linked. TimR 12:38, 26 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Added Internal Links

I have added Internal Links to Australia and Down Under and various other links. Kathleen.wright5 15:32, 24 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The mysterious 2 January 1988 programme

According the Guardian radio listings, the only Radio Active show on 2 January 1988 was "Radio Active's Radio Radio Programme", which was on BBC Radio 2 from 1-1.30 PM. This is the episode title for s7e2 so it appears to have been an isolated repeat. Sam Blacketer (talk) 00:10, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Lascivia

The article refers to 'Luscivia' of the Radio Active shop - I always thought her name was 'Lascivia' < 'lascivious'. Do any other readers concur? Guyal of Sfere (talk) 22:00, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I think Luscivia is how it was spelt in the tie-in book. I'll look it out tomorrow and check. --Walnuts go kapow (talk) 22:18, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I hadn't forgotten, but the book wasn't where I thought it was! Anyway, it does say Luscivia. Could be a retcon, admitttedly. --Walnuts go kapow (talk) 07:53, 23 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
