Synopsis
This ran in the early hours of GMTV. The gameplay saw a number of kids aged about 6-9 set word related challenges - putting letters in alphabetical order and so forth. The prizes were rather unappetising looking biscuits cut in the shape of letters.
Tragically, given that the children exhibited a look of resigned depression that was almost zoological, they obviously had difficulty finding kids to go on and the same kids would reappear day after day.
The show had a very small budget, and may have been produced as a franchise commitment from the breakfast company - in the days before Teletubbies, children's programming was a loss-leader.

Trivia
The show was taken off the air because of a trademark dispute over the title name.
