What do you all think of her? Not seen a lot of her yet so not formed any opinion.

I think she seems good. Natural, smiley. A million times better than Katie, so hope she's replacing her on the links with Sid etc.

What's her name? DS keeps asking me and I don't know.

She seems okay...

Her name is Cat and she used to be in Hi 5. Took me ages to figure out where I knew her from.

Not fussed tbh. Just another gurning stage school type

DH doesn't like her. He reckons she's an interloper and wondered why she dared to interrupt our viewing.

I think he's a little too emotionally involved with cbeebies for a grown adult.

Cat... Right! Must remember for next time DS asks.

She seems to be in the 'trying hard' stage but I do like her. I quite like Katie too though (and I know most MNers don't)... Sid, Andy, Kerry and Alex will always remain my favourites, I hope none of them are leaving.

Hi 5!! That's where I know her from! I also think she's trying too hard but we're probably all guilty of that when we start a new job Smile

According to the Cbeebies blog Sid's off in March so I'm assuming Cat is his replacement Sad.

I am also way too involved though, when I saw they had a new person starting I actually panicked in case Alex was leaving!

I like Alex's face very much. I don't fancy him, but I love his sparkly eyes and gentle manner, and think he's an excellent choice for kids tv. Awwwww!!

Sid was on Celebrity Mastermind over Christmas - must be looking for ways to branch out from CBeebies.

I`m glad Sids leaving, hope he manages to make a career in mainstream (if thats what he wants to do), I think hes rather lovely Smile

Sid's touring his own kids show in theatres this year. I like the girl who is in that show they do together 'Let's Play' or something? On about 2.30 when I am usually sleeping watching with DD.

On the bright side, maybe we will see more of Sid on grown up TV. Wink

She's doing pretty well -- most of them were HORRIBLY wooden at first and took a couple of months to settle down, while she's already sounding quite natural (if just a little hyper). But whatever will we do without Sid? Shock

Cherrypie32, yes, Rebecca -- I hope we see more of her.

(Random fact: Sid's name is actually Gary (I think; it's something beginning with a G that isn't anything like Sid, anyway))

Katy grew on me eventually. I like her a lot now, and wish she was on a bit more.

I'm glad I've not seen Neesha in a while, she was irritating.

Cat seems very nice so far :)

Ok, I will amend my post to....
