Dozens of Beeb staff nationwide are expected to dress up as the mascot and his pal Blush for Friday’s TV charity spectacular, hosted by Terry Wogan. The BBC’s guidelines include not initiating hugs because “a handshake or a wave is better”. The bears should also keep hands visible in pictures and never be left alone with children.

published by Hummus on 16 October, 2012 - 17:51

As you may have gathered, Issue 19 is all out of the way and now its time to concentrate on the next issue. Yes, thats ISSUE 20! For this issue, we'll be having an interview section, so obviously we're interested in hearing your suggestions.

So, who do you want The Revival Team to interview? Whose opinions on certain topics would you like to know? What makes this person special? Which person have you met or heard of, who has impacted you and society in general? Is there somebody you look upto as an inspiration and are they one of your many role models? Who is this 'someone' you'd love to know more about?

So, all i'm asking you to do is to tell me who you'd like to hear from. Who do you think we should interview and if possible, what should we ask them?
