Cbeebies are advertising interactive games on digital TV, but there is
no sign of them on Freeview, is this like the 6 screen News service they
are advertising, i.e. only for Sky subscribers?

Have you tried pressing red?

My daughter found these for herself this weekend (Bob the Builder, etc?).
Beats me where, but we have Freeview and no wok. I've also watched something
that sounds suspiciously like the `6 screen News service' you mention.

Maybe I should hand the remote over to our 2 year old, cos I can't find
them...

You do need to be on channel 31 when you press red, they're either not
available or not easy to find direct from BBCi on other channels

I found them now. I think the games are not available when a Cbeebies
programme has its own interactive content, and that's why I couldn't
find them before.

Which CBeebies programmes have their own interactive content? Can't say
I've seen it mentioned...

Hwyl!

Can't remember what we were watching at the time, but you definitely get
"press red" coming up sometimes, and then a different text menu. I will
look out for them now. Not that I spend all day watching Cbeebies or
anything like that, no, now when's Balamory on next...

The ads for the games show different games to those available on
Freeview, I presume there is a larger range of games on satellite.

Replying to my own post... (sorry), Tikkabilla has "press red"
interactive content.
