See It Saw It was a fun children's game show that aired on BBC One. It was all about a king who ruled a happy land called "Much Jollity-on-the-Mirth." The show ran from January 1999 to March 2001.
The show was filmed in a studio with a live audience of children. During the show, the King would ask the audience questions. They would answer by climbing onto a giant see-saw! The way the see-saw tipped showed what most of the audience thought. The main catchphrase of the show was the King asking, "Did you see it?" and the audience shouting back, "We saw it!"
