Transmission Impossible With Ed and Oucho was a fun CBBC show. It starred Ed Petrie and Oucho T. Cactus. The show was filmed at Pinewood Studios. It first aired on May 16, 2009. You could watch it every Saturday morning on BBC Two. It also aired on Sunday mornings on the CBBC Channel. There were 26 episodes in total. The show finished on August 9, 2009. This was so Ed and Oucho could start filming the second series of their other show, Excellent Inventions.
What the Show Was About
The idea behind the show was that Ed and Oucho were "hacking" into your TV! They did this from their blimp high in the sky. They would take over from another show called The Krazey, Krazey, Krazey, Krazey, Krazey, Krazey, Krazey Show with Kaptain Krazey and Nigel Smith. Kaptain Krazey was a puppet pirate who only said "ooh aar." Nigel Smith was actually Ed Petrie wearing a blonde wig.
In each Saturday episode, their blimp would start to lose height. To fix this, they had to push one of their four "stowaways" off the blimp. The stowaways would play funny games. These games, like "Oucho's lossoli (Lovely) quiz," decided who got pushed off. They also decided if the person got a parachute or not!
