Bug Alert

Bug Alert is a British children's television series, first shown on GMTV in September 1996.

It featured the antics of a range of bug-like characters who lived in the kitchen of an unnamed house.

In the final series, the characters moved out of the house and opened a somewhat seedy restaurant ("Bug Bites") where they set about serving Weasel Curry to their regular clientele.

78 episodes were made in total and were repeated regularly on GMTV, Tiny Living[1] and Channel 4 between 1996 and 2004.

The 78 30-minute scripts were co-written by the director Peter Eyre and the main puppeteer, Francis Wright.
