Personal stories
Description
Personal and health issues are highlighted in the three stories in this programme. In the first story, My Fit Family , Daisy persuades her step-dad to give up smoking so the whole family can reap the benefits of joining a gym. Daisy learns that to burn off the calories in a packet of crisps you have to skip for 20 minutes, and that to do the same after drinking a bottle of cola, you d have to row for 35 minutes. Big School Blues features Moss Hey Primary School in Stockport, where pupils voice their worries about going to big school. They spend a day at nearby Bramhall High to see what it's like for themselves and are given the chance to ask questions like Will I get my head pushed down the toilet?. In Our Meal Deal , twins Sam and Nathan make a video diary about what they eat and tell us about the pact they have made with their mother to achieve a balanced diet.
