[TheGingerninja5]

[WhovianWaterlooRoad]

I've got the Blue, Silver and Green badges and am soooo happy with them!!

[lukefeedback]

[TVCriticAmy]

@lukefeedback Ah, I'd just turned 18 in this video..and I'm nearly 20 now. Goodness!x

[TheGingerninja5]

how long does it take to get one

[TVCriticAmy]

@TheGingerninja5 Could be weeks, or months, or just depends on how many entries there are. With the move to Salford, I'm not too sure what's happening with all the post!x

[M4sterCh3if1]

thanks for your advice TVCriticAmy i finally got my blue peter badge and badge card!!!FEW LOL.

[TVCriticAmy]

@M4sterCh3if1 So happy for you!x

[seaco33]

Bravery after getting run over by a bus...long story!

[WhovianWaterlooRoad]

@seaco33 That's really interesting! I'd carry it to my grave!

[TVCriticAmy]

@seaco33 Aw xx

[seaco33]

I received a gold Blue Peter badge when I was 13... 1976

[WhovianWaterlooRoad]

@seaco33 Really? What for?

[TVCriticAmy]

@seaco33 Envious of the badge, but not of the incident. Glad you're okay! x

[Lolmitchvids]

@seaco33 What for ?

[EmilyCarrie09]

I nearly got a blue peter badge, when I was about 14, I made a card for Zoe and sent them some ceramics, I would love to have one :)

[TVCriticAmy]

@EmilyCarrie09 Zoe...hmm, that would mean you're over the age limit now? :( I want to use my siblings to enter, ha!x

[MultiMusicalLove]

Does everyone who applies for a blu badge get one????

[TVCriticAmy]

@MultiMusicalLove Nope, but a lot do. x

[MultiMusicalLove]

@TVCriticAmy Ok Thank you.

[M4sterCh3if1]

i got one of my ponies from scotland in glasgow i love your accent wich part of scotland ya hail from!!!!!

[TVCriticAmy]

@M4sterCh3if1 Aberdeen :) x

[M4sterCh3if1]

Hi TVCriticAmy I applied for a green badge sending in a enviroment poem and all my details and i sent it british 2nd class post last monday 4th july its now wednesday 13th July i have not had a confirmation to say yes youve got a badge or hard luck you havent recieved a badge so i thought maybe i would be wise to seek advise from someone like you to see how long does it take for them to reply or give you a badge My poem was entitled 'BIG Change' so thanks Ryan age 13 x

[TVCriticAmy]

@M4sterCh3if1 Hi! If you sent it then, it probably would have arrived on the 7th. There's a good chance they've not had a chance to even read it yet. I believe they do receive a high volume of letters etc. Don't worry though, your letter will not be overlooked. As far as I know, ALL LETTERS are read, as soon as they can. I'd say it takes minimum two weeks for them to get to it. x

[M4sterCh3if1]

@TVCriticAmy hi u know when u first got your first badge did the card arrive with it or did you have to wait or something i was just wondering just because of the fake ones and stuff so did you get your badge card with your first badge thanks from M4sterCh3ief1 xxx :D

[GlitteryGuineaPig13]

@M4sterCh3if1 I own one you have to apply online using the code in the letter that comes with it xxx

Hope I helped xx

[M4sterCh3if1]

@TVCriticAmy hi again do you get the badge card when you get your badge in the post or do you get it at a later date or is there a form to fill out thnx xxx :D

[TVCriticAmy]

@M4sterCh3if1 I can't remember exactly, sorry. I THINK if you've provided all of the information you need, you'll get the card. I think you've got to just put the photo on yourself and peel the sticky label back. Possibly...it may be different now. x

[Weevilie]

Hi Amy! Nice Blue Peter Badges! I just want to know, how long does it take for them to reply back saying whether you've got a badge or not????

[WhovianWaterlooRoad]

After watching this, I'm going to try for as many badges as possible!!! I'm 14 and nearly 15 so I've got to be quick!!

Dead jelous of your collection haha lol  =)

[TVCriticAmy]

@WhovianWaterlooRoad Brilliant! Good luck! Let me know if you need any help x

[WhovianWaterlooRoad]

@TVCriticAmy For the Purple badge, do you just print off that form on their website, do the review and you are garunteed a Purple Badge?

[TVCriticAmy]

@WhovianWaterlooRoad I've just checked the site and yes, that's what you have to do :) I think I'd emailed for mine but that was years ago. If you can't fit it all in the form perhaps fill out a few additional pages too to show you do more than required :) I'm not sure if you're guaranteed a badge, but if it's GOOD you probably will xx

[MrPhibib]

I own the blue,green,purple and silver badge, i really want the gold, can anyone give me any ideas (not like saving someones life because that isnt planned, i dont know if i can do that when im under 16)

[RandomWhacko]

How long did it take for you to get your badges?? Well done by the way!! :D

[ObviouslyUltraCool]

6/8 badges I own <3

[LoonyInSpace]

Hi Amy, did you used to 'Zzzap!'? If you did I'd love hear your thoughts on it. Also I completely agree it'd be nice to see more British kids channels, or even just shows. I also have nothing against American shows, I watched a lot of them growing up, but at the same time we had The Queens nose, bernards watch, brum, home farm twins, worst witch. All British. They're aren't that many British shows aimed at kids between 10-16 anymore.

[xilent234]

it's weird isn't it? once you get one badge, go for another one, and another one, and another one...

lol :)

[xilent234]

I've got my first badge today! now I'm going for a silver badge!

[TVCriticAmy]

@xilent234 Aw yay! Well done! x

[TVCriticAmy]

@crazyfrogtime What about a mock script for your favourite TV show? Or perhaps a catalogue of your own poems? Maybe a little story about a holiday or something you've been on? x

[HappyElla9989]

@TVCriticAmy thanks for the ideas i might even use one of those ideas to send in!!

[HappyElla9989]

@TVCriticAmy How long does it take for blue peter to reply on an e-mail or to send you a badge in post??

[MrCoolster24]

Ages!!!Ive got a blue badge!!!It took 2 months!!!

[crazyfrogtime]

@TVCriticAmy How long does it take for a badge to arrive!!???

[TVCriticAmy]

@crazyfrogtime A few weeks to a few months. THey should send stickers if you are unsuccessful, so if you don't hear anything do try again!x

[crazyfrogtime]

[DJ3o3]

hello great vid. wen i clicked on it i thought it was was gonna be somet stupid, but it was very well. i have known about blue peter but never tried for a babge. can u give me some advise on what to do to get some badges. thx

[Efteldingetjes]

I live in Holland (my dad is english, my mom dutch :) )

But we've got BBC 1 & 2 and i allways watch Blue Peter.

So i decided to right in a poem about nature (dont know why...)

But today my dad call'd me cos i am at a friends house and he said that mail has come from the BBC and that there's something hard in it...( i wonder what XD)

But i hope its a badge, i think it is!

I'm gonna try and do more stuff and send it in!

XXX Damson

[Tollerkid]

I've got exactly the same badges as you! (I'm 14) :D. I so want a gold badge!

[signcrash]

The picture goes dark every time you hold a badge up to your camera. It obviously has a very sensitive exposure control. What kind do you use?

[JonnoJonnerz]

I have three of them, I got my first back in 2005/06 when I was in Year 5/6 at Primary School xD. How old are you in this video? My silver badge is very different, it's blue on the front and has silver around the edge.

[TVCriticAmy]

@JonnoJonnerz I'm 18 :) I've had the badges for a while. I got my first one around 2004 and the last one 2006/2007 ish. x

[AllOfTimeAndSpace]

Very cute cat sitting behind you! What's it's name?

[TVCriticAmy]

@AllOfTimeAndSpace Thanks! Hilda Rhea x

[AllOfTimeAndSpace]

@TVCriticAmy Cute

[fraserarts99]

Oh, it's just I am from Scotland and your accent was slightly scouse slightly scots.

[TVCriticAmy]

@fraserarts99 My accent is very weird! x

[fraserarts99]

what country are you from?

[TVCriticAmy]

@fraserarts99 UK :) England initially, but Scotland just now x

[CeletialDarkness]

you have kitties!

[TVCriticAmy]

@CeletialDarkness I do! :) x

[ssshlow]

those presenters were in my era too :D

woow, you got loads of badges!

i did a bring and buy sale when i was around 9, got a certificate haha

and you have so many cats, would be good if you did a video on them :) xx

[TVCriticAmy]

@ssshlow We had the best presenters, by far! Ooh, I would love a certificate! What's it like? Well done!

Haha I have two cats! Although it would appear like more...they move around so much in my videos! xx

[ssshlow]

@TVCriticAmy ohh i see :P

its not that special, just a glossy piece of photocopied paper :P badges are much better :)

[yellownudge]

I love how when I pressed the post button, you mentioned getting younger siblings to enter the competitions and taking their badges :L

[TVCriticAmy]

@yellownudge Haha! I would never do that...but if my siblings received an orange one and wanted to give it to me, then I would happily take it! Yes, George...I think that's right! There was Sox the cat too! (May have been Socks, but it doesn't look right to me!).x

[yellownudge]

I wish I'd earned Blue Peter badges while I could :[[

They were the best presenters, and animals, I remember Mabel and Lucy and Karri and Okie (or however the cat names were spelled) and the tortoises, I only remember Shelly's name, was the boy one George?

I wonder if I could make my little brother enter something on my behalf so I can get the normal badge...

[cledus27030]

I love your accent!

[TVCriticAmy]

@cledus27030 Thank you! x

[colt79sigma]

Look at your ceiling light -It looks like Scotty is trying to beam you up! ;-)

[TVCriticAmy]

@colt79sigma Ha! If I ever disappear half way through a video, you'll know why! x
