Bits and Bobs is a children's television programme which is produced and is broadcast by BBC. It was last repeated on CBeebies on 21 December 2012.1 The show is filmed at several notable Scottish attractions and locations.
Bits and Bobs is also an English slang for a collection of small items too numerous or varied to name individually. It originated from carpenters' tool kits containing parts for a drill, with bits used for making holes while bobs are routing or screwdriving drill attachments.
Recording for the first series took place in late 2001 and was initially scheduled to premiere in the summer of 2002.2
