PROJECT

Formerly known as Children's Express, Headliners is a UK-wide news agency producing news, features and comment by young people for everyone.

Through a unique learning through journalism programme, young people aged 8 to 19 research and write stories on issues that are important to them for publication in national and local newspapers, magazines, television and radio.

The aim of this blog, created by Maëlle Guéroult and Connor Scullion, is to let every young person from Northern Ireland express their ideas and opinions, whatever their background.

The views contained in this blog are those of the individual writer and are not necessarily endorsed by Headliners, the host school or any other partner organisation.

Bish Bash Boosh




By Hayley Andrews (15, Headliners)


A new wave of comedy has shaken the showbiz world; The Mighty Boosh has taken the conventional “Ha-Ha” pieces of Comedy and has combined it with a brilliant cast of characters that have taken the comedy world by storm. The Mighty Boosh is a weird and very complex show, which tells the story of two men, Vince Noir (Noel Fielding) and Howard Moon (Julian Barratt) that go on a range of strange and comedy-caped adventures. Critics have argued that the stage-based show is sheer “Youth” comedy, that’s in direct competition with award-winning recent classics “The Office” and “Little Britain”.

Nothing appears wrong with the hit-show but others differ in taste, calling it youth culture television and more distastefully, car-crash TV. But I am happy to say that I am slightly addicted to this show and I can not wait till the new series comes out in the Autumn of 2007! Keep your eyes glued.
