Click (TV series)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Click (previously Click Online) is a weekly BBC television programme covering news and recent developments in the world of consumer technology, presented by Spencer Kelly.
There are three editions of the programme. There are two 30-minute programmes: One is produced for a UK audience and shown on BBC News 24, the second is produced for a global audience, aired on BBC World, usually identical with a commercial break in the middle. The 15-minute version is shown on BBC One and BBC News 24 during BBC Breakfast (at the weekend).
Thursday 29 December 2005 marked the last edition of Click Online, as the show was previously known. This coincided with the departure of Stephen Cole after 295 shows. The programme was rebranded with new music and titles and now concentrates more on consumer issues, and not necessarily the internet or what users can do or visit "online".

The current presenter of Click is Spencer Kelly who had already been a reporter and producer on the show, and also compiled reports for The Gadget Show on Channel five. Kate Russell shows the websites that are sent in or she finds herself in the weekly Webscape segment.
Previous presenters of the show include Stephen Cole who left the BBC to work for Al Jazeera International.
With the departure of Stephen Cole, Rob Freeman is the last remaining on-screen member of the original Click Online team. He started the Webscape segment, and currently answers viewers technical questions. There are also other journalists presenting the programme, whose details can be found on the Click website. [1]
The Webscape segment of the programme has received criticism for being overtly politically correct, tending to feature websites promoting multiculturalism and environmentalist subjects.[citation needed]
