| The tics first burst into our world when they developed the ticnology to break into BBC Radio 5's Saturday morning show. For over a year they either amused or annoyed the audience before Radio 5 became a news station... | The "her" in HerStory is Frantic - a frenetic teenage wannabe. Being a great organizer (some would say bully) she manages to get loads of other tics involved in her attempts to break into the world of stardom. | The tics are tiny characters - no bigger than a spec of dust - so no one has ever seen them - but you can hear them all around you if you listen hard enough... |
Every Saturday morning at about 10 o'clock Frantic would push the start button (not the bottom button, which is the top button) and with a burst of static Radio tic rudely burst into the Ross King show on BBC Radio 5...  |
Frantic has a strange sense of humour sometimes... in fact all of the tics have a strange sense of humour - but you know what? The jokes are so bad you'll be telling them to all your friends this evening... |
During the BBC Radio 5 run of shows the tics built a good following with listeners sending in fantastic drawings of what they thought the tics looked like - and many called into the show... Listen to a mad tic fan phone-in... |
| Jingle Bells on the BBC - Antic's resolution from the New Year's Day Special which was a request show: Play That Tune! |
Ever wondered what 3D radio would look like? Well, in the World's first-ever 3D radio show Antic uses Frantic as an example... |
BBC Radio 5 used the tics in trailers to promote clubs, programmes and generally spread mayhem - this one is for the OLLIE CLUB... |
