Sam & Mark's TMi Friday

Sam & Mark's Big Friday Wind-Up (also called Sam & Mark's Big Wind-Up for repeat compilations featuring just the pranks and Sam & Mark's Big Christmas Wind-Up for Christmas specials) is a British children's entertainment series aired on the CBBC Channel since 16 September 2011. It is presented by Sam & Mark.[2] It is effectively the replacement for TMi (later known as Sam & Mark's TMi Friday). A fifth series started airing from 18 December 2015,[3][4] and a sixth series began airing from 16 December 2016 and finished on 31 March 2017.[5] A seventh series began airing in January 2018.

Format

Each episode begins with Sam & Mark speaking to children in the audience who are said to have an embarrassing member of their family. They happen to bring out one of the audience member's mother/father and get them to do their embarrassing feat. They allow their children to get back at them by playing a game called 'Mum/Dad on a Wheel' which has been recently changed to 'Mum/Dad Pin Bowling'. [citation needed]

Another segment is 'In Yer House' which involves Sam & Mark having to put on a disguise and play-act towards a certain child/victim without being seen, and once they are, they are 'rumbled'. There are four rounds to this game. [citation needed]
