Tom's Vlog: Tiny Sheep and Six-Legged Cows

Friday, March 19th, 2010

So, some of you will have noticed that Tom’s Vlog has been missing for the last couple of weeks. Mainly because we’ve all been extremely busy working towards Boot Camp, Backstories and the 3rd Quarterfinal.

However, he’s back this week with a BIGGER, FUNNIER, MORE EXCITING* episode of his wondrous vlog. Today, Tom gives us a mini run down on all things Quarterfinal and takes a look at a lost lamb and malformed cows. (Where does he get this stuff from?!)

Anyway, check it and don’t forget to rate, comment, subscribe and the one that everyone forgets; favourite!

*It’s actually pretty much the same…

True Belieber

Monday, March 8th, 2010

There are two things we love here at 1Click. That’s Twitter and Justin Bieber. “Why?” We hear you ask. We love tweeting! We tweet all day, every day about things that we’re doing and sometimes (most of the time) things that are completely irrelevant. And Justin, well it’s no wonder really, he became famous through the 1Click way! Justin began uploading his performance videos onto YouTube a couple of years ago and became a sensation! So, when the two combine, we just can’t contain our excitement.

Our video parody of the original “3 year old crying over Justin Bieber” caught Justin’s attention on Friday and he enjoyed it so much that he decided to tweet it! He even posted it on his Facebook. So, if you haven’t seen it yet then, WHY NOT?! Watch it now, at once!

The Drama Unfolds. . .

Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010

With Boot Camp being a not-so-distant memory now, it was a case of “business as usual” as we all arrived back at the 1Click Towers today.

Yesterday was another exciting and busy day for three of our Quarterfinalists as JUiCE, Hollie McKinlay and Nena Kubu stepped inside Stevie Lange’s Studios. It was a long day of vocal warm-ups, breathing exercises and hitting the right notes as each competitor was put through their paces by Stevie and her team of producers.

And let us not forget our other Quarterfinalists! Last week we took Boot Camp to them as 1Click favourite, Louise Stokes, had a one-to-one session with stand-up comedian Gary Delaney in her hometown of Birmingham, whilst Munks had lessons with Tae Kwon Do instructor, Alan Sparks in York.

You can catch up with all the latest news and see our photos from Boot Camp on our Facebook Page. We’ll leave you with some behind-the-scenes footage from the last couple of days; watch as the “drama” unfolds!

Tom's Vlog: Post-It Notes and Killer Bees

Friday, February 5th, 2010

There are a number of common mistakes you can make in the workplace. Accidentally sending rude e-mails to “all@…”, falling asleep at your desk and waking up with Post-It’s and paper-clips stuck to your face or thinking it’s ‘Bring your Pet to Work Day’ and ending up trying to tempt your badger ‘Montgomery’ down from the air conditioner with some M&S digestives. Yes, we’ve all seen these mishaps happen all too often, none of which we are guilty of…well, just the one and we still can’t figure out how Montgomery got up there in the first place. He’s still there.  The mind boggles.

And so, Tom returns with Episode 4 of his vlog and this week shows us a very stupid worker who makes a very stupid mistake…on live television! As usual, don’t forget to rate, comment and subscribe. We’re off to buy more digestives.

Tom's Vlog: The Luckiest Man?

Thursday, January 21st, 2010

Kylie sang “I should be so lucky” and Bruce Springsteen sang “Honey, you’re my lucky day.” But nothing compares to the luck that was witnessed in Russia as a pedestrian attempted to cross the road.

This week, Tom is back with his 2nd vlog (a day late, but then again punctuality has never been one of his strong points) giving us his view on what’s hip and happening in the webiverse right now. So sit back, have a watch and let us know what you think. Rate, subscribe and leave your comments. Oh…and don’t forget to tell us where you want to see the chicken!

Where is My Chicken?

Wednesday, January 13th, 2010

No, we’re not sitting in our local Nando’s or KFC waiting for our order. Instead, our content connoisseur, Tom, decided to bring you guys an exclusive feature to get involved with.

One of his many New Year’s resolutions was to get a little bit more agricultural and after we told him that playing Farmville on Facebook didn’t count, he decided to rear a chicken (and yes, he’s organic daaaarlings). The chicken has now grown into such a handsome piece of poultry (actually, he is a bit of a cock) that Tom thought he’d share him with you, our lovely 1Click audience.

Now picture this. Imagine you could send the chicken wherever you wish. YOU tell us where you want him and we will do our utmost to fulfill it for you, within reason of course.

Here to explain how it all works is Tom himself. Don’t forget to leave your comments and suggestions. Get involved! You’d be clucking mad not to…(no “fowl” play)…sorry…we’ll stop now.

Here at 1Click, we tend to get over-excited about pretty much everything so, when we walked into the office last month and saw that a Christmas tree had magically* appeared, it suddenly dawned on us that we had to get into the festive spirit and bring good tidings to all.

As if we were a reincarnation of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, we all huddled together and proclaimed it “morphin time,” which for us was to bring you good fun and entertainment. If you haven’t seen it already, we created our very own Advent Calendar where each window contained exclusive videos and footage.

We’ve been so chuffed with the runaway success of it and being crowned with one of the highest viewed channels last month, that we had to say a big thank you to everyone who watched and engaged with us throughout. Amongst the favourites has been our very own version of the “Surprised Kitty” video which managed to get over 519,000 views and our Christmas treat for you, a rendition of “Christmas in Hollis” originally done by Run-DMC.

A special thanks to 1Click regulars, Lucie Evans, Katem3, Ayda, Louise Stokes, Ben Francis and HimandmeTV, who all took time out to give us their own Christmas messages.

1Click2Fame Advent Calendar Day 23

Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009

“The Queen’s Christmas Message is a broadcast by Queen Elizabeth and made to the Commonwealth at Christmas. The tradition began in 1932 with a radio broadcast by King George V on the BBC. Today the broadcast is made on television and radio via various providers.”

That’s what Wikipedia says but apparently, 1Click2Fame competitors Him and Me TV have a whole other idea of what Her Majesty’s festive tradition should be. We’ll say no more…
