A. Dustbin Baby, a CBBC programme, was shown on BBC1 in December, 2008. The film starred actress Dakota Blue Richards as April, a teenager, who has been left in a dustbin as a baby. Dustbin Baby was nominated for the International Emmy Award in the children and young people category at the 37th International Emmy Awards. The film won the award, making it one of six International Emmys for the UK, and one of three for the BBC, in 2009. Helen Blakeman won a Children's British Academy Award for best writer, thanks to her screenplay for Dustbin Baby.

B. Dustbin Baby Award is one of those that honour the best achievements on the small screen made outside America. All the winners are selected by members of the National and International Academies of Television Arts & Sciences. The International Emmys see TV stars and shows from all over the world that compete for one of eleven programme categories and two special awards. The Emmys are like the Oscars for TV programmes, they are held in Los Angeles every year. There have been loads of British successes in the past, including The Vicar of Dibley, Graham Norton and Ricky Gervais' sitcom The Office.

C. Dustbin Baby is a sentimental family drama. It is a story of April, a teenage girl, who has been left in a dustbin as a baby. The film begins on April's fourteenth birthday. April argues with Marion, her adoptive mother, after getting earrings instead of a mobile phone as a gift. April runs away from home and visits places and people that are significant to her. While young April tries to discover where she belongs, her adoptive mother searches for her trying to understand where she went wrong. When April and her adoptive mother meet, Marion apologizes and the film ends with April's voice saying that she may never find her real mother, but that that doesn't matter to her.

D. Dustbin Baby is based on the novel by Jacqueline Wilson, one of the nation's favourite authors, whose books are loved by young readers not only in the UK but all over the world. One of Jacqueline's most successful creations has been the famous Tracy Beaker, who first appeared in The Story of Tracy Beaker in 1991. Since then Jacqueline has won many awards.

E. Jacqueline Wilson said that it was the best ever film adaptation of her work. In an article in The Times David Chater, a well-known British journalist, awarded the programme the TV choice of the day, describing it as "tremendous" and "the wonderful surprise of Christmas". The Telegraph described the film as "something that teenagers and parents can watch together". This view was a reflection of producer Anne Brogan's view. She said that the film was something "that parents and children will enjoy watching while giving them much to talk about". TV viewers also highly appreciated the film.

It is well known that the "wise men" in the Bible "came from the East". Mr Bullet came from the East, too, so he was a wise man; and what is more — Mr Bullet was an editor. The only occasion on which he was not wise was when, leaving the East, he came to the city of Alexander-the-Great-o-nopolis (Nopolis) in the West.

But I must be fair and say that when he made up his mind to stay in that town, he thought that no newspaper and no editor were there in that part of the country. When he started the newspaper, he expected to have no competition. I'm sure Mr Bullet would never think of going to Nopolis if he didn't know that there lived a gentleman named John Smith. John Smith was an editor who for many years had quietly grown fat editing the Alexander-the-Great-o-nopolis Daily News.

So Mr Bullet decided that he would live in Nopolis. He opened an office exactly opposite that of the Daily News. In the third morning after his arrival the first issue of the Nopolis Teapot appeared. The leading article was excellent and shocking at the same time. It was strong about things in general and it was especially strong about Mr Smith. Some of Bullet's words were really so strong that I do not know how John Smith managed to live through the experience. I cannot hope to give all the Nopolis Teapot's words exactly, but one paragraph goes like this:

Oh, yes! Oh, we can see! Oh, no doubt! The editor opposite is such a clever man. Oh, dear! Oh, goodness! What is the world coming to?

The article exploded like a bomb among the citizens of Nopolis. Groups of excited people met to discuss it on street corners. Everyone waited nervously for John Smith's reply. Next morning it appeared in the Daily News as follows:

In the Teapot of yesterday we find the words Oh, yes! Oh, we can see! Oh, no doubt! The editor opposite is such a clever man. Oh, dear! Oh, goodness! Why the man is all O? We really do not believe that the man can write a word that hasn't an O in it. Probably this O-ing is his habit. He came from the East in a great hurry. Probably he took a great sum of money in the place he had lived in and could not pay. Oh, it is pitiful!

Mr Bullet did not seem to be angry at the attack on his honesty. It was the attack on his style that made him feel unhappy. What! He, Mr Bullet, was not able to write a word without an O in it! He would soon show Mr Smith that he was mistaken. Yes, he would let Mr Smith see that he, Mr Bullet, could write a whole paragraph — even a whole article — in which that letter did not appear. But no! That would be just what Mr John Smith wanted. He, Mr Bullet, would make no change in his style! The O for ever! He would keep the O. He would use O whenever he liked.

Mr Bullet sat up all night and wrote an article with the letter O in each word. He handed his article to printer's boy who was waiting, and walked slowly home to bed.
