Why do they feel the need to fake the cat name comp? Viewers wanted it to be called cookie. Cute name.0

All those comps were from BBC magazines, and will still be running I expect - they're nothing to do with the main BBC siteEsmeralda78 wrote: »:mad: :mad: I'm annoyed, I was hoping for a Dell Laptop!!!Al Mac Appreciation Society (AMAS) member # 6½

hence why i never buy a tv licence !!!!0 -

Phew - Thanks for that CheekyYou mean the cat already had a name. :eek:
I think that Socks was one of the options that the viewers had to vote for but it wasn't the most popular but the BBC preferred this. Very strange!!Prizes for 2018
