I used to have an eating disorder and I didn't look like Posh by 'eating well', as she says she does. I find it insulting to my intelligence when celebrities like Posh Spice and Calista Flockhart (Ally McBeal) say they look healthy.  Athina (16)  Do any Backchatters know when "The Crow: Stairway To Heaven" (series) is released?

Why is everyone so against the Cliff Richard song? Is it just because it's religious?  Paulos (13), Boston  What have 5ive got against Westlife? They're always slagging them off. Abs even had the cheek to say (in Smash Hits) that their album was the worst this year. I bet he hasn't even heard it. I like them both, but I'm really annoyed with the way 5ive are acting like three-year-olds.  FE Girl 3/5 Backchat 506 CBBC 500 Newsround 510 Studio 9 520 Comp 507 Flashback 515 Comp.

We think that people are so racist against other religions and cultures — especially to Asian people. We find it very upsetting when people come out with racist comments. It is really sad. They wouldnt like it if it was about them. We can't help being the colour/ race we are.  Shahrukh and Kajol 4/5 Backchat 506 CBBC 500 Newsround 510 Studio 9 520 Comp 507 Flashback 515 Comp.

I'm glad I'm not a parent this year. They are having to fork out loads of money on gifts which are way over-priced, just because of their brand name, eg Star Wars toys.  Jimbobski (20), Halesowen, W Midlands  Arron (23/11) — a decent bed-time for a 12-year-old is 9 or 9.30pm (that's what I think anyway). Also, what do fellow Backchatters think about Furbies? Is it worth getting one? And, most importantly, are they pukka or pants?!  Felicity B, Cambridge 5/5 Backchat 506 CBBC 500 Newsround 510 Studio 9 520 Comp 507 Flashback 515 Comp. Newsround GameZine Main menu
