Hip neu Sgip? (English: Hip or Skip?) is an S4C room makeover television programme for children. It is shown on the Welsh-language children's television programming opt-out, Stwnsh.
History
Commissioned by Siwan Jobbins in 2004 from an idea by Fflic production staff, Hip neu Sgip? was a vehicle for Alex Jones and a series of young designers.
Initially concentrating on bedrooms, Hip neu Sgip? expanded into large-scale projects in late 2008 by overhauling the Children's Ward play room at Ysbyty Glan Clwyd.[1]
Hip neu Sgip?: Yn erbyn y cloc
In 2011, Hip neu Sgip? was re-branded as Hip neu Sgip?: Yn erbyn y cloc (English: Hip neu Sgip?: Against the clock). It aired as eight 1 hour-long programmes. Alun Williams became the presenter and the team, including designer Leah Hughes and handymen, Iwan Llechid Owen, Gwyn Eiddior Parry and Ioan Thomas took on community-based challenges all over Wales. They used a number of suppliers from all over the UK ranging from major suppliers such as Litecraft[2] to smaller ones like L&S Prints.[3]
