| - Its Dave Benson Phillips Dave Benson Phillips (born 3 February 1965) is a British children's television presenter who gained high popularity as the host of the children's game show Get Your Own Back, shown on BBC One (later CBBC) between 1991 and 2003. In 2005 he was among the select few honoured by induction into the Children's Walk of Fame. Between 1989 and 1999, Dave Benson Phillips was also a presenter on Playdays, especially its memorable "Playground Stop" segment, in which he enabled viewers to become knowledgeable about Makaton, a basic sign language. After Get Your Own Back discontinued production, he kept a busy work schedule in children's and preschool educational television, particularly for the BBC and Playhouse Disney. In addition, he presented links for the SKY channel "Babestation", in which he gave a cheeky and irreverent commentary on the filth taking place. He also hosted a local weekly segment every day on the Worthing, West Sussex radio station, 107.7 SPLASH FM. He produced a video of Makaton Nursery Rhymes in 2001, being a very rare example of sign language video recordings for children. (www.davebensonphillips.co.uk)
