Subsequently, a fifth series was not commissioned and the show was axed. Apart from two weeks over the Christmas period in the first series, the transmission of each series was uninterrupted until Series 4. Whilst the first three series aired on Thursdays, Series 4 was the only one to air on Wednesdays (except the final episode, which aired on a Tuesday). The run was interrupted several times, with no episodes broadcast on 18 October 1995, 22 November 1995 or 20 December 1995. There was a three-week gap between the penultimate and final episodes of Series 4. The final episode then went out on 2 January 1996, the only episode to air that year. A spin-off series called "Bad Level 10" aired on The Children's Channel. Series 1: (26 episodes, each 10 minutes long) broadcast from 20 February 1995, and presented by Violet Berlin, alongside "assistant presenter" Steve Keen, who was originally a researcher onBad Influence! The series, like its parent programme, was also produced by Patrick Titley and Yorkshire Television.
