History
Whilst Riddle in the House was being created, Bawk was created at the last second solely to make the show more entertaining. Allegedly, Riddles quickly created a random thing, which coincidentally looked like a chicken, came up with a random name (which was "Bawk") and put the character forward.
After Riddle in the House was cancelled in 2005, Bawk became a presenter for Jump! in 2006, as well as an occasional presenter for its successor, Venture!
