Lee typically spends each episode sharing several of the countless tapes - usually consisting of humorously-edited clips of other BBC shows, or videos from video sharing sites such as [[YouTube]] - with whoever comes to visit him (specifically, the viewer - the episodes are shown through their perspective in first-person), with the title sequence positing that the guest is a child who fell down the chute whilst participating in a tour of the BBC studio. The tip is also home to an unidentified green monster which, at the end of the episode, drags away and seemingly eats the viewer. | ||

Another reoccurring aspect of the series was that Ross would also be joined by a guest star of some variety, such as characters from other CBBC shows. The [[Chute! Episode 9 (TV story)|ninth episode]] of the series, broadcast on [[22 November (releases)|22 November]], is notable in that regard, and to this wiki, for featuring the guest appearances of [[Daniel Anthony]] and [[Tommy Knight]], both in character as [[Clyde Langer]] and [[Luke Smith]] from ''[[The Sarah Jane Adventures]]''. | Another reoccurring aspect of the series was that Ross would also be joined by a guest star of some variety, such as characters from other CBBC shows.
