The death of children's television cuts me deep. I was born in 1987 so was born into the best time of televisioin. Presenters on CBBC and CITV were like part of the family, all happily introducing brightly colored cartoons and engaging television shows. When we finally got satelite TV, Nickelodeon became my favorite, I loved watching the shows they had, but not only those, I also enjoyed the interactions of the presenters and the way they intereacted with the children who were on set. By the early 2000's though, presenters had become a thing of the past, replaced instead with quick voice overs introducing shows during the credits of the previous show.

My favourite UK kids show was Danger Mouse. In January 2013 the CITV channel (RIP) dedicated an entire weekend to classic CITV shows like Danger Mouse, Count Duckula, Fun House, The Sooty Show, Sooty & Co and T-Bag. Danger Mouse was the most-watched show of the entire weekend, most probably leading to it being revived by the BBC a couple of years later. It's just a shame that you didn't include CHOCKY in this list as that scared the living f*@! out of me as a kid in the 1980's.

After i stopped watching, the shows declined no doubt. I remember endless greats like Chucklevision, Art Attack, Finders Keepers, Brum, Sooty, Round The Twist, Byker Grove, Zzzap, Dennis The Menace, The Queen's Nose, Bodger And Badger, Fun House etc, plus US shows like Batman The Animated Series, Recess, Rugrats, The Real Ghostbusters, Hey Arnold, Tiny Toons, Sylvester And Tweety Mysteries etc. Clearly the great times were over a long time ago.

I’m sorry, but we’re old. Today’s crop of kids is growing up with streaming in the same way we grew up in a golden age of broadcast television. If there’s good kids’ TV out there, they’ll find it. The challenge will be making sure it’s commissioned at a time when financial models are changing in TV and costs are rising, but that’s another story.

I get what you are saying but did you miss the bit about all the children that DON’T have internet access? Both CBBC (aimed at children) and BBC4 (aimed at older people) are already available online so people can stream them if they want. Making them exclusively available online adversely affect children from poorer familiars and older people who aren’t online. Also, don’t forget that they made BBC3 a completely online channel only to backtrack. It turns out that when more people could watch those shows, they did. What really sucks is that they made such a big deal about bringing BBC3 back to regularly TV only to then announce that they were taking away CBBC and BBC4

So, yes, there will be some that this adversely effects, but 1.5 million households is not as big as it seems. That’s about 5% of the UK, compared to 11% of households who didn’t own a TV up until as recently as 2013, so through the whole golden era of broadcast TV. Getting internet access for all is a much bigger question than who has TV access, but hopefully, with the Broadcast Bill going through Parliament and the potential for a digital-to-IP switchover in the future, initiatives will be put in place to close the gap when it comes to TV. Besides, the number of houses with no Internet shrinks organically every year (it was 8% just a year earlier). When it comes to BBC Three, most of that backlash came from the fact that streaming was in its very nascent days in 2016, and broadcast viewer numbers were far higher. I think it was a case of wrong place, wrong time, because it’s young people who are leading the charge to VOD, including broadcaster VOD. For example, I Kissed A Boy’s iPlayer numbers were far higher than the tiny linear figures it brought on BBC Three, but it’s still been applauded as a huge success, showing that, although there is still a lot to iron out, we are starting to measure success differently now that viewing habits are changing, and I’m sure kids’ TV will set the tone for the next decades.

Do you have kids? Because I can tell my kids and most kids I'm around prefer to watch what we grew up watching & playing. Even Mario & Sonic are still relevant. Don't let the influx of rubbish fool you. These kids rather have the childhoods we had. They're toys aren't even as cool & they're poorly planned out.

@@JoeBleasdaleReal These are all good point and I hope you are right. I didn’t realise that the number of households that don’t have internet access was dropping so quickly. However, as of now, only 52% of the UK has full fibre access. I know a family who lives less than a mile from me, who has spent a lot of money trying to get reliable internet but they still don’t have it. They are far enough into the countryside that there just isn’t the infostructure to give them fast reliable broadband. Sometime it works but others they can’t even watch a KZitem video because they just can’t connect. Hopefully, in the near future, everyone in the UK will have access to good reliable internet. As of now, even if most people do have internet, that is no guarantee that it will work well enough for them to watch shows when everything goes online.

The "Rainbow" segment is presented here out of context, but the narration tries to disclaim it. The 'episode' of course was specially made for a private viewing at the TV studio's christmas party. Leaked copy then circulated on the on pre internet bulletin boards.

After seeing so many articles about the Rainbow clip, I was expecting this to be another one full of falsehoods, but this one actually got it right - it did air on Channel 4 as part of the late Victor Lewis Smith’s fantastic TV Offal. Now, if only the “rude” Captain Pugwash names could stop being passed around as truth…

I enjoy some of the WatchMojoUK content but I wish you guys would fact check sometimes, the Rainbow episode shown was a Christmas joke filmed just for the crew. It was added on an adult bloopers video in the 80s as a funny skit. It was NEVER broadcast to children.

The Christmas Tape was such a television culture tradition of the 70s and 80s. Seeing them surface online is always a joy. The BBC and ITV ones are especially funny, although I also seem to remember a Christmas Tape from the first season of Star Trek: The Next Generation also appear, in a poor quality video. I need to find it again.

I believe the actual reason Dave Thompson was fired from Teletubbies was because at the same time, he was doing an off-colour cabaret act. Not really a problem because no-one knew who was inside the Teletubby costumes, but the newspapers drew attention to it and made such a big deal about the star of a pre-schoolers programme appearing in an adult show, that the BBC felt it reflected badly on Teletubbies and sacked him.

Also with the Bob the Builder clip is that he's also got wallpaper glue on his face and you need to tell kids not to do that. The reason Tinky Winky has a handbag is because some little kids pretend to play as their mum. And he's antenna is supposed to represent how some people put hangers on old TVs to get a signal and that's the official statement you can choose to believe or not. Channel 5 used to show some weird programming back in the day. Dick and Dom in da bungalow just got crazy and crazier.
