Children's television has been a treasured part of British TV for a long time - from quietly Watching With Mother, through the bright colours of the Broom Cupboard and into Dick and Dom‛s crazy Bungalow. But this has all come under threat in recent months, if not recent years, with a distinct lack of anything to take the edge off a Saturday morning or distract the kids in the after school slot.
