Such a shame. Used to flip-flop between CBBC & CITV strands on BBC1 & Grampian (our Channel 3 franchise holder) respectively.
There’s little local children’s TV content these days,& now our youth have no attention span & are seeing content that doesn’t reflect their local culture &/or is poorly produced.
They should never have axed the children’s strands from the Main channels. Yes it forced oldies to watch it, but stopped kids & adults watching together.

One for the Blue Peter fans. Indulge in a little 1970s nostalgia with this detailed look at what's inside the 1972 Blue Peter Annual. A little historical time travelling fun with John Noakes, Leslie Judd, Valerie Singleton and of course Shep the dog.
