Kids TV: The Surprising Story

"UH OH!"

Uh oh indeed, CBBC has gone downhill - booooooo! - and so has Scream Street with its second season. CBeebies is getting good thanks to Bluey, but we prefer watching it on Disney+. As we choose between streaming and serving our kids with more nursery rhymes, stories, songs and fantasies where rebel punk girls like Tracy Beaker scream and destroy the care home they live in, what are we going to do about what our children will learn? Join a former Blue Peter presenter as she wanders out of a children's nursery her grandmother maybe left behind and goes on a tour of the ages of kids, from preschoolers and toddlers (Play School and Teletubbies) to teens and tweens (Tracy Beaker and Grange Hill). Prepare for a trip down memory lane...with some moments you won't want to show your kids!
