First part was to provide a new pre school tv slot. Main reason for this was to combat the lack of pre kids shows from the effects of Sesame street: SS open a can or worms for ITV and IBA etc. A number of companies dislike SS but it turned out neither of the main ITV companies had produced any kids show the same league unlike the BBC. Thames along with Yorkshire who also hated SS started producing a whole range of new shows:
Thames Television came up with Rainbow,
Yorkshire with Mister Trimble,
Granada with Hickory House,
ATV’s with Inigo Pipkin.
