CITV 30th Anniversary

Interesting those ratings. What do shows on that channel usually get?

Considering how much the shows were being discussed on Twitter, I'm guessing the ratings were a lot higher than what the channel usually gets.

Well, both my kids loved the riddlers much to my surprise! Button Moon has been the absolute favourite though. Goes to show that a good show can transcend generations. It is a show I fondly remember as a kid and my kids love it too and even though by today's standards I lacks polish its nice easy watching.

I truly wonder if citv have ever taken their older programming to a focus group to see how well it works if shown today. Both my under 5s love what they have seen. Even Rosie and Jim is a hit and I hated that!

I hope they have a strand of retro programming, I've never watched citv with my kids (cbeebies/CBBC, nick Jr and Disney always) until today.

An age breakdown for Finders Keepers has also been put on DS, makes for interesting reading:

Children 4-15 - 159k (10.7%)
Adults 16-24 - 5k (0.9%)
Adults 25-34 - 179k (12.6%)
Adults 35-44 - 51k (3.8%)
Adults 45-54 - 10k (0.6%)
Adults 55-64 - 7k (0.5%)
Adults 65+ - zero

Looking at ratings over the past few months, the highest rating shows on CITV each week bring in between 200k and 300k viewers; either "Horrid Henry" or films.

It'd be interesting to see final consolidated figures when they're released.

I imagine most kids have no prejudice about how old something is or its production value, so a retro strand would work for them. Bad example maybe, but my 4 year old niece loves Count Duckula, as we have them all on DVD. Bad example because that show really has not aged at all.

I have to asked again has anyone else seen the full ident?

Help us by saying which production company's ident you mean.

It dosent even have to be a strand just one or two shows from yesteryear and see if it brings in the audiences.

Long one I have only seen once, yesterday.
