ABC2 carries programming for babies and little kids (branded as ABC Kids on 2)
ABC3 carries programming for school age kids
ABC1 carries programming for both little kids and school age kids. The
reason for kids programming on ABC1 is for all those people who cant get
ABC2 or ABC3

Yeah what a load of shite! And a total waste of taxpayer money and radio
spectrum.
But that explains why all 3 have shown some of the same programs at various
times how though?
Doctor Who and Torchwood for "babies and little kids" seems a stretch too
IMO :-)

Gimmie a break, this useless whinge thread only exists because they have
an obligation to still provide something for kids on their analogue
channel.
