Children's; boom time for kids

Article Abstract:

British children's programming is saturating the overseas market, and much of it is focused on related marketing opportunities. BBC Worldwide, for instance, is still enjoying the success of Teletubbies, and it is releasing a variety of new shows, including Tweenies, the new program aimed at pre-schoolers. Children's drama is also doing well, and this may have something to do with the success of United Productions' The Worst Witch.
