Children's Television in Britain by David Buckingham

Many are concerned that the public service tradition of children's television is threatened, and that quality and diversity in programming will be impossible to sustain. Based on an extensive research project, it provides a critical review of the history of children's television in the UK, and a realistic assessment of its future prospects.
