CBBC

CBBC (short for Children's BBC) is a children's television channel. If you were a British child and did not watch shows on this channel, you missed out. Since its launch in 1985, it has served entertainment for children aged 6-12 of generations. Little sisters or brothers would watch CBeebies instead and the day one would transition to CBBC was akin to a bar mitzvah.
