BLUE PETER SAD :(

Whatever happened to such great shows like Blue Peter and Newsround?
The presenters never talked down to the kids, always as equals.
It was a badge of honour to be a Blue Peter Presenter. You always learned new things and shown how to make anything from Tracey Island to a Radio.
You use to get into certain places if you had a Blue Peter badge, like museums, etc.
And as for Newsround, John Craven always told the viewers the truth, he never sugarcoated the news. But now the presenters from this show and Blue Peter always talk down to the viewers and act with a low-intelligence.
I remember when you had a Blue Peter presenter rode across the Atlantic in a solo boating event, or climb mountains, etc.
Children's TV has been dumbed down for this generation.
It's a sad state of affairs.
