This account is currently on hiatus as my offline workload has ramped up a lot. I plan to revisit it again and to continue digitising old TCC listings as soon as things quieten down a bit for me.

Looking back at TV schedules from The Children's Channel, a cable/satellite TV station than ran from 1984 to 1998 in Europe.
This account is currently on hiatus as my offline workload has ramped up a lot. I plan to revisit it again and to continue digitising old TCC listings as soon as things quieten down a bit for me.
