What happens

Playdays (known as Playbus until December 1989) is a British pre-school television programme which ran from 17 October 1988 to 28 March 1997 on Children's BBC. The show was the successor to Play School and, like its predecessor, was designed as an educational programme. The show's name was changed after the BBC received a complaint from the National Playbus Association. In 2002, reruns were moved to the new CBeebies channel until late August 2004.
