    Well, RTE's new youth programming seems to have ticked all the boxes (link):

    - 'z' instead of an 's' - check (Grubz Up!)
    - Exclamation mark in programme title - check (see above)
    - Funky acronyms - check (RTÉjr, TRTE)
    - Getting down with the kids and their txtspk - check (elev8, news2day)
    - Happy smiley multicultural presenters - check ("Moldovan-born Diana Bunici")

    Presumably the spelling of elev8, news2day and Grubz Up is what they mean by "quintessential public service broadcasting for 21st century audiences" :rolleyes:

    Animated series about a girl with Down Syndrome, can see her name becoming an insult on the playground fairly sharpish.
