Channel 4 has pledged to boost their spend on programming aimed at teens (10-14 year olds) to £5 million by 2018, up considerably on the current budget of £3 million. Content aimed at that demo that can be played in the 8pm time-slot will be a decided focus.
Channel 4 has given the greenlight to The ABC, a week-night drama series inspired by the broadcaster's Educating... franchise, which hails from nascent production company The Forge.
