It is still very prominent enough to access as a channel
ITV2 is interesting, on Freeview at channel 6, it would be on the top page of the EPG, so arguably this would get more exposure at that position. Cable and Satellite however, it would be more hidden as it wont appear in the kids section of the EPG on Sky/Virgin and is on the 2nd or 3rd page? of the general entertainment section.

OK, 2nd page. but most kids who do use EPGs tend to go straight to the kids section. I guess it's ok if it appears in the SkyQ kids pages but most won't probably choose to scan through the general section. Sky showcase tended to show sky kids content and that was on the first page. if like Trouble it was targeting older then the general section makes sense. LittleBE makes sense as it would likely be Mums choosing the channel to watch. For prominence, ITV1 probably would have made more sense but I guess they want flexibility in the scheduling. come to think of it is there any requirement in the channel 3 licence for kids content?
