	Flesh supplies - TV & Radio - Entertainment - smh.com.au
		Nudity appeared on Australian TV as early as the late '60s in The Mavis Bramston Show, but it is Number 96 (1972-77), Alvin Purple (1976) and The Box (1974-77) that are remembered almost exclusively for it.
		(Contrary to popular belief, Abigail never appeared fully nude in the TV series of Number 96; it happened in the movie version.) In Chances, which famously featured Jeremy Sims's bum, there was guaranteed nudity in every episode, although the show never really became anything more than a late-night curio.
		SBS also shows a fearlessness when it comes to male nudity, which has in the past been largely represented by a coy flash of the behind.

		A measure of the Wiggles' growing fame in America is the fact that Captain Feathersword was mentioned in an episode of the acclaimed political TV drama The West Wing.
		Crucially for the Wiggles, both the VCR and the CD player were ideally suited to repeat playing, and like TV before them, both technologies were almost immediately harnessed to entertain the preschool children of the late Baby Boomer generation (most of whom had grown up with TV as a constant childhood companion and babysitter).
		Wiggles songs are often about simple topics familiar to very young children: sleeping ("Rock A Bye Bear", "Wake Up Jeff"), eating ("Fruit Salad"), animals ("Do the Monkey", "Rockabye Your Bear", "Ponies") or the cast of characters created for their home videos and TV shows.

		The increasing problem was that the BBC screened Neighbours in the early afternoons, causing havoc with school attendances as teenagers flocked to TV sets to keep up with the series.
		Neighbours continued through the 1990s with varying degrees of popularity as a new generation of characters were introduced though veteran performers such as Anne Haddy, Anne Charleston, Ian Smith and Tom Oliver would provide some link to the shows earlier era.
