The Federal Government has named children's entertainer Simon Pryce Commonwealth representative to the Australian Children's Television Foundation (ACTF) Board for a three-year term.
Projects by Stephan Elliott, The Babadook writer- director Jennifer Kent, Ben Elton, Rowan Woods, Trent O'Donnell and Jacqueline McKenzie are among the recipients of the latest round of development funding from Screen Australia.
Ben Elton and The Wiggles may seem a strange combination but the Englishman is attached to write and direct a movie featuring the Australian group.
Wiggle Time TV can be seen over the internet or on Sony Bravia TVs for a monthly subscription fee
More children's programming will be on offer from ABC, starting next month
