Overview

• The season 2 episode “Hammerbarn,” in which Bandit visits a hardware store, has been removed from ABC iView while BBC Studios and Bunnings run a Bluey-themed campaign.
• ABC cited its government-funded charter forbidding commercial partnerships as the reason for disassociating from the Bunnings promotion.
• The broadcaster will restore “Hammerbarn” to iView once the Bunnings campaign concludes.
• Bunnings spokesperson Melissa O’Neill said the decision was disappointing for both the retailer and Bluey fans.
• The episode remains available to UK viewers on BBC iPlayer and Disney+.
