Rainbow is a British children's television series, created by Pamela Lonsdale, which ran between five times weekly, twice weekly and once weekly at 12:10 on Tuesdays and Fridays on the ITV network, from 1 September 1972 to 31 December 1992. After more than 1000 episodes, the series came to an abrupt end when Thames Television lost its ITV franchise at the end of 1992.
