// Asked about the change of plans, Business Secretary Lord Mandelson said he had "heard a very bad rumour that it was, in fact, the intervention of the BBC, with Channel Five, that prevented the appearance of Peppa Pig".
"Although Peppa Pig and her production company were absolutely delighted to come out today, BBC managers got on to Channel Five and started stirring up trouble over it, and tried to put Peppa Pig back in her box," he added.
"It's all very unfortunate. Anyway, I don't know what goes on between the BBC and Channel Five over these matters. "It's all far, far too political for me to understand."
Schools Secretary Ed Balls joked: "Unfortunately Peppa Pig is a global media star, acclaimed around the world, very busy, has many dates in Peppa's diary." //
