New CBBC digital channels

Anyone get any screenshots of the new studio? I didn't catch it!

It was only the DIGITAL studio, we've yet to see the BBC 1/2 studio. All though I think it wll be same style, and Is it Richard and Dominic presenting Holidays Morinings on Two next week, I got the feeling it was.

Actually - at first I thought they were there because they're going to present 'Stitch Up', but in the end it didn't look like they were. Or were they? It was all pretty confusing. Maybe they were there to present Holiday Mornings on 2... Also I think Chris Jarvis will be one of the main CBeebies presenters as he did the voiceover for the CBeebies trailer telling you how to recieve the channel. I really like the studio - looks great.

According to Radio Times, these are the presenters:

CBeebies:

Chris Jarvis
Pui Fan Lee (who 'is most famous for playing Teletbbby Po' )
Sue Monroe (new. She doubles as a puppeteer and storyteller in 'Step Inside' )

CBBC Digital:

Angelica Bell ('is a regular on Studio 9 and will also present XChange' )
Tony Craig (new)
Fearne Cotton ('..is a former CITV Presenter' )
Konnie Huq (of Blue Peter fame!)
Ortis ('one of the main presenters' )

Richard and Dominic were in fact two of the Stich Up victims, which is, I believe, to be presented by a couple of kids off something else. And I believe Chris Jarvis' role will simply be as presenter of Playdays on Cbeebies, not as an actual CBBC presenter like he used to be.

I wonder if Cbeebies and CBBC trailers will follow the box logo trailer format? Also, do we know if the new channels will be presented entirely from the studio or with idents and that at some points?

And finally... fingers crossed that the Newsround studio isn't lime green like the logo. Yuck! The logo is good but it'd look awful if the colour scheme was stuck everywhere!

That's interesting - so Konnie Huq will be presenting CBBC and the top 40 and Blue Peter. It's unnusual because Blue Peter presenters don't usually do any other programmes on CBBC whilst they are still presenting Blue Peter. Maybe she's about to leave? Incidentally the times for Newsrounds transmissions on CBBC are:

7.30am

8am

8.30am

12.30pm

1pm

1.30pm

6.25pm

What makes you think that? I think he will present CBeebies, as he did the voicover for the CBeebies info trailer - and Ortis did the equivalent for CBBC, and hes going to present CBBC. Are they going to start producing new Playdays' then? Cos all of the ones shown at the moment are repeats from years ago.

Look, heres the story. The RT has presenters of shows not the channel. Chris is doing a new show. The RT also has a teletubie and bob the builder on the front cover (and inside).

Theyhave new presenters to do links etc, and more well-known hosts are hosting shows. Although I got a real feeling that CBBC on TWO will be with dom and rich from the old days.

I couldn't find the time machine but I did find this shot of the 9 sofa and the 9 video screens. (Though I always thought it was 69  )

Does anybody remember the dancing plants?


(Stich up is presented by a group of teenagers!)

Do you think the theme will be BBC news-ish?, I don't think so.

I think the first one of those screen caps (the blue one with the globe) is part of the titles for the main Newsround programme (including bulletins) and the orangey ones are for Newsround Lite. Looks like Newsround will use some nice Newsy blues for it's colour scheme.

Richard and Dom are replacing Michael and Liam on CBBC on the mornings from next week. As far as I know.
