At last - at the start of this morning's breakfast show they showed the set being taken apart0 -and that they were launching this afternoon- i assume that means at 3:25pm - a definite new look

WAHAY!!!
New look CBBC this afternoon (SEPTEMBER 3RD), also it looks like it'll be in widescreen aswell.
Lets hope we get some new presenters with a bit of talent wheeled in!
About time we see CBBC rebranded. You never know, they could use the new set for the morning slot on BBC 2 (where they have Playdays and Teletubbies and Birthdays etc.).
Are those the brand new idents then? It seems unlikely that they'd do those different versions just to be shown once, maybe twice, on today's morning show, AND do a new version of the jingle too. Perhaps they're a stopgap until the new digital services come along and they can totally rebrand. Or maybe they really are just to be see* **** as a goodbye...
How far in advance is CBBC On Choice recorded? I see they haven't made any effort to keep up with the 'refurbishment' theme as Michael's still sitting there in the old set.
3.25 on BBC1 - off to a good start with a CBBC TWO Ident. 16:9 though, and - contrary to my great fear - no bug! Nothing in vision yet though - Angellica announced the first programme in sound only over the first (BBC TWO, I remind you) ident.

Are there new idents then? Or are they the old ones turned into widescreen?

Nothing between Pingu and the Tweenies...! - apart from a mous ident...

They're the old ones, but with a few digital effects added to them and cut up a bit. I saw new versions of Fish and Frog this morning; the one before T***nies wa* * **w version of Mouse.
Still nothing in vision, just Angellica announcing over idents. Maybe that's what they're doing for the pre-school kids stuff now - strangely old-school but I don't have an* **jection to it. There IS a new ****io set though, it's just that we haven't been granted entrance yet!
