Here is the thing, When will something think we need to order another series? or we could be waiting until 2017.
Such a wait wouldn't be surprising. The 2009 Dennis and Gnasher cartoon got a second series.... in 2013, by which time it basically had to be soft rebooted because Dennis's parents had been redesigned in The Beano.

CBBC are now credit squeezing, I think this has came about after watching archive clips during their 30th!

That's interesting, they haven't done this since 2008 at the very start of the office era, I think it was when they moved to East Tower from TC12 that it stopped.

Would be interested how it's done technically as I think the links just get cut to air as an outside source from RedBee/Ericsson at the moment, what does the squeeze look like?

on CBBC and CBeebies at 11 o'clock today: a lovely little way to observe a 2 minutes' silence in a way appropriate for a kids' channel: a short animation called Poppies.

It seems to have first made an appearance on Remembrance Sunday and Armistice Day last year, and also on the VE Day celebrations this year.
dbl, AxG and London Lite gave kudos

I noticed that flicking about on Sunday. They followed up with an explanation of it on Cbeebies. Nicely done, I thought.

Here is strange gem, BBC Alba has finally got the new series but It really does seem there have taken the old theme song by Donnie Macleod and just superimposed it.

Of course though there's plenty of 2D CGI animation around that can be done very quickly and cheaply, presumably much more so than 3D CG. Isn't the new DM flash animated?

Actually, the new DM is animated in Toon Boom Harmony.

It was going to be animated in flash, but they felt it was too limited - http://www.cartoonbrew.com/tv/rebooting-danger-mouse-for-a-new-generation-interview-with-directors-robert-cullen-and-paul-oflanagan-120551.html

Sometimes I overestimate people noticing changes in TV presentation; however, I underestimated the reaction of younger relatives to the rebrand of CBBC.

After flicking over to CBBC, one of the new idents appeared. Immediately, the comment came:

"Oh, they've changed the CBBC logo! I liked the old one where the letters were different things"

Considering the proliferation of Netflix and YouTube in their lives, I was surprised the change was noticed. Perhaps he's a TV Forum member in the making.
