BBC Three channel to return in January 2022

This is no conspiracy theory mate! Your theory is exactly spot on! In fact almost half of the programmes on the Scotland channel can easily fit on BBC Three!


And the rest can fit on TWO or ONE.


And if the wanted to keep a 'the Nine' style programme it could work quite well on BBC3 Scotland at 7.

Or even better, on BBC1 Scotland at 6


I think that could be controversial. Moving the bespoke Scottish bulliten on BBC2 or 3 Scotland would be a much easier solution.

BBC Three channel to return in January 2022

Sorry if I ask but I don't understand why this would give the BBC cover should they ever review the BBC Scotland channel?


Perhaps they might spin it to say that the BBC Scotland budget is now still there but they are showing the programmes on more popular channels.

In the next year or two, they could quietly end that spending, put it all into BBC3, and strongly promote Scottish programmes on the channel in the hope noone will notice the missing money.

That is the conspiracy theorist in me.

BBC Reith-brand Mock

I've redone the children's channels and their radio counterparts.

*

Let's start with CBBC.
CBBC's design is now more identical to the 2016 logo, being altered to look more like a C and some of the parts are brighter. The BBC part is now purple instead of black. CBBC Radio is now a Radio 1 block airing from 3.15pm-5:45pm. I feel like a full-fledged CBBC Radio station would be a risky move, but it could happen in the future.

Now for CBeebies.
I start in my previous concept that a CBeebies rebrand would be too risky, but I've realized that the 2002 logo is a tiny bit outdated. It's still bubbly and uses a yellow/purple colour scheme but more fitted for the modern logos. CBeebies Radio uses the same font, with a music symbol on the I.

Tell me what you think Smile.


I like the Cbeebies one. But not too convinced on the CBBC logo - very odd spacing and sizing.

Also - secret forum???

Only the most important users get into the secret forum. We were just all there discussing you.


Ahh. Well I'm sure the special few have a wail of a time slagging us off. Smile

BBC Three channel to return in January 2022

Would things like Formula E and sports on iPlayer be shown on delay.

Ideal time to launch would be February for Winter Olympic Games


What do you mean by 'shown on delay' exactly.

Catch-up?

Delayed by 5-10 minutes?

Have you arranged with Asa to transfer over -
1) the secret forum
2) the embedded TSW Archive ?


My understanding is that it'll be starting completely a-new and nothing will be 'tranferred over'

Also - secret forum???

Good Morning Britain

I noticed neither Piers or Susannah used a laptop at the start of the week, and sat with papers only, and their phones at some points. Charlotte used one, and I noticed Ben did yesterday morning, however, I didn’t see any of the programme this morning... wandavision enticed me instead!


Susannah was using a laptop on Monday and Tuesday. Although it was off camera in the close-up shots.

I'm surprised they still use laptops for Breakfast programmes rather than tablets.


They were using tablets as well as computers previously.

I have a feeling (looking at the hindge style) that these are convertibles. Laptops/computers also work better when at a desk.

Good Morning Britain - Recreation

The Good Evening Britain name could even be used.

Is it just me or are the laptops the GMB presenters have on the new desk because there aren't any under the desk, remind you of the laptops used by the BBC World News presenters in N8 post-2008?


They probably only remind you of them purely because they're laptops. Albeit much slimmer, faster and they look like convertables.
