Well, in just over a week, if the rumours are true, You might be saying how the music is far better than the 1999-2003 music!!


Rumours, rumours, rumours! Why is it that the only thing that has been anywhere near confirmed is a graphical overhaul, and yet some people are persistent in the belief that an entire channel relaunch is imminent?!

For fùcks sake, it's almost guaranteed now we'll have a few people moaning on the day of the graphics update that they were expecting more then that. Followed by some suggesting that maybe they're still testing the new set/titles/music and that they'll be updated in a few hours/days/weeks etc.

This place drives me nucking futs sometimes, it really does.

Yeah it is a bit annoying actually. First you trawl through pages of rumours, then you wade your way through complaints.

Look, the only thing that has been hinted at is a graphical change. No date has been confirmed, and there is no confirmation of any other changes. So keep your hair on, because its most likely that nothing will happen on these 'dates' that have been named.

Wait for confirmation from an insider or the BBC its self before you start assuming everything will be changed.

You could see the etched flags ... check out this on YouTube - a very different Jane Hill from 1989 when she presented overnights and you will clearly see them.

There are changes coming on the 15th January in both News 24 and BBC World. Think evolution not revolution.

It was a made up date FFS!

It followed on from the rumours of the wedding of Kate Moss and that awful talentless junkie.

It was a joke!

That we should keep a made up date free for their wedding.
