Quite an impressive selection of new programmes and shorts on CBBC and CBeebies for children stuck at home announced earlier:

"BBC Children's" - have we gone back to the 80s?

That’s the name of the department isn’t it?

Well, indeed. How else are you going to describe a department that runs both CBBC and CBeebies?

I thought it was called 'BBC Children's Department' or 'BBC Children's Productions'

Blue Peter is getting a new presenter according to this: https://www.bbc.co.uk/schedules/p00fzl9r/2020/05/14

Funnily enough their first show will be in the same week as Richie’s first show last year. I presume that they are a 3rd presenter, unless Lindsey is leaving, but it hasn’t been mentioned yet.

Intriguing, judging by Lindsey's constant gushing of the Blue Peter team on Instagram/Twitter I don't think she's likely to be leaving any time soon. I'm quite surprised that Naomi Wilkinson hasn't been made permanent as she seems to have proved very popular when she's guest hosted (including only a few weeks back!)

Wouldn't be surprised if Lindsey is leaving.

She'll soon be the longest running presenter in over 12 years after Konnie Huq (she's currently only 2 weeks behind Barney Harwood).

Highly unlikely they'd make a 45 year old a Blue Peter presenter. Even Barney was pushing on a bit when he got the job and he was 30.

Lindsey doesn’t really do much outside of Blue Peter, that was the main reason why Radzi left as he had made it big in the industry. Barney never really got that, he wanted to do something else which is why he left.

Naomi is a good shout, but I think she doesn’t want to be permanent of she would’ve got the job long ago.

I dunno why but I feel like Lindsey should on something like Saturday Mash-Up and Naomi should be on Blue Peter

Today’s Blue Peter was a bit different. They had a 4 minute message before from Lindsey, which started saying that the programme was filmed before the outbreak, which moved on to other news about the show (fan of the month, thanks for getting involved). Naomi was hosting with Richie and Lindsey as well. Still nothing about the new presenter.

Oh, and Recorded Before Current Restrictions pop up when every single new clip plays. Even when they explicitly state they were filmed months ago.
