Indeed it was a special dog for the coverage of the junior great north run.
They used part of an animadness animation where the A runs off and drops it's eye, though the way that it kept repeating was horrible. They should have just had it run off to reveal Junior Great North run or something and then have it go back to the usual dog for 10-20 seconds.

I'll add it into here as it was the nearest CBBC post.
Was watching CBBC at 4:30, when they must have had 5 minutes to fill, and so they went on a tour of the BBC TV Centre. Visiting Studio 2 with X Change, went to is it Studio 3(?) to the Top Of the Pops Saturday Set, then to Studio 6 for Dick & Dom, Studio 7 for Newsround, Then to a big studio for blue peter, but they were in the garden, went there, then through Studio 9 and then back to their studio!
It was interesting to see them all, and a cool way to find out what was going on today and over the weekend. So many live shows, and all in one place, such a great idea, hopefully this will be how it would work if they moved to Manchester, where by CBBC have their own studios for dedicated shows, though looking today, they've taken up most of the BBC already!
They also made a comment about not having time to see the weekend programmes, but I thought that was sneaky as isn't Smile filmed outside of the BBC? And The UK Top 40 uses the new CBBC studio.

It was all recorded so that they could speed up them running from Studio to Studio. Yes they did show them entering Studio 6, and walking down a corridor, and then they next showed them walking down the corridor on the right hand side of the bungalow leading to the two rooms that I presume should be their bedrooms but don't have bed's in (if my memory serves me right), and even if they did, they're supposed to share a room as they do on the titles, not a bed though in Morcombe and Wise style!
So they never actually shownt them walking over and onto the set as such. But they did show you that it was in a studio.
Though when they got there every one else had told them what was going on (and it did look as though they'd just run around TVC with a camera man and were crashing rehersals, perhaps they were bored this afternoon!), they entered da bungalow and Dick just smiled and silently stared at the camera whilst Dom was on the phone to Nanny Nobnobs, and then shouted at them to leave.
I was thinking earlier how far da bungalow had come, not in terms of viewers, in terms of the size of the actual bungalow.
Original viewers will know that it started from the CBBC Channel Studio, thus why the main living room/kitchen part of da bungalow takes that shape as it was built around the old studio, and that was it, bar the toilet!
Where as they've now got the main room, the toilet, the two rooms, the basement, the walkway to the left of the main room, and now even have the attic, even though it's just a little area over the top of the kitchen.
The attic is a great addition in the fact that it's actually been built on top of the set.
I'm taking an educated guess, but I don't think that the basement is under the main room. At a stab in the dark, I expect that they have a set either the main room's built on a platform so that they can walk down the stairs as normal, or through the door they have a set of stairs that they have to walk up (not on camera) to then walk down the ones that are and into the basement.
Who knows what they'll add next year, maybe a garage!
By the way, was this still the Junior Great North Run dog, with the animated runner, or are you just on about the normal dog?

When Dom gave me my tour of the bungalow we walked down a stairs to the cellar. I made out this to show you what the set really looks like:

Were the jokes are done in the toilet is the real toilet. They record them before the show and the bungalow head just stands in the "toilet"
If you have any more questions of the bungalow, just ask!!

Interesting. So is the main set built off the studio floor then? I presume there are only about 5 steps down to the basement.
Strange place to have the stairs too. So when they walk through the door to go down to the basement they have to then leg it round the set and down the stairs. It would surely have made sense to have the stairs on the right, though that would also make da bungalow, seem (in fiction building terms), a massive property.
I think I get what you mean about the toilet. The one labelled Toilet Not, where they walk to on the set is just a room, where as the one where the Turtle Head and they get gunged is fake. Also makes sense to why it takes so long for them to get to the toilet to get gunged. I wonder why they didn't just build a bigger part of the set, especially in TC6, it's a big space for just the bungalow.

I noticed that on Saturday's gunging as they cut to the 'toilet' you could see one of the production team hastily getting out of shot (ooops!).
It is obvious the real toilet is in a different place due to when they use the 'airing' cupboard. On Sunday you could see the area left of the cupboard when it was open and there was no toilet there. I noticed Dom trying to open the lower half of the 'airing' cupboard this weekend when the cheerleaders were in it. Funny how the lower half had been taped up.
I assume the attic must be located just above the basement according to those plans.
