Can someone explain (or point me in the direction of a post that does) what the Broadcast Centre is and how this differs from the continuity suite at TV Centre?

There is no presentation area at TVC any more (with the exception of some of the UKTV channels, for the next month or so) - see http://bbcbroadcast.com/playout/broadcast_centre.shtml

What were the audience figures of Ceefax?

Well, I know of at least one person but not sure if the filter allows it

Tomorrow CBBC and Breakfast have swapped sides - but according to the online schedules the 6-7 CBeebies hour hasn't made it over. Surely they're not just dropping it and putting Ceefax on?

So is CBBC on BBC TWO then? It makes sense. I doubt they'd drop CBeebies for Ceefax all though I'm sure they have done it in the past.

Nah, CBeebies was on 2, must have been a mistake on the website. Although as you say in the past it has been dropped - I think during the Olympics BBC2 closed down for an hour before CBBC started for some reason.
