Get the new RT - lots of stuff about the new shows in there. It seems that BBC TWO's school programmes will also be on CBBC. I wonder what DOG they'll use on that...

And I want to know if they'll bring back the schools clock...

No schools shows next week. On BBC or C4, I think its that usual 3 weeks around half term as schools always seem to do it differently these days.

That's interesting - the presenters of the CBBC channel. So are Liam and Adrian just going to do CBBC on One from now on? Does anyone know if all the presenters will be shared between CBBC and CBBC on One and Two? Is that Chris Jarvis on the right!? Will Konnie start presenting CBBC now? (Full of questions, me!) Also, nice to see that Fearne Cotton seems to have fully defected to CBBC now.

Fearnes got no choice she's fully contracted now (cant see pic) but that pic is of everyone who will work on programmes as well as present for CBBC, so Konnie will be a blue peter and top 20 presenter.

I think you'll find there are more presenters than are in the photo - the last I heard it was a team of 14 ....

Wait a minute - that IS Chris Jarvis isn't it? Didn't he present CBBC some years ago?

Yeah, he did a stint in 1997 - never expected him to come back! Just saw him this morning doing a channel 4 Maths programme.

Didn't Fearne present 'mouse' and 'fingertips' on CiTV until very recently? And I'm sure I saw her in the CiTV studio around Christmas time...

Chris Jarvis... Does anyone remember that spoof sketch they used to do in the mornings, wood Lane TV. They came to Southsea to do a special, which I remember 'cause I was there. Chris does loads of voiceovers. As for Fearne, I happen to know that she got offered a lot of money to defect to BBC.
