Sorry, Metropol doesn't seem to work on my laptop.


In what way doesn't it work? What browser / os etc? PM me if needs be.

Personally I think its just my laptop in general.

Its currently away being fixed so I'm using my phone for TVF so there's another reason why Metropol is inaccessible.

Apart from discussing the many forums this could fit into, I thought I'd contribute a upload on 4Shared of the Newsround 1972-1986 56second opening theme and full length ending theme (yes! There was a bit before the sting that nobody heard!)

I'm not tempted to download that link, all those download sites seem dodgy to me.

However the full tune isn't really that rare, I assume this is the same as that link, possibly even longer.

That link doesn't include the full length ending theme.

Well it certainly needs an apostrophe - along with his sign-on Rolling Eyes

The full end music isn't rare either - it's called "New Worlds" and is by the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. Both original themes are - or have been - commercially available.

I've noticed the CBBC bulletins are frequently around five minutes long these days, not far off the BBC One length, so perhaps the plan is to have a few of them rather than focus on the main one. Certainly you'll probably see a reshuffle of the CBBC schedule when BBC1 ends as there is a 5.15 junction currently to catch anyone switching over at the end of the BBC1 block (anyone...anyone at all?).

They could keep the 5:15 junction and just move the main Newsround bulletin to CBBC Channel, keeping it's 5pm timeslot.

But the actual 5pm bulletin is only about 6.5 minutes in length!!!
