I can't be sure if any of this is true but thanks for reading.
Also, Dick and Dom have had their own sitcom commissioned, called the Legend of Dick and Dom. The 13 episode series filmed over the summer. As well as this CBBC have commissioned 20x30mins compilation episodes of Dick and Dom in da Bungalow.

They spent quite a bit of their Radio 1 slot yesterday plugging it after 'a listener' commented on having seen them filming during the week. Apparently it's due to be shown around January time.

Okay, at the risk of sounding like Tumble Tower...
So, it's almost one year since CBBC relaunched. I think we can all agree that it's been succesful, but what would you improve firstly, with a blank cheque, and also with the current cost cutting climate?
And how does CBBC compare now to 2002?
Personally, I think that Ed and Oucho are brilliant - in fact, the only presenter I can think of in recent history who equals the pair is Matt Edmondson - who really felt like he wanted the job. Ed and Oucho have brought something special to the job, some life - often with CBBC, and certainly when I watched it as somebody in the target audience, the presenters made the viewer feel patronised, and as if these links between shows were an interruption to their party!
The thing I would improve with a blank cheque - more presenters. There was something about the 2002 CBBC that felt good - loads of presenters which gave it a great atmosphere.
I've got to agree with you about that. I love Ed and Oucho as well, but it would just be better if they had more presenters (good ones, not bad patronising ones like Ben and Ciaran). Looking back at the CBBC Channel 2002 clips, it just seemed it was more involved then, I thinkthey should re-introduce competitions. Just made it interesting

Something from the past? If its Otis the Aardvark, i will run down the street and quite possibly be naked.

Most of the things Id suggest probably aren't costly - it's all basic scheduling really, and basically going back in time.
TMi - CBBC needs to reclaim Saturday mornings on BBC1, and this is the show to do it.
CBBC on BBC1 finishing at 5.30pm, with Newsround at 4.55pm, followed by their flagship programme of the day at 5.05pm
Talking of flagship programmes, I really don't see how a third episode of Blue Peter would be any more expensive to produce than filling the slot with a completely separate show
Finally, the show needs a new Grange Hill / Byker Grove for this generation, a drama which is more reflective of most kids everyday life than the likes of MI High and that Doctor Who spin off.
What is that brain thing with Holly? When it was posted something from the past, I was thinking that either Mike from SMart would be back in the laptop, or that the turkey from Christmas was going to return, which may have been a better option. Does this brain talk, and is it English, or a different language?
Speaking of a new puppet, has anybody got any idea of who does the puppets for CBBC, they have had many different ones over the past year including Oucho's family, the tapeworm, the hamster and the turkey to name a few. And do they get the actors from a comedy agency, I've seen that a few of them have featured on various comedy programmes alone, and in acts together.
As for Holly, she is an alright presenter, and she will most probably become a better presenter over the next three months. It is a shame that Ed and Oucho aren't on air, I don't think that they'd have been missed as much if they were away for 3 months over the summer, and returned in September.
Failing that I think that they should have moved around things, or bring in a sofa rather than keeping the office set whilst Ed & Oucho are away, and maybe go for two presenters, or just have got Dick & Dom in to cover, they seem to still be popular with the kids, and would be similar to the comedy injected by Ed & Oucho, but different.
As for improving CBBC, this year has been great, the rebrand has taken the channel and branding in a totally different direction to the previous look that had no strengths at all in my opinion, granted, it was made of arrows and little else.
I think the biggest disapointments of last year was the shortening of TMi, and what they did with Blue Peter. Both should be resolved, but part of me feels that it won't be sorted anytime soon.

I saw a link just after Newsround and the brain speaks English but speaks slowly and the mouth doesn't really corrospond with the talking. Basically this puppet is really for the younger viewers, there isn't the subtle adult humour you get with Oucho.
