Well, it's going to be me and Oucho the cactus in our office at the BBC. We'll be on from 4-7pm (I think!), introducing the shows, playing stupid games with the viewers, drinking tea, eating biscuits

I did read a rumour recently that CBBC was returning to a broom cupboard-style of presentation, and this does sound like it - maybe it's because people who grew up with the broom cupboard are now running television?! Wink

well, you could sing C-BBC to the 2002 jingle, so does this mean it's an instrumental piece which is in time with the syllables?

Well I suppose recent news events will make the new music seem quite appropriate... Twisted Evil

Recently a "Celebration Of Youth" day was held down this way - wonder what the sideshows were. Demos in housebreaking, TWOC, successful stabbing, being abusive to passers-by?

well TBH, that's what happens when the government tries to 'reach out' to the youth, in what seems to be the most patronising way possible.

When the CBBC channel first launched, where was it coming from? Because CBBC1&2 was coming from TC9.

TC2, shared mainly with Xchange, but many other programmes, like the Newsround short bulletins.

616 is the actual Number of the Beast according to the earliest manuscript of the Book of Revelation found to date. Maybe it's superstition...
