If that '3D' logo is the refresh in question, does it remind anybody else of when ITV2 adopted that 3D look to their logo that made it look even more balls on screen?

A refreshed on screen look for CBBC from Monday apparently. The logo will be "3D", and the music is tweaked.


Where did you hear this?

The "refresh" is from next Friday, not Monday, it would appear.


Yes it is part of "CBBC Fab Fridays"

Any changes to the studio in this refresh? Or is it still the same powerpoint done bad office?


Office is being 'refreshed', basically back as it was before the summer set was put in. TMi will have new opening titles, although they're based on last year's, just darker to give it a more 'evening' feel. The Powerpoint will remain!

A new promo was on CBBC today 'CBBC this Autumn', with a 3D logo.

Is the logo and the look of the promo the refreshed CBBC design?

Thanks for the info, I suppose there's no point in doing anything major to the studio as their moving up to Salford next year.

I thought they looked a little darker in the autumn promo.

Warrick Brownlow-Pike - aka Oucho - has tweeted to say the following:

_ Warrick_ is excited about #CBBC Broom Cupboards 25th Birthday celebration tomorrow! Tune in from 4pm to catch lots of SURPISES! Old favourites ahoy!

Tomorrow - 9th September - is indeed the 25th anniversary of the Broom Cupboard's first appearance - should be interesting to see what they do! I think the last time they celebrated the anniversary was 10 years in 1995, which is of course on You Tube.

What is this PowerPoint that keeps being mentioned?

To sum up, when it comes to graphics used in links, CBBC has completely gone downhill to the standard of bad mocks.

Would it kill them to hire a professional to design some proper astons?!

I haven't seen much CBBC presentation since the 2007 rebrand but if the above shots are representative of the state of the current package then it's appalling how drastically standards have been allowed to slip.

Unfortunately it's only a small part of a much wider decline in standards across the BBC in recent years.
