CITV is being shown on ITV2 now with no on-screen logos, and CBBC on BBC Two.
It looks like although CBBC is in widescreen, the programmes haven't been cropped to 14:9, well Pingu wasn't! :

Quote:
Two planes have smashed into the World Trade Centre towers in New York in what is being described as the worst terrorist attack in history.
It is reported two United Airlines passenger planes were hijacked shortly before the strike - at least one was thought to be a 737 capable of carrying more than 100 passengers.
The first plane smashed into the top stories of the tower, leaving two gaping holes in the side.
Minutes later another aircraft approached, turned in the air and crashed into the lower storeys of the second tower - the footage was seen live on TV stations around the world.
The second explosion ripped through several floors.
More than 50,000 workers would have been in the building at the height of the morning rush-hour.
A person who answered the phone on the trading floor at interdealer-broker Cantor Fitzgerald, located near the top of the World Trade Center, said: 'We're dying,' then hung up. There was screaming and yelling in the background. A follow up call was not answered.
If confirmed as a terrorist attack it would be one of the worst in history.
'This has got to be one of the most horrendous terrorist attacks perhaps ever perpetrated,' terrorism expert Chris Yates told Sky News.
The 110-storey 1,360ft tower is in lower Manhattan.
In February 1993 six people died when a truck bomb was planted in the twin tower's underground car park in a terrorist attack.

Radio 1 has scrapped programming and are broadcasting a similar sort of service to the one they were running a couple of days after Diana died, with Chris Moyles announcing the news after every couple of songs.
