Interesting to see the launch evening will be shown on BBC Two too. Simulatanous continuity? Mixture of BBC Two/Four idents? (Wouldn't that be nice!) Or individual contiunity? (Doubtful as they'll be wanting to promote it as much as possible)
Then there's the other questions - DOGs? Introduction on 2? 'This is BBC Two joining BBC Four!'
Cheers, Asa

No, BBC FOUR News will only be on weeknights at 2000GMT with George Alagiah. AFAIK, BBC World will resume normal BBC World News bulletin at 2000 at weekends.

I'm not sure about this one, but because BBC Four News is on at weekends at 2000hours, is it also shown on World?

Has anyone else noticed that on that picture on the BBC Four Web site it has the logo on the bottom left - I don't know about you but on all of the BBC Two posters I've seen the logo has been on the bottom right, like on the idents. I think this probably means that the Four logo will be on the bottom left! I knew this would happen as soon as I saw the new Two idents - leaves flexibility for the other BBC channel logo positions.
