New look studio 9

on a CBBC note, who is that dreadful woman who's been on the channel with Simon these past few days? I mean I know these are the people who employ Aston but how on earth did she get an interview let alone the job?

I don't know who she is, but she's horrific isn't she

I think she won some talent contest or something - I'm not entirely sure though.

You mean Anne from Stich Up? Short Hair etc? thats the only reason she got the job on CBBC i think as she does shows for them etc.

Who is this 'Anna' - anyone got a screenshot? She isn't the female on in the afternoons on CBBC Channel is she? The one who in the last two days said "Xchange will back at 5.30 this afternoon and at 4.00 [long pause for breath] we have Nelly Nut" She needed to breathe after the word afternoon. Hopefully she will improve - I don't want to see anyone given the boot. I think she needs to calm down - she's rather screamy in your face at the moment, where most of the other presenters are quite relatively casual and relaxed and much the better for it. Must say that the combo they've had on the mornings could well move to higher things - Abs and Rani (I think). They seem to work well together and don't seem to worry if it goes wrong and can cover one another's backs.

She needed to breathe?!

How disgraceful - she should be fired on the spot.

The CBBC Channel has been crackling all day on Selkirk, is that nationwide?

I notice *Anne* is on again today.

where has the CBBC Channel been coming from this week? Are they into TC9 yet, or are they still moving around Television Centre?

Mostly it has come from the BP Garden, they even had them out in the rain before.

I think the CBBC channel links have been coming from TC9 mainly - though this can mean inside or outside? XChange has been coming from Riverside studios in Hammersmith (once home to TFI Friday, more recently TOTP as it moved back to TV Centre, and also the last series of SM:tv Live - though in the 60s the BBC ran the studios!)

BBC One CBBC links have been coming from TC10.

They normally use the TC9 gallery for the garden thinks, unless it is being re-done whilst they have the opportunity.

CD:UK comes from riverside too.

Not sure now - is it possible for TC9 (feeding the CBBC channel) to be inside, and cameras in the garden to feed TC10 (feeding CBBC on BBC One) It wouldn't be a case of just wheeling the TC10 cameras down into the garden (TC10 and 11 don't have Triax cameras - they are multicore and thus can only run for short distances)
