Children's BBC Presentation was the BBC's presentation of its programmes for children and which was the only part of BBC One and BBC Two's television presentation where the continuity announcer appeared on the TV screen rather than as a voice over.

The services for children on BBC One and BBC Two (apart from on BBC Two on Saturday mornings) have now ended but similar presentation now takes place on the CBeebies and CBBC channels.

History

[edit]

In-vision presentation is as old as the first children's programme on the BBC which began on Saturday 24 April 1937. For the Children would go on to be most famously presented live by Annette Mills with her sidekick Muffin the Mule.[1] These early shows were live performances but as the television service became more sophisticated, with the development of pre-recorded programmes and series, children's programmes went on to be introduced by the offscreen continuity announcer announcing the next programme from a small continuity booth with the usual BBC1 or BBC2 branding appearing on screen although some special branding was put in use to reflect better the audience they were serving.[2]

In 1984, a BBC Micro B 3D Collage was introduced to generate computer generated stings for the children's strand. Such animations were used to introduce programmes, such as a spider spinning down onto a detonator triggering the words Hello from BBC1, and to link into promotions for further programmes, such as a group of sky divers falling from a plane to spell out a 'Later' caption. However, despite the graphics, programmes were still directly introduced by the BBC1 globe symbol, albeit occasionally accompanied by a choice of two different 14-note synthesized tunes.[3]

In September 1985 a BBC press release announced the arrival of, "a new package of programmes specially gift-wrapped for children."[4] This involved the afternoon programmes on BBC1 being rebranded as Children's BBC, along with the continuity announcer appearing on screen (in-vision). Rather than use the existing BBC1 announcer, a new presenter was selected. The launch presenter was Phillip Schofield, presenting the slot for the first time at 15:55 BST on 9 September 1985.[5]

It was not until 1994 that presentation for children's programming got its own studio space.

In 2002, when BBC Children's divided its services into CBBC and CBeebies, programmes for younger children were rebranded under the name CBeebies and the same production department began CBeebies Presentation.

Presentation across CBBC and CBeebies was suspended temporarily in September 2022 because of the death and state funeral of Queen Elizabeth II. Both channels continued to broadcast normal programming without any in-vision presentation in contrast to competitor channel CITV, which opted to simulcast ITV's funeral coverage.

Studios

[edit]

1985–1994

[edit]

From its launch in 1985 until 1994, Children's BBC was presented from the regular continuity announcer's booth in the BBC1 network control area (NC1), which had a fixed camera so that the presenter could appear in vision; as it remained an operational continuity booth, the presenter would partly direct their own links by way of vision and sound mixers built into the studio desk.[5]

The NC1 booth became known as 'the Broom Cupboard' due to its small size (the term was first used to refer to a smaller temporary booth, but was later retroactively applied to the main booth). The plain booth wall behind the presenter would be livened up with elements of set dressing, VT monitors and pictures sent in by viewers.[6]

Occasionally, when Children's BBC was going out on BBC2 rather than BBC1 due to events coverage, the presenter would be located in the BBC2 continuity booth, which was not set dressed for Children's BBC, for transmission purposes.

There were two presentation studios – larger than the Broom Cupboards but smaller than full programme studios – known as Pres A and Pres B. It was not initially thought economically viable to use these for daily Children's BBC links, hence the use of the Broom Cupboard. However, by 1987 these studios were being used for the mid-morning 'birthday card' slots and weekend and holiday morning strands such as But First This. The main afternoon strand remained in the Broom Cupboard.[7]

Initially, Children's BBC Scotland did not have a presentation studio upon launch in 1992 - instead it was presented upon various locations across Scotland for the school summer holiday programming block The Ice Cream Van at the beginning, presentation studios were eventually used for the regional breakfast and mid-morning shows when BBC Scotland opened their kids department around the mid-1990s before finally reverting to the roof top of BBC Scotland's Queen Margaret Drive headquarters for another summer holiday children's programme Up For It in the late 1990s.

In 1994, Pres A was refurbished and became the regular home for all Children's BBC presentation including the weekday afternoon block; the presenters no longer had to operate the broadcast equipment, although a broom cupboard-style area in the corner of Pres A containing its own mixer was used for the birthday slot and weekend mornings to save on crew, and the larger set allowed for more dynamic presentation, with more presenters, characters, features, games and guests. A new 3D version of the then logo of Children's BBC was commissioned to mark the move.[8]

1997 TC9

[edit]

In 1997, Children's BBC moved again when 'Pres A' was decommissioned and CBBC moved to the purpose-built Studio TC9, adjacent to the Blue Peter garden at BBC Television Centre. The first broadcasts from Studio 9 were in June 1997[8] and this was followed in October by the launch of the new-look CBBC branding.[9] TC9 continued to be the regular home of CBBC broadcasts on BBC One and Two until 2005 and was also used to record CBBC on Choice links between 2000 and 2002.

In 2002, TC2 became the home of CBBC Channel links, plus the channel's XChange and UK Top 40 programmes, whilst CBeebies operated from the smaller TC0.

In Autumn 2004, the studio arrangements for CBBC were changed again. The CBBC Channel moved from TC2 to TC9, with BBC One / Two links and the UK Top 40 show moving to TC1, located on the sixth floor of TV Centre. BBC One and Two links then moved back into TC9 alongside CBBC Channel in March 2006 as the number of studios available to CBBC was reduced.

In December 2006, there was a further reduction in CBBC facilities. A chroma key set was assembled in studio TC12, becoming the home of all CBBC links on BBC One, BBC Two and CBBC Channel until September 2007. There was also a reduction in the team of on air presenters. The last live CBBC links from TC9 were broadcast on Friday 1 December 2006; the studio was then mothballed but was later brought back into use for individual programmes including TMi and SMart.

2007 TC12

[edit]

On 3 September 2007, the CSO studio was dropped in a relaunch which saw a small studio set built in TC12.[10] As part of the relaunch, new logos, presenters and idents were introduced. The design of the new 'office' set has been compared to the original 'broom cupboard', though unlike the 'broom cupboard' the 'office' is not a functioning continuity suite.

2011 HQ5

[edit]

CBBC presentation originated from Studio HQ5 at Dock10, MediaCityUK in Salford Quays for the first time on Monday 5 September 2011 as part of the relocation of the BBC's Children's department (incorporating both CBBC and CBeebies).

In 2015, the CBBC Office set received a new futuristic look, with much darker colours and tones, the light and dark greens colours replaced with purple and dark grey. Also, a new 'up next' screen was placed behind the presenter, and a post chute was installed in the new set where viewers send post to get read out live on air. There was also a new desk, larger than the previous one with multi-coloured blocks on its front.

In 2016, the CBBC Office became the CBBC HQ, incorporating a mostly orange and blue colour scheme, but later it changed to cyan and blue in 2023.

2023 and 2024

[edit]

Another reduction in CBBC facilities occurred in December 2023. A temporary Newsround set and a chroma key set were assembled in the CBeebies HQ6 studio, with the HQ5 studio being converted to a general-purpose chroma key studio. The last CBBC studio links from HQ5 were broadcast throughout December 2023 and January 2024 along with pre-recorded CSO links, culminating in the live launch of the chroma key studio on Friday 12 January 2024.

Nations opt-out

[edit]

The Scottish school holiday opt-outs started on BBC Scotland in the mid-1970s – where the summer holiday children's schedule (seen across the BBC network for the final three weeks between mid- and late August) would be time-shifted to air throughout the first three weeks of the holidays between late June and mid-July to only viewers in Scotland owing to school holiday differences across the UK. Year-long children's programmes were introduced by the offscreen continuity announcer from a small continuity booth with the usual BBC1 or BBC2 branding appearing on screen until this was phased out from the main afternoon block in September 1985.

Despite the national Children's BBC being aired on BBC One and BBC Two across the UK since the very beginning in September 1985, BBC Scotland would go on to produce and air their regional version of CBBC in the Scottish school holidays (in the first week of July and second week of October). Those opt outs were initially aired on BBC One Scotland from the beginning in June 1992 until October 1996, whilst BBC Two Scotland picked up Scottish school holiday opt-out programming for the first time in October 1994 and continuing in this medium for a further six years, ending altogether in July 2000.

1970s

[edit]

In summer 1974, BBC One Scotland started up their summer holiday opt out schedules for the very first time on Monday 24 June 1974[11] where the majority of children's programmes transmitted in the mid-morning slot (at various times between 9am - 11am) were introduced out-of-vision by the Scottish continuity announcer behind the BBC 1 Scotland globe idents back then, the yearly opt-outs continued in this medium for a further eleven years before finally ending on Friday 19 July 1985[12] by which point the BBC were planning to revamp their children's output by launching a newly branded children's block due to launch on the network the following September, known as Children's BBC which would be broadcast live from the Broom Cupboard at Television centre in London starting from 9 September 1985.

1980s

[edit]

Meanwhile, BBC Scotland launched their new weekday children's programme for the Scottish school summer holidays in the mid-1980s, the new show was billed as C.T.V.1, presented by Ross King and Rhoda McLeod that aired in the mid-morning slot on BBC One Scotland between 9:20am and 10:20am for three weeks between 7 and 25 July 1986, displacing Pages from Ceefax that was seen elsewhere around the UK at the time.,[13]

This was followed by a few years of mostly Dòtaman repeats airing prior to the national Children's BBC throughout the late 1980s and early 1990s, with another children's series called The McMeanies airing directly after the 10am national and regional news throughout the first week of July 1989 (3 - 7 July at 10am - 10.25am)[14]

Early 1990s

[edit]

In 1991, BBC Scotland started up another live children's magazine programme called Breakout that was initially aired as a couple of one-off shows in the February half-term break (18 February) and Easter holidays (29 March) between 9.05am - 10am on BBC One Scotland then finally aired a week-long series over the summer holidays of 1991 (1 - 5 July), airing at 11.05am - 11.55am on BBC One Scotland, the show was presented by Ashley Jensen and Bill Petrie.[15][16][17]

In June 1992, BBC Scotland finally launched their regional version of Children's BBC (billed Children's BBC Scotland as an opt out from the network) with their own presentation and presenters on a brand new school Summer holiday programming block called The Ice Cream Van (a Scottish equivalent of But First This) presented by a team of three lively and enthusiastic hosts consisting of Dotaman's John Urquhart, Di Christie and Steve McKenna who alternated with each other every three days by taking a trip to various locations around Scotland in the show's Ice Cream Van to introduce a sparkling line-up of TV entertainment for Scottish youngsters to brighten up their break from school, including eight episodes of Harry and the Hendersons Series 1 that were yet to be screened in Scotland at the time.

Other shows in the Scottish summer holiday slot included Go 4 X with Sally Gray and Grant Stott, Class Tracks (29th June and 10th July only), By the Way with Di Christie and Steve McKenna and the popular network pre-school favourites Playdays and Bananaman airing after the 10am national and regional news, The Ice Cream Van was aired live in the mid-morning slot on BBC One Scotland at 9:05am–10:35am for a fortnightly period between 29 June until 10 July, the only year Children's BBC Scotland was run for the first two weeks in July respectively.[18][19][20][17][21][22]

Mid 1990s

[edit]

Children's BBC Scotland returned in the summer of 1993 on BBC One Scotland, now presented by Grant Stott and Di Christie from a newly-acquired presentation studio in the same mid-morning slot (9.05am - 10.35am) for the first week of the Summer holidays between 5 and 9 July and again in the second week of the October half-term holidays (18 - 22 October) - starting at 9.05am with new episodes of Go 4 X in the first week of July featuring an overhauled presentation team of Lewis MacLeod, Craig McMurdo, Esther McVey and Surinder Sangray taking on hosting duties with each other in a programme full of mystery fun and adventure, airing at the same timeslot of 9.05am over the October break was a short-lived series called GO TV featuring pop interviews, breakfast recipes, and a DIY slot forming part of early morning madness and fun with the Breakfast Crew.

Grant Stott presented solo from a lunar base studio the following summer of 1994, without a co-host for the next two years, where Scottish CBBC was aired in the same timeslot (9.05am - 10.35am) on BBC One Scotland between 4–8 July, featuring 1960s cartoon fun with The Flintstones at 9.05am, followed by series two of Megamag with Mairi and Steve at 9.30am then pre-school programmes Playdays, Poddington Peas (4 July only) and Rupert airing after the 10am news throughout the second half-hour between 10.05am - 10.35am, By which time the Flintstones was aired nationwide after CBBC on the network at 10.35am, except for viewers in Scotland who saw the 1993 series of Hot Chefs airing directly after Scottish CBBC at the aforementioned time.[27][17][28]

Later on in the year, Grant returned to host a new series of week-long breakfast shows airing live on BBC Two Scotland in the second week of the October half-term holidays of 1994 by linking episodes of Buzzy Bee and Friends, Poddington Peas, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles along with repeats of various afternoon CBBC shows including long-running shows Blue Peter, Record Breakers and the recently-launched Fan TC and SMart airing between 7.00am - 8.00am respectively (17 - 21 October), where for the next few years, the Children's BBC breakfast show from Scotland went out at the same time as the national version broadcast from London to the rest of the UK - The October holiday mid-morning slot on BBC One Scotland was presented out-of-vision by the continuity announcers with more episodes of Flintstones and Megamag airing between 9.05am - 10.00am throughout the same week.
