What has happened to CBeebies?

We didn't tune in yesterday but switched on at 10am for Teletubbies and there's no sign of it! Not even on BBC2 either. Think the BBC have really made a mess of this. I'm almost on the verge of finding something else for DD2 to watch.

its fine on my tv yesterday and today...

maybe needs re-tuning

purpleturtle · 04/04/2006 10:41

Ours is fine too.

Ellaroo · 04/04/2006 10:47

Isn't it on much earlier (about 8am) because it's the easter holidays?

I can't find it. Just been on the Teletubbies bit of the CBeebies website and it says it isn't on BBC2 but still says it's on at 6am, 10am and 2pm on CBeebies. Not according to our schedules on the Sky Box it isn't!

I'm distraught by the removal of the 8am Balamory slot but quite like the fact that the 8am stuff isnt' repeated again at 4pm, that used to drive me mad.

fishie · 04/04/2006 10:58

i think ellaroo is right, it has been shunted. i tend to use cbeebies for this reason.

fishie · 04/04/2006 10:59

sorry shoudl read cbeebies channel (sky 617)

Tommy · 04/04/2006 11:30

I think it's been changed around. Do you have a Radio Times or something?
(another one personally glad that Teletubbies isn't on at that time )

coppertop · 04/04/2006 11:35

Ds2 was looking forward to his usual 2pm Teletubbies yesterday but instead there were 2 episodes of Big Cook Little Cook. Ds2 was not impressed.

LilacBump · 04/04/2006 11:36

they changed the programming. it's dreadful. just a mess with lots of dubble bills and repeats.

Tommy · 04/04/2006 11:37

whereas my DSs were delighted with that coppertop!
(can't win)

coppertop · 04/04/2006 11:40

LOL Tommy! :o I think my ds1 was pleased about it too. :o

tillykins · 04/04/2006 11:45

and who is that new woman?

Kidstrack2 · 04/04/2006 11:47

it changes around sometimes during holidays, think maybe cause its easter holidays they swap some of the programes around!

I don't think it's changed because of the holidays. Just been on the grown-ups part of the CBeebies website and their messageboard, and this all seems to be part of a "new look". Teletubbies is now on at 6am and that's it. Not very impressed.

My DS is distraught that Charlie and Lola has disappeared from the Bedtime hour – me too, I hate the bldy Fimbles!!

mummygow · 04/04/2006 12:10

Kidstrack2 · 04/04/2006 12:20

my dd is in the land of nod at that time 6.am, just need to look out ds old tellytubby videos

Kidstrack2 · 04/04/2006 12:22

bought charlie and lola's first dvd the other day, dd is having to wait till 30th May for her 3rd birthday, at this rate i might give her it early

RTKangaMummy · 04/04/2006 12:27

DO what we did with DS when he was younger

Make your own videos record a mixture of their favourite programmes onto a 3 hour tape

And then they can watch it whenever they like and it will be free !!!!!!!!!!!!

Scabbybaboon · 04/04/2006 14:45

They re-hash their progs all the time and I'm getting a bit sick of it.

I'm gutted that they've shelved the 8.00 Balamory. Poor little DS was asking where it was yesterday morning. Sitting on his bean bag wondering what the nora had happened to his favourite show.

He likes Boogie Beebies, but one after the other is a bit much imo, why not leave Balamory where it is then put BB on after?

In fact why can't they just leave it all alone?

I understand how they need to move programmes around but Teletubbies was always on at fixed moments of the day. I don't think there's anything for really young children i.e the 9/10 months to 1 year olds on there now.
