==Presentation== The links between programmes on CBeebies are primarily achieved through the use of [[in-vision continuity]], using presenters to interact with the children. In the UK, links are recorded rather than broadcast live, as is the case on sister channel CBBC. They were originally recorded from studio TC0 at [[BBC Television Centre]] in London, but moved out in 2008 to [[Teddington Studios]], and returned briefly in 2010. From September 2011 onwards, the links have been based at the BBC's northern base at studios HQ5 and HQ6 in [[Dock10 (television facility)|Dock10 studios]] at [[MediaCityUK]] following the move of the BBC Children's department there. As is with the rest of the BBC's channels, there is a lack of [[Advertising|advertisements]] and programmes are occasionally broken up by trailers for new shows, new seasons of said shows or events. ===Logo and identities=== [[File:CBeebies logo 2022.png|thumb|right|Second variant of the 2002 logo used from 20 October 2021 to 14 March 2023 featuring the new 2021 BBC logo. The BBC logo placed above the CBeebies logo instead of below the logo. Also still used as a secondary logo ]] {{main|CBBC idents}} {{see also|History of BBC television idents}} CBeebies uses many identities throughout the day during the breaks in between shows. Most of these idents feature the mascots, named the Bugs, also known as the Bugbies. The Bugbies are yellow blobs with faces, and are similar to the ones used by CBBC between 2002 and 2005, with the only difference being the colour: green for CBBC and yellow for CBeebies with both using purple as a similarity. Most idents before the late 2010's feature children saying the channel name twice once the logo appears except the Bedtime idents. The idents have used a moving blobby, slimy-like background or rounded shapes in any colour. Each block has its own ident, and the Bedtime Hour has a few different idents. In 2016, new idents were made for each block, replacing the old ones and the slimy moving background idents were rarely shown. Idents featuring the CBeebies House with it changing to effect the current season have been used from 2016 to 2023. On 15 March 2023, CBeebies underwent a rebranding by [[Blue Zoo Animation Studio|Blue Zoo]] to fully-adopt the BBC's new [[Logo of the BBC#2020s|corporate branding]], with the Bugs reimagined in a rounded square-shaped form to evoke the BBC logo, and a new suite of idents and animated scenes incorporating two- and three-dimensional elements.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Cbeebies Refresh Animation |url=https://www.blue-zoo.co.uk/animation/cbeebies-refresh |access-date=21 October 2023 |website=Blue Zoo}}</ref>
