-Merge CBBC and CBeebies to become The all new CBBC Channel.
-Merge All English Radio FM channels to become BBC Radio England FM.
-Merge All English Radio AM channels to become BBC Radio England AM.
-Merge BBC World News and BBC News channels to become BBC World News.

That will save broadcasting costs big time.

We can confirmed that DNP rumour is about new channels that may launch by end of 2015.

Our Sources has not given us any info on HISTORY HD launching on July 14th (I think that was an date you posted last month).

As of June 30th HISTORY HD is not even testing on Virgin Media.

I'd agree regarding the children's channels, but not the radio. there is far too much diversity for it all to be centralised.

Weekdays:
6am to 10am
4pm to 7pm.

Weekends:
6am to 9am
12pm to 6pm

The BBC can then pick the best DJs for England Wide shows.

If it good for other local Radio channels it can easy come to BBC Local Radio.

Quite a few of 'flive live extras' evening sports coverage for rugby too says 'joins up with BBC Radio " (local name) " for live commentary.

I suspect mosts evenings - they is something local going out somewhere on the BBC local radio channels.

I don't know about other local BBC stations, MB, but radio Cambs already merges with BBC three counties from 7pm until 6am. If I remember correctly, the idea of merging the stations during the day was not well received when it was mooted some years ago.
