Though that was in 2005, before BBC Three was universally available, I do wonder if it will be any more successful this time around.The document acknowledges 60 seconds but it looks like they would do away with showing it at the top of the hour. So everything is condensed into those four minutes once BBC Three takes over from CBBC.
In fact, reading further it looks like it will only be a brief 3-4 minute bulletin, rather than a full-blown programme as before.
If the new channel goes ahead as a final decision it will be interesting to see how they present news output there
