BBC Four & CBBC to close

[MrBiggieSMLZ]

Merging CBBC and CBeebies makes more sense for me since both channels already targeted similar audience and both are originally named as CBBC pre-2002 (or Children's BBC prior to 1997). The merged channels can carry the original CBBC name or having new name, but it will have a impact for BBC Three. BBC3 will no longer sharing similar prequency as the merged channel, instead they become full-pledged general youth-oriented channel. The BBC can think the merger between two kids channels was unlikely, but still very possible.

Yeah, question is: what could a merged service be called? BBC Junior, perhaps?
