Some excellent, but perhaps not surprising figures from BBC Children's and Education. In the seven days up to 29th March, CBBC programmes were requested a record 10.6m times, and CBeebies 27.1m times. That's nearly double an average week for CBBC, and 50% up for CBeebies.

And, whilst there may be no immediate prospect of serious exams, the key revision aid, BBC Bitesize, has attracted a record of 4.8m average weekly unique visitors, beating the previous record of 3.3m set in May 2017.
