Even older than that, as TCC did the same as well.

In fact, they even used the normal voiceover claiming they'd be back the next morning!

Carlton Kids disappeared totally and failed to acknowledge it on air; the TCC situation is muddied by the fact it didn't actually completely close then - Cable & Wireless kept it going with a locally played out version for several months.

I actually suspect that there might something similar afoot with CITV - I note the recent press release from ITV states that "the CITV broadcast channel will close in early Autumn" (my bold). Perhaps I'm reading in to things. Either way an obvious opportunity for redirection is being missed; you'd think they'd at least swap out the generic 'on CITV' trailers.
