Throughout Shannon Matthews's 24-day long disappearance, the BBC News Channel can be seen on television sets in various scenes set in various locations around the Dewsbury area, such as the Brown household and a local takeaway.
Shannon went missing between 19 February and 14 March 2008. At the time, the BBC News Channel was still known as "BBC News 24" and was still branded as such on screen. The rebranding on the channel from "BBC News 24" to the "BBC News Channel" (known as just "BBC News" on screen) did occur in 2008, but not until 21 April, some 62 days after Shannon was reported missing.
