I'm sure I haven't been drinking tonight but from the looks of the last junction on ITV1 Yorkshire I may have been!

The trailer for Yorkshire Steam faded into the end of one for "Go North West" which shows that the whole GMG North operation is still based on the Granada feed.

Then we got an ident into a filler programme and the announcer said "It's coming up to 12.30 now on ITV1 Norwich, time now for Pulling Power"


on central there was a still ident at 11.30, silent. at 12.00 there was a non-regional ident into rock legends and at 12.25 there was a 'central' ident into pulling power. how odd.

What kind of Central ident? The cake by any chance*?

When the programme Granada had finished showing it showed an odd endcap. It looked something like this.

Wouldn't it just be easier to get rid of the empty yellow box.

Westcountry was mentioned 3 times in a row Friday. On screen and voiceover during the regional slots and in voiceover going into a network programme. It seems that regional names are mentioned during the night, but not in day time? Confused

Don't suppose anyone knows when the TV Room website is getting updated Confused: As ITV have had their new re brand in place for a few weeks now, the TV Room don't seem to many idents or trailers to download. And most pages sat image available soon.

Also, I am surprised that ITV haven't updated their sports package, as NIgel Pickard said back in September that they would Twisted Evil and the Movie Premier sting hasn't changed!!! So much for a total re brand Exclamation

There's a thread for the tv room in the media weebsites forum, it was near the top, if not the top.
I was confused over this. I'm sure it will happen in due course for sport and movies.

I posted a mock I think on this thread with the ITV Sport in the ITV News style. Perhaps they will go for this instead of the current idea, as how would the 3 boxes line up with the yellow rectangle.
Mind you, local regions are using the chiselled ITV logo (no boxes) and yellow rectangle at the end of the news and local programmes, when again they could do a similar thing to ITV News and have the name of the region on the right of the ITV.

Apologies if this has already been mentioned, but there was an ITV1 Yorkshire ident going into Calendar at 6pm yesterday when normally the programme comes straight out of a trail or advert. Let's hope it wasn't a one off. Anybody know if all other regions had a local ident as well?

Yes, we in Granadaland were treated to one too!

Meridian had one also, and the announcer happened to be an ex-Meridian announcer too.
