BBC One 2016 Christmas Presentation

A lot actually - if you've ever been on set for a promo then you'd understand. If you're criticising the concept, then that's fair, but in terms of actually filming, a lot goes into it.

Do we have a full list of the idents used/created? I was never really look most of the time since it xmas

I captured all of them (via Network and NI - No Scotland or Wales versions, I'm afraid!).

I'll put them all together and upload as one continuous compilation, when I have some time.

Please don't mis-quote me. I said almost.

If you had used the same tone in your last message as you did in this, there would not have been a problem.

I have one from Mrs brown boys

I wonder why only a few of the viewer idents had companion introductions? I was a little surprised Doctor Who only had the ident.

Added to that, the keying of the Oneness logo over the intros was a bit awful when the idents were so smooth!

All the videos are here

Has this 'four boxes' ident used in to Bake Off been shown before? It feels familiar.

Are you sure you're not thinking of 'The Voice' ?

Just having watched them all on The Ident Gallery, I really liked the viewer idents! They were all nicely set up, looked nice (although slightly odd without the BBC logo) and generally executed pretty well. The only one I wasn't that much of a fan of was the Call the Midwife one, which was a nice idea, let down by the slightly creepy few seconds at the end where some woman clutching pregnant stomachs bounce gently on those balls whilst smiling into the camera! I was worried that they'd make the CA quite redundant, but by scheduling the junction so the CA speaks over clips of the people that will later speak the ident, before a few trailers and then the ident itself, you get the personality of the CA still, which was quite nice.

I definitely wouldn't object to them doing this as the main ident package, but they'd have to film A LOT of them for it to work. For example, IMO you'd need dozens of idents of fans announcing EastEnders, as if it was the exact same person every night saying the exact same words I think it'd get very repetitive very quickly

Definitely not thinking of The Voice.

Must have been annoying having to repeat the same line four times. What a nice treat to say good bye from bake off with the cakes.

Yeah. Four boxes, Four cakes - saying goodbye to a show off to Channel Four...

Someone over did swigging on the sarcastic irony bottle just before Christmas at BBC One....
