BBC Scotland - the launch

We have a countdown ....

Of course


The main reason for that is, because HD channel doesn't start until after 18.58. this was an oversight to start with,

Classy launch so far with CHVRCHΞS opening up...

DOG on the top right (for a change). I guess that fits in with Alba.

The idents look promising but then straight into a different BBC Scotland logo on the programme which just looks awkward.

So is the department keeping its Scotland map, as seen in the opening there, although the 'Scotland word mark is now Reith.

A nice Launch.

That's the generic BBC Scotland logo, presumably indicating the producers rather than the network.

That was a very slick and classy opening. Nicely done

It's been a long while since I've seen a channel launch that made an impact on screen like that, normally these days they're just an ident into the first programme

The opening was very well put together

Although there's now many upset people on Freeview channel 204
