Can we get Simon McCoy posted outside Broadcasting House giving hourly updates on the non-arrival of Reith?

Please don't say that is the new BBC News logo.

Wish it was - would be a far more interesting rebrand.

Does Broadcasting House have a Lindo Wing?

So is Trump’s visit a crisis? Or is it still on for sometime today?



To be fair to the BBC, this week *has* been quite busy with Trump's polluting of our atmosphere, and the D-Day commemorations. Lots of OBs taking place. So perhaps not the time to launch new graphics.

Saying that, the way the news is at the moment, there's no such thing as a quiet week!

I suspect that the new graphics will launch after they find the replacement for Theresa May

You would like to hope that it has been tested, tested and tested again so there would be no problems with it and it could launch at any time. If something happens, it just needs to be fixed, same way as it would have to be fixed if it was the old graphics package that failed.

I wonder why it was put off? Can't be because of Trump and D-Day stuff, that was known well in advance.

Do you think I'm overenthusiastic about a typeface implementation?
