Hopefully in mixed case though and not upper case.

If that's the case it's going to get a little bit annoying after a while!

Just the logo, or the clock too?

Not necessarily. Depends where other on screen elements are located.

Think this would look quite good...

I could imagine that would be slightly jarring if the clock moved alongside it.

From some of what has been seen so far, it makes me think of the old DW News graphics:

That looks very fresh indeed.

I'd love to see the News channel do something like that pres-wise when they use A.

And now on TV Forum, another in our series #SneakyReith... tonight, we have a contribution from the BBC News as Ten.

That is taken from the BBC News digi video templates, which have had Reith for a number of months now.

I'm guessing the pack must have been edited on location in Final Cut Pro or Adobe Premiere Pro - so wouldn't have needed anyone at NBH to add graphics in.

I hope the new graphics are more like the Nine or at least that style used on the flagship bulletins and Newsnight.
