Top of the Pops

Here are some mocks I did for TOTP, keeping the same logo (albeit a bit more spangly, and losing the exclamation marks).

Who knows, there could even be a channel - TOTP TV, a commercial channel run by the BBC and flextech (like the old Play UK, but this would be primarily music-orientated).

The only problem is the embossed logo - it looks dreadful.

Other than that - they're purely excellent! Very modern!

Like them all apart from the totp saturday one, the saturday is too squashed up

I like the mocks, they are excellent, a new look with an old brand, but I dont like the saturday one, I like the way that the saturday show style saturday word comes over the top of the totp logo currently.

I actually prefer how the saturday wording looks on the totp saturday than the actual saturday show logo. They should change the logo to make it look like this when tss returns!

Do not like. At all.

Are you Mr. Cliché or something?

Please, don't just be good with Photoshop, show some *design* flare - If there is any amongst this pseudoproductive culture.

Well sorry if it looks slightly like the 60 seconds graphics... It did cross my mind after I made them but I didn't think anyone would take them too seriously (they're only mocks!). But I didn't set out to copy 60 seconds - I used the design that I did because I wanted it to look like lots of CD cases from the side (as if they were in a rack).

If you want something completely different to anything that's been done before, take a look here.

Love the treatment you've applied. Very classy indeed. You've made the best of an awful logo which I think was one of the worst mistakes the BBC ever made. A total overhaul is long overdue for TOTP - they've had branding in the past that was far better but it never survived anywhere near as long as the current lot (5 years and counting).

I wonder why Liquid News is given revamps with such frequency and cutting-edge design excellence, but a flagship prog like TOTP is left to stagnate. It's a mystery to me.

I'm amazed at the criticism by "henny", btw. Unjust to say the least.

Actually TOTP is on it's second set of graphics with the current logo. So they haven't lasted 5 years, it's only the logo that has - and I believe the famous 1970's logo also lasted more than five years, through more than one set of graphics.

It's far more than just the logo that's lasted 5 years - it's pretty much the entire branding - the fonts, the colour palette, the astons, etc. Yes I know there were tweaks like the 3D effect on the graphics, but they were fairly minor and certainly nothing that comes close to a rebrand.
