Noticed they mentioned Ruth on HTV News tonight and showed some pics too - Oh dear, Lucy is getting broody, wonder who would replace her if she went on leave? Juliet probabaly, although isnt it time Justina Simpson had a go on the 6 bulletin, she would be good im sure, she is streets ahead of most of the other newer newsreaders!

Whataday I *think* it was the same music they just had on the ITV1 Wales ident in the ITV Evening News.

Fred, you are a little teasing tart.

Anyway -- Spotted! First Christmas tree on Welsh tv -- in the Wedi 7 studios in Llanelli. Not that I watch that crap, you understand.

The BBC are usually nice and restrained in when they unleash their Christmas tree, only a few days before the day -- which is bearable. I remember HTV making their graphics Christmassy but can't remember whether there was a tree in the news studio.

Derek started his Christmas pictures this evening, with some nice penguin graphics. Penguins are always a good thing. No, we're not on chocolate again Fred, can't you think of anything else?

The music used was the 'guitary' music from the current set of idents! It was the same music as used in the Sue Johnson ident.

Also it looked like it was the beach at Broadhaven - and how nice it looked too!

I *wonder* which place in Wales will feature tomorrow?

What was the reason behind Whatday wanting us to HEAR his voice?

BBC can you remind us of the story behind it?

And as to the <ponder> theft over in t'other thread -- it was merely a cunning scheme to tempt you out of your den.

Sian Lloyd was voted first out of the celebrity jungle cos no-one liked her. She's also still with that bizarre man off of the Liberal Democrats. But Sian rounded off the year with her own ITV1 ident:

Well I'm not young Jez but good god, yes -- tis quite worrying. Not so much of what he was up to, but the pants, the pants! It's wrongness.

It's like that thing on ebay where people deliberately go in for photographing shiny/reflective things for sale whilst naked.

What has happened to young Jez ? - he doesn't seem to frequent these parts anymore. Maybe he's gone and joined the labour party?
<extremely large ponder>

It's a shame because there might be another opportunity for the anoraks to capture the new regional idents tonight! I reckon there will be TWO chances to view the new orgasmic delights before a double helping of Great Escapes tonight!

Why do you say that? I didn't think Great Escapes was a regional programme.
