Yep. I think ITV1 will look very close to that (Except for the UTV black background and middle line will be replaced by the blue squares background like the current news ident).
I am pleased with BBC Two this year, but the ident does not really look for just the xmas period. I could see that being used any time of the year, where as the 2001 ident look like it can only be used at xmas.
As for BBC ONE, well why bother talking about it. May as well have a frozen caption before each program! I am already sick of seeing the ident and whats worse, I hate the way the regions play it! It looks a mess!
Yeah Neil, Steve has already said that they are going to use the snowflake theme from christmas eve to new years eve.
With them ending them on new years eve, perhaps, like Carlton did, they are planning or have a new years ident with fireworks and such like. At least itv1 have something new and different this year!
How disappointing that BBC One are using IDENTICAL images from last year instead of even changing them slightly. The snowflake thingamejig with BBC ONE in the middle spinning around would have been a cheap and effective alternative and even if it was alternated with the toddlers from hell would have something more interesting to look at. The only thing I am curious about is how Steve knows that ITV will be doing a Christmas ident when the ITV duty office says that there won't be.
