Just seen a trail for a network programme which is being shown on Tuesday called David Beckham: New Beginnings. The trail is voiced by David Beckham himself and strangely ends with him saying 'exclusively on UTV'! Now surely they wouldn't have got him to record two separate versions, so has this been cleverly dubbed by someone at UTV? Or am I just hearing things?


There is one for STV as well: "exclusively on STV." (obv) Smile

If anyone's interested there are more themed idents to come for UTV Rewind - including some which should delight people on this forum! (think about how they might do special idents for that programme...)


Very Happy Very Happy

Ooh I can't wait for this!! Does this mean we'll be getting a glimpse at some idents from days gone by? When will these be starting? Presumably some time after Thursday?


They will start over the weekend. There are aparently four "classic" idents, dating from the 50s through to the 80s.

I haven't seen them though so don't shoot me if they've changed their mind since they told us about their plans!

What year is this from?

Managed to catch the end of the 'telly on a stick' one earlier but didn't get a chance to capture it. Will try and get some clean versions during the week.

Looks like you need VLC Player, denton. Wink

Stevie B's using MPEG4 which keeps the quality up and the file size down.

It's a bit ironic having someone say " exclusively on..." but with three different endings! Laughing Whether Mr Beckham would notice the irony, or question why he was being directed to say different things, is debatable... Wink

That UTV classic ident is the one from 1993.
The first with the UTV logo
I saw another one with the ident from 1988 to 1993
