BBC 2W handed over to N24 earlier, but 2 minutes in decided to play out part of a BBC1 trail, before cutting abruptly back in...Something is definitely up with Wales' playout this week.

On the plus side, before the handover there was a nice goodnight from Steve, which is always welcome.


And a brief moment of amusement at BBC2 showing 'German shorts' at 2am - it was the way I read it! Laughing

Deep aqua, off aqua blue, invisible, white, black, purple, no box and now the latest addition to the BBC Two box collection: orange box can be found on a special trail endboard advertising Later with Jools Holland.

Here is another rule breaking BBC Two trailer...

I quite like it...

Anyone else rather suspicious of Later launching earlier on April 1st?


And regardless, seems a questionable move from it's traditional Friday night slot.

Isn't it because this edition is going to be live not pre-recorded?

Still, it does seem rather odd having it at 2200 on a Tuesday as opposed to the usual 2335 on a Friday.

It's in the 10pm slot too on the 8th April., though not live.


Seems a very odd decision to me - though then again it looks like it's keeping it's Friday, one hour slot too.


So perhaps the first 10pm show will be live, with subsequent ones being edited repeats of the Friday show or something.

Well if it's at 10pm every Tuesday then it can only be a half hour show unless Newsnight is moving, which I doubt. I feel half an hour would be too short, so at least there appears to be some facility for a full version.

Perhaps it's going to be like what they did with Graham Norton - have the main show at 30mins during the week and then have a longer uncut repeat later on.

I think that the Later trailer works and I like that BBC2 are being flexible with their trailers.

The 1st April "Later" is live, but I didn't know it was going to be move days on a permanent basis...?

Another endboard..

I knew it was going to be that endboard before the image even loaded - saw it one on BBC2 Norn Iron the other day and wondered why no-one had posted a still until now!

I rather like that idea of a separate but relevant image for both the background and '2' respectively - would place some variety back into the all-round pres if it was adopted for general trails instead of one-offs.
