Urgent Enquiry :- Are the rainbow trail endboards selected at random or as per colour appropriateness with programme/final endboard shot?
I've noticed an increasing tendency to opt for the particularly foul mustard yellow variation recently, shunning the semi-sensible blue, greeny-blue and teal (which seems to be used as reservedly as possible).
Any thought going into these or none at all at this point? Perhaps they work on some kind of rota system, which we should definitely get round to documenting.

Seeing as no one's made a deal of this, I'm going to guess it actually isn't new and I'm just very behind(!)
But this menu card for BBC Two was used just before 7pm tonight on BBC One...
The logo looks blue for a start, but the design is totally new to me.

Its new since the start of the Olympics at least, but has been mentioned I think in the BBC Olympics thread

At the time of the 'Yellow' idents, did anyone find some of them were inappropriately used for serious programmes? e.g. Fish Ident for a programme about cot death.

So BBC2 is "Terrestrial Channel of the Year". Not sure what I feel about that - although BBC2 has had it's stand out moments over the last 12 months it's problems have been much discussed here. Terrestrial Primetime Channel of the Year maybe - before 8pm or so it's identity is getting weaker and weaker with every decision made by the BBC, but I guess they've had a very good year for original drama and there seems to have been more original drama series on BBC2 in the last year than I can recall in the few years that preceeded that.

Do you know which year that example is from? Forgive me, I don't know off the top of my head when exactly they introduced the 'Sombre' version of Bounce, but from my perspective, after the introduction of that symbol, they rightly did tend to use it for the most serious of subjects.
In terms of a 'serious symbol hierarchy' (for want of a better phrase), I think the second best option was Invisible Walls, but again there is the fact that it was introduced later on, and so like Bounce Sombre would not have been available in those early years of the era...
