Re : the logo - the only place I can see it there, unless I'm being very dense, is on the side of a lens. Would you really expect a re-shoot to change a logo (when the cameras in use may well have still had the old logo on them anyway?) It wasn't as if it was a burned in logo that could be quickly replaced in an edit.
Well, yes I would, bearing in mind they were still using it in 2002, five years after the logo change. Live and Kicking changed the BBC logo in their titles the week it happened, and that was far less noticeable. Surely it would have been harder to change it if was a graphical logo because it would mean remaking the whole titles, instead of just replacing one shot? I know I should have had that argument in 2002.
Thanks for that. The share shows then that Breakfast would fair better in the slot than Marr.
I don't think it shows that at all, does it? Yes, Breakfast has a bigger share but that's over four hours including at 6am when the only other alternatives are ancient repeats or a blank screen. Marr is shown against Saturday Kitchen Best Bites and Sunday Brunch and other programmes that people actually want to watch. And in any case, the share and ratings say nothing about the audience profile which also needs to be taken into account for a show like this. It's not just how many watch it, it's who watches it.
