Five is a brand

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZBuIoCpwiI

This one, to me, is the greatest ident C5 ever had. I also had a lot of time for the five era, with the exception of the changes to news.

Wasn't that originally a CSI promo used in the states with the five logo pasted on top? Very effective though.


oh really? It's very well adapted into the ident then.

oh god were you the person who replied to every single bloody tweet? I think I blocked the account in the end as I was sick and tired of seeing the spam.

Tyne Tees & Border/Look North (NE & Cumbria)

What an amazing tribute for Pam that was. Tony Blair, Ant and Dec, and then Sting popping up were hilarious.

So can I just check something, do Border and Tyne Tees now have fully separate live half hour shows again? Just both broadcast from Gateshead? So would this only go out in Tyne Tees or do they share anchors?

I wish Twitter would prevent verified users from changing their handle or telling them that, if they change their handle, they have to create a new account in order to prevent scam accounts acquiring the old one. Sort of like what Ben Boulos did by creating a dead account on BenMBland so no one could impersonate.


it used to warn you that if change your username your verified badge will disappear and that you should do renames via twitter support. since their latest UI update, it no longer does.

and having this place in my life probably helped me get the job at the place I always dreamed of some 14 years later (no, not bid-up.tv) so thanks everyone for that. terrifying to think what that 2003 cohort is responsible for now innit.


I spent 13 years on here decrying the demise of regional branding, and then the moment i actually got a job in marketing, immediately set about destroying all local branding and brought everyone under one logo...

One more time...

Thanks for sharing lobster.

As soon as I opened that document, I remembered it like it was yesterday.

I think I made a point in another thread that my memories of many forum members were formed in 2002 and 2003. How young so many of us look in that document.

It is hard to believe that 18/19 years has past but I still think of cdd, Isonstine, pete et al as being teenagers. But of course they're in the mid 30s now. I'll be 48 this year.


I'm on a double lockdown birthday (which don't count) so still early 30s thank you.
