Those titles still seem weak - something not quite right with the look of the cgi and rendering

The full versions were more impressive.

I like it. Reminiscent of ITV's News at Ten opening circa 2008.

Well the then-editor of ITV News did move to NBC...

(I think this theory’s been mentioned here before IIRC)

I have a vague memory of seeing it on an afternoon when I off school for some reason, and they had had to move studio (to Maidstone?) because Gillingham (or wherever) was snowbound

That MAY have been TVS other TV offering of TV Weekly if midweek afternoon?

That was with Anne Diamond though, wasn’t it?

New BBC One ident

Well hopefully we’re in for a change. The balloons only lasted five years, and Rhythm and Movement only four. We’ll just have to wait and see what happens.

Only elements of the Wales Today set that are on there are two of the three 103" plasmas.

What lot are they?


Lots 2156 and 2157.

Ooh, it’s only £10! Might go for it - that would look brilliant on my living room wall.

It’s still used on the ticker occasionally.

The Sound of TV with Neil Brand

I too enjoyed his series on musicals. Just stumbled across the second episode looking for something to watch, and wound up enjoying it so much that I watched the whole series.

Loose Men

They've done this before haven't they?

They’ve had one or two men on the panel with women but never an all-male panel.

I’m A Celebrity .... 2020

I like how they've done the entire 10 celebrity introduction piece without an advert break in between!

And they’ve been coming thick and fast since.

Morning Live

I’ve watched the show since Monday and have to say, I’m enjoying it very much.
Yes, it has echoes of the early “This Morning” set wise and I would say content wise (before TM went tabloid).
Both presenters and experts have a great rapport and it’s a very enjoyable and informative 45 minutes.
I really hope after the eight week run, the Beeb make this a permanent feature and extend it to at least an hour thirty each day.

I wouldn't be surprised if it they keep it at 45 minutes but they could extend to 60 minutes to 75 minutes. The latter length would mean they wouldn't have to commission the half hour factual programmes like Close Call for the 1145 slot.

The programmes in the 11:45 slot (like Close Calls and Caught Red Handed) have repeat rights sold to UKTV and Discovery. Those shows might not be dropped as I suspect they might actually be breaking even, or even making a profit on them.

Does anyone know what font they use for the graphics?

Could someone get a screen grab for me please?

Looks like it's Arial Bold.


Oops. I meant the graphics on the bottom of the screen.

I think it’s Comfortaa. You can find it on Google Fonts.

Unflappable Reporters/Anchors/Presenters

I particularly like this example from ABC7 in Chicago, when a car crashed through the window of their streetside studio. The anchor is visibly shocked initially, but it’s impressive not only how quickly he recovers from it, but also how he’s able to more or less continue as normal.
parrferris and Alfie Mulcahy gave kudos

All change at the top of ITN

Jonwo posted:
I can't see ITN losing the contracts for ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 anytime soon.

I reckon Sky might come in with a killer offer next time C5’s contract comes up for renewal. Something they can’t refuse.
