Well I'm quite impressed, maybe its just my computer and internet, but its working lovely, and looks much better than before, even though many things remind me of the BBC's iPlayer.
While thats true, the quality IMO looks terrible now, like the old bitrate of YT and nothing like iPlayer streaming.
I think the website's layout is horrific, I hope they change it, it's not very special or 'web 2.0' which it should aim for. Saying that, the catch up is an improvement, shame the video quality isn't. I would rather them revamp the whole thing and do a proper job of it this time.
jesus christ, what the hell have they done?
for one, i can't really comment on the catchup as i've never really been inclined to use it (which raises the question of why don't they advertise it as much as iplayer and 4od?). but the design looks all over the place - yet so, so, so, so bland.
as already said, they really do need to just overhaul the whole thing. change the structure, and go back to the drawing board. that's never going to happen. and the video player on every page just makes it sluggish.

Well, ITV have done the impossible: they've replaced something bland and messy with something equally bland and messy.
Is it just me or does the animated information thing on the homepage just not work properly at all. It keeps on jumping from one to the other in no order. Then I'll click on one of the boxes, and it will decide to flash onto another box instead! My poor eyes!

I thought that was just me! It's bloody awful, it just jumps back and forward between them before you've even had a chance to read what it says!

It did that with me, but seems to work when you refresh the page.
what's the point, aren't the rights going back to the BBC in 2009? and why has it got the old header?
Its been like it since before the start of this season, so they probably weren't aware that the rights would be going elsewhere. They redesigned it to incorporate the live video streaming etc.
Looks good.
