What did you expect? A full two minutes of the Knight rotating to the sound of Handel's Water Music?


No not at all - but I imagined it would be featured throughout the new titles sequence rather than just in for a second or so.

The original Anglia Knight, as seen in the classic Anglia TV ident has just been featured on the Antiques Roadshow!

If only my TV capture card was working properly!

EDIT:
Catch the repeat (with signing) on BBC One at 01:10am on Tuesday morning . . .

I found the story about the sculpture interesting. I'm surprised it's so big , four feet tall and made of solid silver.

I did.

Or failing that, Stephen Lee on a turntable for 2 minutes to the music of Celine Dion.

Or is that just me?

So the rumours about Stephen are true?

Anyone seen them both in the same room at the same time?

Reading between the lines in the Anglia programme statement - www.itvregions.com/Anglia/Regional+Affairs/RegionalProgrammeStatement.htm - one gets the distinct impression that pan-regional weekend bulletins are on the cards

This isn't really a complaint, but I was watching Anglia on Monday to get a decent recording. I have recorded Anglia News East 2004 no less than three times and they always get something wrong in the intro sequence. Its always out of line and just generally tacky. It seems in the two times I've tried this re-launch there has been a mistake.

Is it always this bad?
