Is it me or are the TOTH titles much better rendered now...the 24 graphic flows in much smoother than it did before.


Yes you're right. The titles were tweaked last February along with on-screen graphics. Something to do with a higher frame speed. You might remember they also introduced the ridiculously high-speed globe at the same time but soon ditched it.

I was just channel surfing to find a smiling Stephen Cole on news 24 saying "Coming up the best technology show that it Click Online".

And then he said "your watching 24"

i put on daddy's best for him. I don't think he noticed though. I wonder if this chap did though. No doubt he would have gotten 100% certainty that Stephen Cole was blinking at him, because of course everybody in the country works for MI5 don't they.

I'm glad he dosen't present BBC World, because that's often what he used to do, I mean saying Headlines - World, was just plain lazy, it must drive directors up the wall when he does this.

Yeah. Shes been surprising good with Phil..

Yesterdays "Hello....(Look around, Look at ME ) I'm Steven Cole" was a true classic. There again his ego was undoutedly inflated after watching half an hour of his Click on That. It really does amaze me that he, of all people should be allowed on, especially when theres some real talent out there cough: Martine Croxwell: cough. Yet again another truly cringeworth episode from Mr Cole.

Yes, Martine and Phil working quite well together. Best female presenter with Phil since Anna left.
