They will almost definitely use the same colours, and possibly a tower as well.

so what will they change then?

As I have said you are all getting far to excited and will no doubt be disappointed if you're expecting major changes

Well I'd call changing graphics a major change. By what NickyS has also said, I wouldn't count on a new batch of music.
Still, I do hope there is!

They're barely changing the graphics, they're changing the system that they're produced from.

Very good point!

It's inconceivable that they would adopt the national colour scheme of grey and black.

It's far too dull for continuous coverage and the larger graphics employed.

To be honest if they just reduced the size of the overall graphics by 25% this would be a significant improvement.

All I can expect is a few colour changes, perhaps some nicer graphics (maybe transparent or glossy?) and maybe a remix of the countdown music, which in itself would be no bad thing! Just as long as the drums and bleeps are retained, which will I think be highly likely.

You're expecting too much. There won't be a countdown remix, I'm 99% sure of that. I don't think the graphics will be very different to how they are now.

I was under the understanding that the Graphics System was changing along with the graphics. The graphics must be changing slightly, because of the sightings of the red ticker on the bottom of the screen.
