oh, come on. It's TV Forum tradition to slag things off the moment you've seen them, not a week before!

So they made the titles shorter in order to have a longer intro shot of the newsroom and studio. Sounds good to me. Wish World would do the same.

It's one of your own insiders saying this, I hope it's not true, we've had a much longer wait, to be honest anything is better then the current n6 setup.

Nah. The current World opening titles is really good. I would like the channel also to do that shot. But due to the length of the hold in the opening music, it didn't.

I think the new slowed down version of titles does not match the music as good as previous one.

Except for the headline sequence I prefer the bongs timed even though there's a lack of flexibility.

I agree. The previous one is fast and pacey so it matched. We're so used to seeing the old titles so they decided to slow down some portions a bit, to differ with the old version.

I'll wait until it's properly on- screen until I make my judgment , the clue is in the name it's the pilots and things may indeed change.

They been piloting for weeks but here we have an insider saying the music is copy and pasted, the presenters looking uncomfortable combined with robot cameras you can imagine the whole thing looking and sounding a little odd.
