Excellent!!!

Very fast paced and excellent visuals. A nice evolution of the globe theme.

A bit disappointed that there's not much noticable difference in the music, but overall while these aren't as good as the original 1999 package (while the cream is a bit outdated now, the titles and original music in '99 hasn't been bettered since) they're such a massive improvement on the current red-on-black titles.


although... these may not have final music.... press releases and all. BBC One's Bikes ident had the wrong music in one of the press releases, so the National's music may change

No, that's the final version.

Yeah, immediately while watching, I figured the music wasn't right. It would be very unusual if they spent 500,000 on revamping the visual look while leaving the music alone.

Visually, it looks great though.

Doesn't it say its the News Channel's Ident. Maybe the National News will be slightly different, or even slower paced?

BBC WORLD NEWS's ident intrigues me, I'd like to see that in motion, also the countdown and breakfillers, as these are (used to be at least) graphics intense.

Absolutely correct. There's a different theme in the full package of music for the English regions.

Do we think that is the main regional titles or just a short one?

Interesting. Didn't originally like the idea of scrapping the black and red but that seems nice. Very 1999.

Same as BBC News Channel, hence the similar sequences.
