Thank god Breakfast now looks a lot more consistent

I do think the old logo was better, combined with the old clock but hey, the wipe is consistent now! And the colouring of the graphics too. No more generic BBC News combined with Breakfast. Just breakfast! Yay!


I note the trail for the Film Review hasn’t been Reithed. Using all the old typefaces. 😜

Not sure either Breakfast or the Film Review are relevant in the BBC World News thread unless they’ve gone global? 😀😉

One thing I like is no more flicking between location and local time. Both on screen at the same time.

How does Asia Business Report look with the new graphics? If I recall they use CasparCG for their editions. ABR only airs for one edition in the US so I don’t always catch it.

I don’t think this looks right...

That looks like one of my test mocks.

No, the show slug should be in the black and the text below the BBC World News DOG.

I just assumed it was a bug with the output. Did the same misalignment happen in the next episode?

2008 sting idents have been replaced visually with a simple, new design. However, the 2008 sting music lives on! Laughing

Wow these ones are hideous it looks cheap as well as the locations are getting cut off as well worst idents ever.

I’m not sure there’s only one airing on the North America feed.

It's because the programme (including story and name straps) comes from Singapore with the black logo bar and white flipper being added on top from London.

There's probably no easy way of keeping that set up with the ABR bug where it should be and moving up and down with the logo for when the story straps appear. This is most likely why the sports bulletins have gone for graphics completely separate from the main design, to overcome this problem.

There is an easy way.
Let London put the programme bugs on screen.

But then if they wanted it to work exactly how the other programmes worked, they'd have to do all the straps for the programme which I don't think would work as there isn't a spare gallery at NBH for doing such things.
