I'm presuming the remix/revamped titles music will still include the old ITN emblem (you know... duhhhh duhduh duhhhhh).

I very much doubt the theme will change dramatically, and I'm sure Big Ben and the bongs will remain as long as ITN makes ITV News. Be interesting to see if they did go their seperate ways.


I'm assuming that as with most revamps, this thread will close tomorrow and a new one open.

I'll PM the mods in a minute but how did we cover the regional news last time - was it in the seperate threads or did we get a generic regional thread to cover the changes?

I dunno about last time but I'll be recording the Morning News, the 10.55 News Summary and Meridian News, the 12.00 Preview and the Lunchtime News.

I would expect everything will be covered in the main thread on the main forum, even if it is news on this occasion. There will definally be overlap.

I suggest having a thread called 'ITV News relaunch' here in the newsroom to cover the immediate few days of the national and regional news. The existing regional and national threads would remain for non-relaunch items

I doubt there'll be much to discuss in an "ITV News relaunch" thread, after all, it sounds like there'll only be a slight tweaking...

Why should this thread close because there is a revamp? Its not a thread specially for the revamp, its a general discussion of the ITV News. Cant it be discussed here and a separate thread in the main forum used for the new idents/trailers on ITV1/2/3 etc.

Agreed. I'm sure a new thread will be opened if 'radical' changes are made.

Slight tweaking? It's a whole new graphics package

Why can't you just let things be for once? Leave it for the mods to sort out.

Your 'thread fascism' is very tedious.

I take it there were no changes during the ITV Morning News?

I've only seen the opening and it was just the titles on the newswall + sting music as before.
