OK until you downsize it to how it appears on the screen, then I agree it looks awful!

Doesn't look that bad at all.

hmmm.. Not all of the itv news have had the itv Local link on their dog's like you've said; London, Tyne Tees & Calendar haven't got them yet and they have the itv Local service. Maybe they will in a few days? Confused

That's alright, it's not intrusive and fits in well with the current DOG, hopefully it might save the presenters flogging ITV Local every five minutes or so.

It looks fine to me, at least they haven't decided to put it above or on the side of the normal DOG. I haven't seen that DOG on Anglia yet either, which also doesn't yet have their ITV Local service up and running.

Calendar haven't launched their ITV Local site yet to the viewers, so that'll probably why there is no DOG

I wonder why they have the site up and running and they don't mention it to the viewers throughout the show?! Quite odd! Laughing

Not much on it when I looked a couple of days ago, just recent bulletins-- none of the other features then. They mentioned on Calendar South it will be officially launched today, so I would imagine it is has been updated since.

Never gonna happen, especially on Thames Valley Tonight.

I think the new dog looks pretty good, it's tidy, and well presented.

Calendar has started using the new dog today as they are officially launching the itv local site.

and it was launched on tonight's programme. Jon Mitchell is excited as it means his forecasts can now apparantly last longer than the 1m15s he gets on ITV1
