Yet another gem.

Personally I was hoping for a lunar new year extravaganza, but sky will be sky.

I'd like them to take it back to 2005, not in terms of graphics, but in terms of relaunching.
They could use the new graphics to package everything together, regroup the presenters, rename some shows, sort out the schdule and use more of the studio.

I always find that people pay more attention if a new look is given as it feels different to its former self (not in a good way recently for sky).

Great news. They've obviously known how rubbish the current are, if they're changing them after just a year.
Hopefully they've seen sense and are going for a 2005-2007 style of graphics, remember the site is getting a new look soon aswell as a new TOTH, and there was that new music... whether it will be broadcast or not. So when these new graphics come, they might be nice!

I hope they don't continue with this tacky Impact style font and the black. I hate to say it, as I got bored of the blue in the last graphics - but they do need to revert to it. There is no black anywhere in the studio!
I would have thought the yellow will remain for breaking news, who knows, it might even be extended to the straps and newswall and not just the ticker Surprised

I thought as much, which is why I added the sentence you didn't bother quoting.

I would have thought so. It sounds like a complete graphics relaunch, which is fantastic. I don't think they can get any worse than the current graphics! Hopefully they go back to the old parallel logo, instead of the box one.
