Talking multipul uses, I assume this means a new look Newyddion?


I wouldn't be surprised if Newyddion gets the EXACT same title sequence/theme music as the BBC1 network news, but with an "N" forming up in place of the 1/6/10 (and with "Newyddion BBC" in place "BBC News", obviously).


It's |B|B|C| Newyddion, not Newyddion |B|B|C| isn't it?

but strangely also...

...so make your own mind up there!

According to BBC Cymru's website it's BBC Newyddion. The welsh language is strange though!

Well now rather predictably Lord Owen didn't mention the changes, being far too offish and cynical to get involved of course.

I do hope it's Sara on Monday, I'm certain she can allow herself to take an interest -- and then Derek can come and break something.

Garry Owen did mention a new look though [what happened to the Garry van?]

I believe it has been retired and is residing in a caravan park in the sky

Any chance it could be joined, SOON, by the Points West Politics Van?

This one is excellent.


Very nice, I think Welsh viewers would be pleased to see this on screen, nice mock indeed. Smile

Just an idea Equidem ... try it with a white background inplace of the black., and some swirling "BBC NEWS" ticker-tapes (like on network). See how that looks!

It would look like the Japanese national flag, Denton. Or, in other words - completely stupid and pointless!

I've been told that above mock is very close in design to what is going to be used on-screen, but I would never have used a white background. Blue, orange or dark red perhaps, but certainly not white!

Apparently the new music is crap. I'm not holding my breath at all about this revamp. It sounds to be a very half-hearted and feeble attempt at bringing Wales Today up to date with the rest of the national output.

Finally, why would WT have 'BBC NEWS' ticker-tape? Surely it would make far more sense to have Welsh placenames scrolling past?

I shall hold back any further judgement until next week, though.

I have a feeling you're not going to be too happy on Monday... Wink

I have that feeling too.

So you've been told that the above mock is very close to what is going to be used on screen??? Not as close as it could be though.
