C4 finally ditched their dodgy cross promotion menu for a slightly less dodgy one.


Headed with next, channel logos along with the programmes listed on the left with images in the right hand third of the screen, with each programme highlighted in the way the regular menu does - and this time at least ending with the announcer saying that's what's on now on "All 4's".

I saw that just before Grand Designs, look quite good IMHO, looks better than BBC's & ITV's

I noticed it too the other night after Hollyoaks. I was going to post a cap but I was a bit quick and had deleted the programme.

I think it looks better than the cross-promotion of the other main broadcasters because it shows the individuality of the channels alot better.

I missed the "all the 4s" comment, but has a nice ring to it. They should use it more!

One week on it's got another outing - anyone else spotted it elsewhere over the last few days?

I saw it the other night. Much better than what they had before. The anno said 'this is what's on next on the family of 4s' which I thought sounded good.

Worth noting that unlike the BBC/ITV equivalents, C4 seem to put their channel at the bottom of the list, advertising what's on elsewhere first - seemingly E4, More4 and Film4 before ending with what's on C4.

I think it would look good if the logos were all white on a dark background, I can't help feeling that it looks a bit messy having all these different colours all over the place.

I don't think it's been used since probably the first week of the Jan 2005 relaunch - but they used to use the standard C4 menu and spin it to reveal the E4 menu - which was still white but with purple text.


It's definately an improvement now on what we did have - but still doesn't seem quite right!
