I'm pretty sure there is a rollover limit - a figure of around £90m rings a bell, but it's presumably it's that high because Camelot think we'll never get to it.


Yes, I did mean to say increased as opposed to removed. As you mentioned in other posts, Camelot have made clever changes so they can make their claims legitimately.

All they've done is to make Lotto more like EuroMillions, and I do think it will improve sales, in the short term at least.

The end board on the promo for the Strictly results uses the wrong font every week, and seems to have a drop shadow.

You'd think they'd get it right on one of the BBC's biggest shows, but evidently the standards have slipped these days.

Yes, I notice that too every single week. It annoys me immensely!

A case of the editor not being savvy when it comes to graphics/endboard styleguides. (This can happen a lot if no one's chcecking)

You can add, Question time, and this week to the list.

If we're getting onto that subject, EastEnders frequently uses the wrong font on their trailers and promos. Can always tell from the way the middle 't' doesn't align with the 'E'.

Any promos that are made on the fly at short notice then.

Of course then you get the promos made by the regions which are another thing entirely.

Regarding the remembrance sting, I have noted of late that stings have been infrequent. There was an abundance of them after those January idents aired, but since the summer there's been hardly any. Has anyone else noticed this?

Ever since the first week of July the numbers started to dry up big time, only being used for special days. Sometimes you have to wonder why waste the time using them? In Scotland there only ever used the Rubber dingy one, once on Saturday 4th July.
