Is there a new ident coming up? I saw a trailer for Caroline Quentin's new sitcom and at the start there was a red ring which I assumed related to the show. But then they showed a trailer for QI and they had a red rubber ring at the start as well. What does it mean I wonder?


Is it something to do with a comedy promo possibly? Similar to BBC TWO's Thursdays are Funny ? hmmmm....


Heres the sting if anybody hasn't seen it yet.

That rubber ring seems so unspectacular. I'm thinking there must be more to it than that.

Isn't that awful? Looks like something Dave would call an ident...

You're right - it does a bit.

Interesting effect on BBC One (South East) on Sky during Top of the Pops. If you press red and then select the TOTP sing along it actualy loads the oddbox quiz application but uses the TOTP video stream.
Press the colour keys to answer the 'questions'.


EDIT: This has been fixed now. It was wrong for at least 10 minutes though.

I'm not sure what's worse the rubber ring or the comedy it's promoting!!

Not one funny moment in the trailer and no quotable dialogue. Shocking. Shocked

Do you remember when BBC1 used to show trailers for their comedies and they actually looked funny? Rolling Eyes

Yes but you have to go back even further to find a comedy that actually proved to be funny.

I hope somebody managed to catch it on You Tube.

Just saw that Nick Knowles is hosting the New Year festivities on BBC1 thank God for Jules's Hootenanny on BBC2.
