Would have been even nicer if we had got Snowball but hey ho.

Had it not been for the Christmas lights Snowball would have been perfect.

I do remember during the era of the robotic '2' that they brought out the ice cube 2 Christmas ident for about this time of the year, when we were getting wintry weather. So people weren't far off in thinking that Snowball could be brought out again.

And let's not forget the 'Christmas tree in the living room' shot that appears halfway through Laughing

The BBC2 Snowman ident was perfect for days like this.

Maybe just coincidence, but BBC Three have been using the Ski Resort sting a lot this evening.

No, it was the Snow ident that got brought out during wintry weather. Ice (with the 2 embedded in a block of ice) was brought out when the weather was very hot.

Is this another new announcer on BBC ONE Network tonight?

She sounds a lot better than the other recent female recruit!

I don't think I've heard her before, she has a very clear voice and good delivery. She's a keeper.

I can't say I've heard her before but remember that there were two new female announcers - one of whom is everyone's favourite addition that sounds like she is suited for Five etc.

Putting this here as it's pres related although it could well have been sport's cock-up - BBC One, just after the regional news, the announcer voiced over a slide about some sport on the iPlayer. Which gave the address BBC.CO.UK/iPLAYER

Is checking the URLs on captions (clue - they're case sensitive) too much to ask?

While people are rewinding their PVRs to see if Steve in Pudsey is speaking the truth (clue - he is) can anyone else hear talking after the ident but before The One Show music kicks in?
