I hear there's a funfair coming to town, only open on Saturday nights though. Just follow the signs. See you there at about 6.15..? Wink

Oooh! Wow the beeb are treating us, was there really that many additions with the dancer idents in the first year?

Am I right in guessing a merry-go-round or a Ferris wheel will be involved?

Sounds good. Bring on 6:15

I had hoped that the Beeb would debut a new ident in the autumn. Why just launch them in the little watched summer months. No way I'm missing it this time as I've been checking this thread regularly for news! Razz

Is there any CGI involved?

Nice hint and it sounds like a good idea for an ident, perhaps focusing on different stalls and rides before focusing in on a ferris wheel? I would expect it to have lots of blinking lights set against a dark backdrop.

'Just follow the signs' - could that possibly mean we're having some sort of stings directing us to it?

Dare we hope? I thought these idents would be perfect for stings. In fact the last time we had stings outside of Christmas was during the balloon era.

As a fan of long exposure photography - this really could be my favourite ident of all time - and that is without even having seen it!

There were Dancers stings made, but they were very rarely used from a few weeks into the package.

Has anyone seen the trailer for Strictly Dancing on Ice Factor or whatever it is now on BBC 2 tonight?

It had a glitterball flashout into the sky like the old Spidey/Batman spotlight, maybe it could be worked into an ident.


I am suprised that the didnt resurect a dancer ident specially for strictley.


You actually expected them to? Rolling Eyes
Well I thought that the circle concept would really suit a Busby Berkeley type ident or an Esther Williams inspired synchronised swimming ident with the camera looking down on the action.
