I dare say, the post above yours was perhaps being a tad sarcastic? Wink

Don't be silly, he didn't use any sarcasm tags.

Ah yes, what an excellent point - goodness knows how I managed to overlook that one!!

Really should have it written someplace, remember to use green text when being sarcastic as some don't get nuance.

The scater are real, the rink real, the penwins are computer genrated.

p.s. sorry 4 spelling Crying or Very sad


And the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park are real and the actors are fake, and the aliens in Men In Black are real and television is a box full of midgets that wake up when you turn it on and perform for you. And you really shouldn't be taking what I'm saying seriously.

Wow. You truly are an idiot, huh.

p.s. don't be sorry: I'm sorry you ever posted in the first place.

Do you think Tom9 was being sarcastic and I missed it?

He'd need some form of intellect for that to be the case.

I just watched this ident for the first time on TV and it actually looks quite good. I didn't like it when I saw it on Youtube, but it's grown rather quick on me.

I noticed that they've changed it slightly, as the vending machine has been cut out.

I'm confused Confused . Surely the skaters and the rink were real. You can never make a tree that realistic and the angle of the tree perfect. The lighting was reminicent (sp?) of an indoor rink so that was real. As for the penguins, it would be impossible to map out where the penguins skated, let alone train them to do it in the first place, so they cannot be real.

Right here comes the list...

REAL:
Rink
Lights
Skaters
Tree

FAKE:
Penguins

So they must have covered up the tree with a graphic as I have said and digitally altered the picture so that the skaters seem to be doing a full circle.

I agree, seeing it on You Tube doesn't do it justice, it looks much better when seen on television. Also the one I saw leading into Neighbours was the full version. It was exactly the same as the Christmas version minus the Christnas tree and baubles.

Oh for Harvey's sake humour is wasted on you lot.

Right.

It's a real rink in some deprived area on the east of Britain. The skaters are all real. They're there doing what they're doing. The penguins are quite obviously CGI. All attempts to teach penguins formation skating were abandoned in 1962 after what later became known as "The Big Whoopsey".

The decorations were painted on after the penguins, and the big bauble tree was put in at the same time.
