Did Yorkshire and Yorks & Lincs share as well, as per usual for politics shows?
I believe they did, and was also the one broadcast on BBC One HD.

Ooh a mixed bag presentation-wise - would upload caps but the Uploader is down! London used their own graphics, but most of the other regions used the special BBC News theme that I believe was first used on a Midlands Today special, and then the normal titles with different images.
Overall a pretty uniform effort though, with the only real differences that some regions used pictures in the titles whilst others used video, some regions didn't have the placename lines in the titles, and there were some differing combinations of 'More Power? A Region name SPECIAL' on the title endslate (if we're being picky I think the endslate text of the Spotlight version wiped on, whilst all the others used a special animation). Look North continued to use the wrong font for their opening titles, and the new South East Today music, unlike everyone else. In other exciting font news, the South Today version used Gill Sans on all their BBC News-style straps (along with an odd off-white strap to namecheck their presenters at the beginning where the text position was completely off).
Oh, and Look East used the box in the ECP to show their post programme interviews, and owing to them showing them this way had to reduce the credit speed down to an absolute crawl as the interviews went on for about a minute and a half.

Apart from that one announcer they have who has the most irritating voice ever. I mute the TV when I hear him. It's unbearable!
I may be biased but I think BBC Northern Ireland really set the bar for continuity.

BBC South East's election programme is also on the NC and BBC Radio Kent.

Interestingly BBC South East didn't bother with their own programme (they shared with BBC South). But they seem to have another opt-out on Monday evening, ahead of a local by-election.

BBC South East are timeshifting HIGNFY, Citizen Khan and Graham Norton, so there might be some local continuity.
