For some reason, on both my set top box and tuner (from Sutton Coldfield) I am getting weird robot voices relaying things about BBC buildings and the time. Anyone else on Sutton Coldfield getting this?

EDIT: Back to normal now (00:11)


Was it the BBC Emergency Information?

Well, I don't think it was 159. It was reading various places out (White City, North West and Birmingham) and I heard the word downlink used once though.

Not sure if it has been mentioned, but there will be a special ident for the Live EastEnders episode.

Albert Circle - seems appropriate, they've been going round in circles for years and their big 25th birthday stories are all recycled.

Doesn't stand out exactly like an ident should, but the concept of Albert Circle is meant to be ironic and I think it works to an extent.

On an unrelated note, the idents are getting a long play tonight, maybe time to re-introduce the long versions!

I agree the music nice. Shame they did not work harder on the ident as it could have be fantastic. 2.5/5 the music bumps it up.

As opposed to the other Soaps of course which are all fresh and original. Rolling Eyes
