I think it is safe to say the Oneness will be staying for 2020. There is not a hint of a change in the air at the BBC, but maybe this is what they want, and surprise us after the fireworks and Craig David ..... I won't hold out much hope though.

We didn't have much warning of the BBC Two curve idents either did we?

A day or two, and with Oneness it was a matter of hours.

Hopefully though the next new look for BBC1 will be something they don't want to sneak out quietly at 1am in the morning.

Maybe they'll bring Sea Swimmers or Exercise Class back into regular rotation - you know, just for us dedicated Oneness fans.

I've not seen any hints from insiders, so I expect Oneness will return from after midnight.

That said I'd welcome a surprise change (and I imagine others here would too). Hopefully when it eventually changes the powers that be will take note of the positive reaction to BBC 2's new idents.

I'd imagine, since this is the new decade, BBC1 would surely want to have a new package that better represents the nation.

But I'm not really holding hopes for this year to be the one where they surprise us. At most, I'm expecting a logo refresh (since the current one has been in use since 2006! Nearly more than a decade in itself) and/or a "Reith-ed" endboard.

God knows, the BBC could surprise us all, the amount of work put into #XMASLIFE seems to show hope that a full package throughout the year could work if executed properly. Only time will tell and the Onemess could go on.

Given that the BBC is facing another existential crisis courtesy of the reinvigorated Tories, I doubt refreshing the appearance of BBC One is high on anyone's agenda there.

Welcome back, One-ness. You haven't been missed.

Expecting #OneBoris

Don't know if any of you noticed, but there was a (very) brief breakdown during Gangsta Granny. (Very brief because it only lasted about 10 seconds)

This is TV Forum, we see everything. Wink

And it was a festive breakdown slide too!

Aside from the fact it didn't seem to be a "fault" as such, I suspect it was cut to air accidentally.

Celebrity Mastermind has just started. I honestly have never heard of, or (knowingly) seen before any of the contestants !

Although I did just get all of the 1970s/80s LE questions correct !

I reckon they purposely messed up so we TV Forumers could see the breakdown slide.

CA Kate is here to see us into 2020.

I wonder if Claire McCollum (who seems to be a regional presenter in NI) was a late edition to line up due to someone pulling out, didn’t seem to know a lot about her subject, including basic things and you wouldn’t think they’d go a regional personality.

I’m not sure it’s been covered on here but since moving to to Belfast and being taken over by the indie the set design of Mastermind is now pretty effective without the gimmicks that later Salford series introduced.

Edit: Turns out she does Songs of Praise.

I'd rather have Rhythm and Movement at this point.
