Sorry to go back a few posts:
What do you think? This is the last issue in this Christmas post
! Making this one of the last active remnents of Christmas . It hasn't died it's death yet though. I was really looking forward to logging on to seeing some feedback to this idea . If this thread gives my rebrand a go-ahead, I might do some mocks for it in a new thread. Then this thread will die 
!
Having not worked on the High Street, let alone at Christmas, I can only em/sympthise (can't remember respective suffix) with how you must feel.

I have an idea to a relaunch.
I think that they should build up to this rebrand.
It will be really special because it will return the globe, and the '1'.
A caption showing '1997'. It will start off with a ten second trailer, of the '1' with arms, and the '2' with arms, dancing together, at the top of a cliff, or near a danger. then they do the sequence that makes the screen red in two halfs. The text just says "Coming soon".
For the next following teasers, the red screen just displays the digit '1'.
Next teaser, you see the '1' slipping, and falling down the cliff - or into the danger, and the '2' crying? It won't be grusome, more cartooney, for a family audience.
During the same period you see a cartoon 'BBC' marketing deparment shurgging, and setting up a 'Dancers Wanted Sign', and enflating a globe balloon.
Two weeks later you see the '1' twitching at the bottom of the cliff.
Another two weeks later, you see the '1' surfing on a 'clock-surfboard' on the Pacific ocean on a 'BBC1.' globe, that has bounced over the cliff, behind some rock / upbeat music.
The '2' looks extactic.
The red caption says:
"The new 'BBC1.' Launching Next Sunday - on 'BBC1.'.
The 'new' rotates into 'old' in the same way that 'BBC Three' rotates into 'Seriously Funny New Comedy', and back on 'BBC3.'.
After the red screen, the '2', and the '1' hug.

What font is the '1'? I heard in another post that the '2' is a bold version of 'Gills Sans', but is this a derivative font, or just 'Bold' on the formatting toolbar?
