Why is it red, it was red with the last one, and red with this ident.

My friend once told me this was because the government colours of Labour are red, so that is why the style of BBC One is red.

Can anyone confirm this?


Did you know that no dictionary has the word "gullible" in it?

Shame they didn't put it in a circle really.


It makes sense to keep on the original box as it helps keep it in line with the BBC Two - Four logos.

TBH though, I don't really see the point, as the boxed logo won't be seen on screen at all.

In keeping with the PC theme of the dancers, has anyone noticed that the man in Windows, who appears with a grin, is he blind? I just noticed him holding his cane and his expression suggests he's maybe enjoying feeling the sun hit his face when reflected from other windows.

Just a little observation I haven't seen picked up anywhere yet and if correct, is very nicely done!

Would it be a problem if he was blind? Its not as if they are saying "oi look at me, i'm blind and on TV!"

I think you're right now you come to mention it. I've never noticed that before.

So I finally show the BBC one Scotland.

I don’t like!

The Scotland words could of Easily been made bigger and longer to fit under the whole of the word ONE:

I saw the regional version of Kites before the Six O' Clock News and noticed, aside from the Yorks and Lincs remaining, that the cut out of some of the introductory action is awful. It is the same camera angle but it is obvious when they cut it out because the symbol suddenly appears and all the background jumps where the camera wasn't in the exact same place. A much better job could have been done.

I find there's something slightly BBC TWO "Big Read"-esque about the new Inside Out London theme...

Nice to know the BBC One idents do have short versions, even if there's still a couple of shots before we see the circle.

Not at all, in fact it'd be a lovely touch to have yet more layers of intrigue and reason to watch, to see subtle things you hadn't noticed before.

The announcer cutting in randomly doesn't really work

It was worst with the regional one at 6pm, the recorded announcement is all over the top of it meaning the musical build up and logo form up just appears towards the end of the ident and can hardly be heard
