Hiya,

A puzzling one.. someone just emailed me a little JPG of what looks like the intro screen to a BBC Programme/Channel...

Anyone any idea where it could have come from because I can't find anything about BBC Front Row on the BBC Web site.

Kind regards,

Daniel

I'm guessing it's fake!

Front Row is an arts programme on BBC Radio 4; but this image would not appear to have anything to do with that, it looks to me like a mock-up.

LOL. Thought it looked a bit crap! Smile

Thought it would be a fake or a mock-up, although, then again, I also thought it could be some subscription channel, like Sky Premier, that wasn't available in the UK.

Cheers,

Well unless the BBC has done away with all regulations on size of logo etc.. etc.. and invented a channel no-one has heard of, then yes, I'd say it was fake!

If it isn't a fake (cos Front Row is the name of a cable PPV movie service I believe) it could be a BBC advert ? Either for a 'Front Row seat for Sport' or a 'Front Row seat for Movies'?

Just a guess - could easily be a fake though...

Front Row is ntl's pay per view movie service. I reckon it's definately a fake.
