Really? I think that just looks bad because it is bad and it's set against a BBC News backdrop, rather than a Sport one. So it's a mishmash of branding all round really.

Not exactly BBC Sport operated, but I'm interested in what the regions do, even they you mixed graphics depending on region, North West Tonight and Spotlight seem to have the outgoing graphics with animations, whereas Yorkshire seems to recreate their own due to limitations:

Shouldn't they have called the Owls "Sheffield Weds" there? The full name doesn't fit.

Npower Championship? I'm assuming that graphic is not recent....

They're still using that style. I'm sure when the current BBC Sport graphics launched they did use them properly.

Huddersfield are in the Premier League now and Hull were last season, so it had to be at least two years old. Googled their scoreline, and yes, August 8, 2015 matches it. Opening weekend two seasons ago.

Well it was more a reference to the fact that Npower haven't sponsored the Football League/EFL since 2012-13!

Whoops. Embarassed So the one I linked to isn't the right one then. The BBC page I linked to refers to it as just Championship, no sponsor, for some reason, so I didn't catch that.

I think it must be this one then: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/20650326

That shoddy mock up from Leeds is even more annoying when you consider that the Super League Show is produced from the same studio so they have the kit to do it properly.


I believe the SLS graphics are done in post - Leeds' studio only has an Aston Green for live graphics.

From the news section on bbccreative.co.uk...

The rebrand will then be rolled out across all BBC Sport output, including TV coverage of the athletics from 19th August, PDC darts from 16th September and cycling from 17th September.


Also on the subject of sports graphics on the news, North East and Cumbria have an interesting way of displaying Cricket results - You can see a black V for vs in the middle of the screen but the away team's results are shown below the home team, instead of on the right of the screen.

Also can't remember exactly, but I think NE&C use a sport background for their results.

Seen the new graphics in use on the Darts last night, looked well, love that there's still a dart count and a dart by dart score although it would have been nice to see this scroll up as opposed to just blink change.
Has that generic BBC Sport replay wipe been used in any other sport yet? The pattern seems to match what's behind presenters in the Match of the Day studio.

Yes, it all looked very nice and it was the first time I'd seen the BBC Sport wipe. Isn't much produced nowadays where they don't take a world feed for the live pics (even if they have their own graphics) so I don't suppose we'll see it much.

Really surprising that iOS 11 has a screen recorder.
