Would I be right in thinking they might relaunch next month?

It wouldn’t surprise me there was a tunnel or circle based theme, it appears to fast becoming standard across the BBC. BBC one, circle theme, BBC Radio logos all in circles, BBC Four end boards moved from squares to a circular screen wipe… anyone else spotting the trend?

Not for me, circles have been pretty integral (in the form of the globe) to the BBC since the beginning.

What's with the "enter" part though? What's wrong with 'BBC THREE'?

And one thing which is annoying me about the site; every time I keep pressing back but it takes me back here to TV Forum!

At Blast Film Live at the BFI Southbank, London this Sunday (12th January) they're running a session where they'll be filming people for BBC Three's new idents:

Quote:
Get inside the head of a casting director and learn the ins and outs of what makes a great screentest. This session will be run by BBC Three, who are currently looking for new faces for BBC Three idents (images between programmes). Staff will be present during the session and may ask some participants to stay behind for preliminary filming and the chance to be part of BBC Three content.

Ditto! Doesn't sound very promising - at worst this could end up being the perfect example of everything bad about 'people' idents, but with any luck, won't be.

I'm preparing to eat these words very shortly, but ... "they surely can't make them worse than those UK Gold idents from a few years back."

I suspect Three could transform into BBC Switch Mk II identwise, which would be a catastrophically bad move.

Hopefully I'll be proved wrong.

Not more "live action" drivel. The only "live action" trailer I want to see is one full of these marketing people reversing off a cliff.

That's exactly what I was thinking the other week, it looks as if the 'three' is based off the same font used for the Heart logo
