I'm gonna take a guess that it was done by someone, without a keen eye for graphics. Just 'typing' text.

I was wondering why BBC NI are not use Sundays dont stop using pres as much as the other parts. It seems for some utter bizzar reason, from next Sunday it will opt out at 9.45 for local programme http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b052q554 With everything else running 30mins later.

All i can say is, that is SO disjointed.

Who si the CA tonight on BBC TWO network? He seems to speak very quickly and in a low voice, so he's hard to understand.

Also, they seem to have aligned the BBC TWO box and the subtitles indicator during the ident. Only took them... how long?

Pity the position of the box and the Subtitles tag is the least of the ident's issues.

I can't stand the way he delivers his announcements, "COMING up next oonnn... BEEbeeseetoooo...". He has weird influxes and rhythms in the way he speaks.

Oh I'm glad it's not just me. He sounds a bit Smashey and Nicey.

He somehow manages to swallow his words. By no means the worst, though, with old raspy herself getting the BBC Three gig now.

There's a male CA on BBC NI and I cannot stand his voice. I actually mute the TV when I hear him speak. It really grates on me.

I know it's been common place for years, but back in the day, such as the 90s, was it normal for the same announcers to do both BBC1 and BBC2, or did they have separate teams?

Delroy has certainly been heard on BBC2 - he was on duty for the infamous breakdown when Lambing Live fell off air and the Coast filled had sound issues.
