BBC TWO Christmas 2015 presentation

The Network, once again, used Silk to introduce Daily Politics wheras NI used the short cut version of the 2011 Christmas ident with the choir singing 'Ring Christmas Bells' over it.

Promoting a non-existent channel, eh?

I think Network have judged this one right on this occasion.


The short 2011 edit you refer to, which is probably an NI exclusive, is arguably the best re-edit of the lot though; the absence of sound effects isn't as jarring from its advanced starting point, with the 2 already in place.

BBC Scotland has updated its xmas promo, ie refreshed it.

that was out of the hat.

It was just used again on BBC TWO Scotland into the snooker. The song the choir are "twoing" along to is 'Ding Dong Merrily on High'. There is a bit of clapping as well - lovely.

*sigh*

And they still can't get the Subtitles tag and the box aligned correctly.

What's the point of the Subtitles tag? Aren't practically all of the BBC's programmes Subtitled now anyway, and have been for years?

That looks rather nice.

Could somebodt with the talent put that background on the yellow idents please. Think it would look so much better.

BBC channels have had 100% of programmes subtitled since 2008, according to Ericsson (formerly Red Bee)

I might be wrong, but I don't think Channel 4 have been tagging shows as subtitled since around 2001!
