At 1:39 in to that, you'll notice a Next menu variant that you'll not see in England.

By that I'll take it as 'currently', as it has been used on Network - though the recording I have is from July 2009 Wink


Really? I'd like to see that.

There's a grab using that design on TV Live...

...or do you mean a menu featuring the Mirror clip behind the '2'? In which case, you're right, I've never seen that on Network.

I admit I have not kept an eye on what has been happening, but why is BBC 2 HD promos yellow?

Aye, fairly sure the use of Mirror is being referred to there... That black version is probably the nicest of the pointer designs at present.

I see Final Score dosent get a HD run like it did when it was on bbc HD this is poor


Given Final Score is 95% made up of three people sat in a studio and a load of scorelines, I'm not really sure what the benefit of showing it in HD is.

It was an understandable oversight to be broadcast on the day of changeover, but a week later?

Devil's always in the detail, isn't it?! You're right, it's a different view through the 2.

Looks like Google are using the Alt-J (a.k.a BBC2 Tent Arctic Ident) music to advertise their Science Fair this year.

EDIT: BTW has the Tent Festival ident been seen or is it withdrawn?

Withdrawn I suspect. Shame to see another perfectly good ident dropped.

Well, naturally, the ident where the new music would fit most comfortably would be the one to be dropped.
