BBC 3 and BBC 4 will definately be numerical, ie. not BBC THREE and BBC FOUR. I'm not sure about BBC ONE, but BBC TWO will stay, as there is already a graphical '2'.

The BBC 2 logo is timeless, it will never go out of fashion!

yeah, the 2's are cool, but the bbc balloons in my opinion are a bit crap.

Very good. I think that's all they would do really. I didn't relaise there were 3 blocks, until you pointed it out. I didn't twig on.
I would except the BBC to change it though, but they probably won't.

it actually surpirses me that they didn't do that back in 1997 or 1991. By the way what about the old 1 (1991-1997) in forms of the 2's such as Powder, Car, Neon, Dog, Paint, etc. could you or asa create mock ups of these???

Will I do?

Couldn't be bothered to recreate the bottom bit properly.

BTW - the 2 is in Gill Sans. Did BBC decide on their new logo as long ago as 1991?

I hope BBC One scrap the world map theme.

Bring back the old '1', and scrap those Blummin' balloons!!!

Theres only 1 or 2 balloons I like, but as soon as they are pulled from the skies, the better!

The 1 i meant was the 1 that was on the globe between 1991& 1997 but the mock up is good though

If you can furnish me with a copy of that 1 and just that 1 then i'll add it in and upload it.
