That works very well. A brilliant use of the clips from the film.


Thanks. Probably only a matter of time before it gets pulled down though, as the intro uses footage from the 2 minute film (which is routinely being pulled down as soon as it's discovered on YT).

Very Good Work D Page - I like the way the film is edited seemlessly

that's amazing, I thought it was cgi!

I did too.


I read some of this thread with complete astonishment at the comments by some people. The race of the characters or absence of the Mother really didn't even register with me at all.

They are just playful scenes about Christmas involving a Father and Daughter. It seems that some people want to read far too many things into what is actually just a humorous set of idents, which are cheerful and festive.

Each cut on the beat, and all dancing/foot tapping/hand gestures shown in the visuals timed to the tempo as best I could.

I do hope so. Even the repetitive "Love" idents/trailers are better than the dreadful oneness. Hopefully we won't be tortured again in 2018.

"Winning Weekend" comes round again on BBC1 (as it did last year), from Saturday. Special ident? I doubt it.

For anyone else who hadn't realised it was stop-motion animation rather than full CGI:

It works great, except for the narrative, one second they're not together and the next they are. A literal continuity error

Great stuff. It has been the biggest presentational surprise all year on BBC1 for me. The sheer amount of hard work and love that has gone into the making of this year's BBC1 Christmas pres is so unexpected, given the last few Christmases, and of course the Oneness tripe we've had all this year.
Stuart, CNash and Rex gave kudos

It did with me but of course it didn't bother me.

My main thought about their race was I bet I know what part of London the creator lives in... he looks very familiar to me as an acrhitypal person from an area I know well
