Apologies for the Press Red prompt, didn't realise it was there when I was recording!


Sure, you can record it again in a few minutes without the interactive trigger.

I'm sick of that sparkly noise already on all the bloody trailers.

Unlike everyone else I actually waited until the ident was on television to see it for the same time. I don't think it's too bad at all, though anything's better than those awful idents with kids in silly costumes we've had to suffer for the past four years. However I'd like to know where this community actually is, it must be the only place in the country where it actually snows at Christmas! As for stings/bumpers/animations I wouldn't be surprised if they've gone, I never understood why they continued to use them only at Christmas.


It's worse on TV, the idea's naff and I'm bored of it already. (Live action always wears quickly.)

It isn't the embarrassment of recent years, though.

They have got stings this year. Some are from the ident form up and others have been filmed separately, like a boy struggling to push a snowball or a group of kids chasing a snowball down a road.

I do wonder though why they couldn't have stings with the new idents that they introduced. I really miss that from BBC presentation..

Good point; you never know with these packages, whether elements like stings are included but simply never used.

I know that was the case for the Network previously on BBC1 and also BBC2, and it does seem a shame to leave such elements just sitting there and not getting any plays.
