May I suggest either staying up or setting your recorder for 02:32 tonight?

While searching for idents on Sky Q, there is an unaired BBC ident titled "BBC Event Safe 1", which has the BBC logo in gold in front of a purple silk background. This might be a generic ident for when Queen Elizbeth dies.

There are also versions for BBC One and BBC Two, which are silent versions of the main idents. BBC One has the generic one and BBC Two has will be retired Silk.

Not one to usually do this, but is there anyone who could capture these? Would be fascinated to see them.

Have to agree with whoever said it reminds them of this, though...

To be fair, all of the BBC national radio stations has a similar 'partial numeral' style during 1991-1995. It wasn't specific to Radio 2, although 'less partial' for Radios 1 & 4.

That text in the R4 logo looks just like the "FOUR" text in the BBC 4 logo... interesting.

The box logo will stay the same, but it's new idents and on-screen presentation.

Goodbye to the 2...

But on the one on iPlayer 'BBC TWO' is centre bottom.

It's extremely difficult to capture anything from SkyQ sadly. Believe me, I've tried...

I tried unsuccessfully with an HDMI splitter, and assumed it was because it was HDCP 1.4. I'd assume one would have better look if the splitter could cope with HDCP 2.2, but who's to know what secrets lie within a Sky Q box to stop any capturing.

Set your recorders for tonight! If you intend on staying up at 2am in the morning for this special tribute to the 2s
A sad day today for many presentation fans but I can't wait to see the curve in action tomorrow.
