Well done Andrew! I like that one a lot, wasn’t expecting a new one so soon though after the initial batch.

I like that.
It looks quite nice visually. Very colourful.
Who knows, they'll probably show it when School premieres on Two.


Looks just as good as the rest of the first batch of idents.

BBC Two is truly firing on all cylinders with its presentation.

It’s really nice isn’t it? I like Channel 4’s revamp with their character 4, after the mess of the previous rebrand, but I think BBC2’s while simpler looks better. There’s variety and a little surprise about what you’re going to see. It’s simplicity, unpredictability and you can do literally anything with it.

The black and White Arts idents is that only for arts type shows? I have seen it used once for uni challenge. Of course the three white ones are all used for political programmes.

It was used in daytime very early on as well. Very frustrating that they have 16 then use the same 4 or 5 during the evening. In other news, the industrial blocks type ident was used for a network trailer on Grenfell. Until then it was just seen on a BBC2 Scotland trailer for a documentary on apartheid.

Just caught a junction featuring that - my god, doesn't BBC One's current presentation jumble look utterly embarrassing when placed next to that gorgeously slick animation.

Bring back the 1991-1997 stylised figure of '1' (but in entirely newly-created idents and pres)!!!

Have to agree, the BBC One idents look like a poor You Tube attempt compared to BBC Two now.
TPTB surely must see this?

Can’t wait to see what Two have this year for the Christmas period.

I wonder if that recent addition might be one of Aardman's contributions. It looks like it could be stop motion.

Well if 2 has the curve then 1 can have the line.
