I saw this today on Newsroom south east:

Before the 1:30 regoinal news,An unusal BBC1 ballon ident appeared. This then cut (after 2 seconds) into the normal South East ident. (I captured this!)

But when I pressed 'Slow Motion',I saw the unuseal ident with a 'BBC ONE' caption,and no web adress!

What went on there?

Sounds like they were a bit late opting out of the network feed. Although as to the unusual BBC ONE ident, well it could just be that the wrong ident went out.

A bit of pointless info, that report was about a gas explosion which we heard this morning. Its about five streets away from me. But no-one here cares, so I'll shut it.
