the break bumper seems to be in the same greeny colour, but features the usual animated 4 logo.
That clock looks sh*te, badly kerned and poorly aligned

OK something else strange, not sure if this has been seen or mentioned before...

Uggh... red and green should never be seen.

It looks revolting. Evil or Very Mad

It looks like the Idents are generated live! The two green boxes animate to the voiceover.

Then the boxes shrink and go back into the small box where the clock goes...

The clock is also appearing through trailers...

Well, that would make first night, the 26th December, which doesn't make sense, as that's Boxing Day!
As far as I'm concerned, the first day of Christmas, was Christmas Eve, so twelfth night was last night!

And last night, I took down all the Christmas decorations and the tree. They're now back in the attic.

It seems the idents and graphics from the Breakfast Strand uses real life film. Blinds opening, cerial in a bowl, the grill on, food cooking, etc...

The first day of Christmas is Christmas Day. Christmas Eve is just the eve of the first day of christmas, nothing special. It's like calling the day before your birthday, birthday eve.
Effectively twelth night is therefore tonight, but people have it in their heads about the 6th. My mother said that we take down the decoration on the 6th, i've tried to tell her that twelth night is today, but can I get through to her? No, she is a determined woman.

And on this breakfast strand. It seems that they've tried, but not enough. The clock is nice, bright, and very big breakfasty. I like how the clock animates, but the animations and idents remind me of UK Food. The music is poor. I'm not much for the line up of the programmes though. I think I'd prefer the big breakfast 2001 relaunch back again, or even RI:SE!

The Radio Times said this morning's The Salon was a repeat of the final programme of the series went out before Christmas. The new series starts tonight at 6pm (if you're bothered) and from tomorrow the previous night's show is repeated at 7am.

The Friends re-run at 7:30 each day is series 1. Yay.

I don't like the greenness.
