That I don't know, but I wouldn't be surprised if they were. If so, then the 2001 tree will be shown for the 5th consecutive year.

Must admit that though I thought the new BBC Digital ad with all the heads was sickening, the Christmas version is rather nice.

Still hope the BBC don't launch their Christmas idents until - well, Christmas!

Also notice ITV programmings are now being sponsored by Rennie!


I have to agree the Christmas one is quite nice but the original makes my skin crawl!!



Well, they've been axed now (another expensive ad ditched!). The official reason is due to the number of complaints, but I suspect the current Iraq hostage situation is also a consideration.


Back on topic, and it's probably been mentioned but I notice the BBC TWO trailers have the TWO disappear towards the end then a sparkle thing spell it out on the logo.

There should be an apostrophe in there.

UKTV Xmas pres is now in place, seems the same as lastyear, random channel themed images, wipes between in the 3 stripe format, ending with the coloured stripe endboard, with snow falling and forming ontop of each stripe...

Channel Five have theirs launched at 10am this morning.

It is the same as last year with the block of ice.

I think its pretty much certain now that the BBC 1 Xmas idents will launch this Saturday 17th December. All promotions for next week carry the glitter effects.

As we all say far too early!

I'd have no problem with them though using the ident just for Christmas specials in the week before Christmas, before using it at all junctions from Christmas Eve.

I noticed they used it last night briefly before Five News aswell, its a good ident, i just hope they don't go overkill and use it for the next five years like channel 4's christmas trees!

We knew that anyway. But I see what you mean, yes. The Strictly Come Dancing trailer had all the Christmas glitter effects.

Yes, that was the first thing that struck me on seeing it. Not that hard to believe sadly.

I have pointed it out to them. Will be interesting to see if they take the trouble to fix it.
