Thanks, it was the Brass Band ident used before Emmerdale that threw me (plus the fact the ones before the national and regional news wouldn’t be Christmas ones either)
As well as the christmas idents, ITV use a few of the winter idents mixed in such as the Brass Band one and the Log Fire one. I love the fire ident, its nice and relaxing, but I hate the brass band one, its the music on it I really don't like.
It was Christmas idents up to Emmerdale, fireworks ones from Corrie through to a film after the midnight bongs, then a dog ident and a bus ident. And the usual news idents of course before ITV News.

Do you think they deliberately scheduled Pug Wash as the last one, as that was either the first one used or was at least the highest profile one of the first launch batch
