In July! (July 2005)

I know we're an impatient lot, but Christmas idents in July!


Yesterday (at 12noon I think) upon returning from the news to This Morning, an ITV Day ident I hadn't seen before cropped up.

So what's perfect for a summers day - a family building a snowman of course!


It's quite a nice ident - but surely one for Christmas, not July!

The one on the bottom left of this image? I think I read somewhere that they (whoever 'they' are) asked people what they do in the daytime, to get a good idea of what the idents should contain. It'd be a bloody boring ident if they asked me what I do in the daytime.

These are still IMO the best idents ITV has had recently, the colours are really nice. The logo is part of the scene sometimes, when people walk or move in front of it. It's a shame the rest of ITV1 couldn't be as good.
