So does anyone know what CITV looked like this morning. I tuned in at 10:55 and didn't see any presenters

Leah began this morning. No CiTV graphics as they have been using the mini makes titles and stings. Leah appeared at 9:25 saying what was coming on and introduced finger tips. From what I saw the rest of the morning was new trailers, adverts and straight into programmes. To end at 11, the last programme was art attack and they went from the titles of these to the 'They're out, Watch Monday' promo. And that was it.

For Leah's link (may have been more, uncertain.) she presented from a sheltered spot on the old blue sofa overlooking the garden.

SMTV: That 'Rolling Flintstones' bit was a good pun. Doubt they'd have been able to stretch it to a full sketch, but then we did have Stella Street so you never know...

There is not much change on the site, Colour change, logo change and links really. However it does look better now Very Happy

Looks liek they've taken a backwards step and re-introduced the DOG (even if it is transparent- it's now around 3 times the size of the previous one).

Not sure about the CITV breakbumper but the breakflashes look good, animate better than the actual ITV1 breakflash.

They don't seem to have kept the theme music. I think they should have kept it as it was quite recognisable.

It's strange, because I'm not too sure what to make of the DOG. I'd rather it be a more definate logo than the semi opaque grey logo. I'm not one of these obsessive anti-DOG people. In fact I think that they are needed, especially on kids TV.

Caught a glimpse of the breakbumpers. They're fine, and I think they should have incorporated the squares into the new look a bit more.

Where are the presenters though? They played an ident and went straight into the programme (which I like).

The Flintstones - wahey!!!! I nearly posted a thread yesterday asking where it was - the BBC used to broadcast it all the time.

And at least on CITV it's 4:3, not cropped to half the size!

Its a good idea having CITV breakbumpers. Using the standard ITV1 bumpers during CITV time has always looked a bit funny.

Not sure about the DOG, an increase in size versus a decrease in brightness I suppose

The new "tune" they're using sounds very like the fairy liquid one (the tune, not the arrangement etc.).
