The same top of the show light animation was used, but not at the end.
But it did get me thinking... if ITV1 unveils a new look on November 1st, they're going to have to have some new animations, though they'll most probably be the same with a new pre news ident style on top of them!

Not sure. I think it was the split card that flips over. They used that to open with today aswell.

And I'm agreeing with Puffin's Pla(i)ce's Kevin on MPAA, as good as the show is, it's had no rest over the year, it's like friends, and it's on 5 times a week now, and it is just getting tideous.

Indeed. And it must be noted that if you've been following the descriptions in Digiguide like I have. The Thursday episodes are actually random ones from an old series, seemingly fitted in at the last minute when they took That's So Raven off and before new programming starts next week.
The Monday to Wednesday ones started with Series 3 moves through Series 4 in order and now is showing Series 5 and then of course the all new Series 6.

Well "Help! I'm a Teenage Outlaw" starts tommorow at 4.30. Its written by My Parents are Aliens creator Andy Watts so that's a good sign. I'm sure you've seen the trailers, what with them shown full screen umpteen times per day and then squashed as an ECP as well!

Also new series "Barking!" starts next Thursday at 4.30

Indeed they do start tomorrow. Not sure of the looks of Help! I'm a Teenage Outlaw, but I will give it a go tomorrow afternoon.
And then barking starts next week that looks a bit wierd to go into the 4:30 slot, I'd have put Scary Sleepover at 4:30, infact they could have shown All Grown Up from September on a Thursday at 4 instead of 4 MPAA's a week, and then it would have meant that Art Attack could have stayed on a monday afternoon.

They're just messing with CiTV for the hell of it nowadays, it's nearly run as bad as most of the supermarket chains, and ITV!

They practically ruined it by going out of vision, and then continue by mucking about with scheduling, and also choosing wierd programmes and stripping My Parents Are Aliens, and repeats of Grizzly Tales.

Last year's September schedule didn't even look this bad even though it had the Flinstones, at least each day had a bit of variety.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned this morning's MoM as yet. I thought today's show was a good one. I like the way they keep coming up with these one off items such as Darius putting his hand in the fish tank last week and McFly and the whips this week. At least the bands have to work for the free promotion here, although I think Holly gets more worried than the acts do. The 'guess the brother/tour manager' game is also a decent item. Oh and of course there was 'Race Ray' as a new item this week as well.

They are also trying to stop Cakey Sk8 becoming a bit boring by changing it every week, asking the audience, callers etc. I found it funny when whatshisname from McFly decided to use a plate of Jam tarts instead of a cake. You won't get over 6 meters with that. The Doctor was good again with his H2O Open Bracket Water Close Bracket Science Magic!

The whole Noise Next Door thing is a bit low key, after Michael building it up for weeks its barely got a mention, the three guys bearly did anything last week. We'll have to see how well it charts next week, any predictions?

Meanwhile over at CD:UK and it was Cat's birthday, although on the down side we had to put up with Geri Helliwell dominating most of the show on her latest comeback!

I have lost count of the number of times I have seen that trailer for 'Barked' in the last week. It seems to air coming out of EVERY advertisement break that I've seen in the last week and it just damn ANNOYS me to come back from an advert for Action Man to stare down that dog's nose doing "cute" things such as ringing a doorbell.

I wouldn't mind if the programme wasn't quite clearly a blatant remake of 100 Deeds for Eddie McDowd, a programme which wasn't that good in the first place.

They do that a lot which is why the end credit squashes at the end of MPAA arn't needed, as the trailer shown will usually have been on 25 minutes previously!.

Anyway, you can find out more information on CITV's newest series "Help! I'm a Teenage Outlaw" by visiting their new website www.teenageoutlaw.co.uk It's a Greg Taylor job.
I must warn you, if you thought the singing during the opening titles of My Life as a Popat was bad enough you haven't heard nothing yet.

Not sure who makes HIATO, about half a dozen small logos appeared on the endcap. They actually showed the endcap because cleverly they scrolled the credits during the final scene, something MPAA should do.

Was there anything else we haven't seen yet that appeared on "Fancy your own change of scene, CITV just what you want it to be" trailer back in the Summer?
