Right just to tidy up this thread a bit, there only a few bits n bobs needing to be tidy up. We should be finally finished Laughing

It seem Granada Has one other version of slides/press from Late 94. Was these used in from Sept 94 - xmas?
Its unsure if it was used before September 94.

There still a few points needing to be resolved. You have to wonder how it can four years still to get to the bottom:
* Actually date when was the Cake was dropped, either 1st OR 20 April 1998
* Rough date in 1991 when Yorkshire ident changed the ITV ident : Earliest start date July 1991
* When Did Thames dump the ITV ident 28 Oct? 4 November 1991?:
* Actually date for Carlton televisions revised idents in late 1993
* Granada is there REALLY Swat team ident from 96-99???


E4: Between 2001 - 2004.
* 18 January 2001. UNTIL Spring 2002??? : http://tvr.metropol247.co.uk/thetvroom.com/ch-4/e-4-01-01.html
* 9 Thursday August 2001: http://tvr.metropol247.co.uk/thetvroom.com/ch-4/e-4-03-01.html
* Late 2001: http://tvr.metropol247.co.uk/thetvroom.com/ch-4/e-4-05-01.html

I uploaded that clip, from memory I am certain the colour from the rectangle was dropped in favour of a wavy/flag look from January 1994, this may have even been from the first day. Granada were quite seasonal in their presentation, but you may be right, the Flapping Standard (or whatever it was called), certainly came in later during 1994.

The dark blue look G Arrow look debuted on Monday 2nd January 1995, at 9.25am, for certain.

The colour look was used go for at least 18 months, making it one of the longest looks to be used by Granada.

Light Green look Jan - Autumn 1989
Balloon in the sky: Autumn- Xmas 1989
Water/ chalkboard type look early 1990.
White: June 1990 - spring 1991
Purple/violent look with flowers: Spring - Autumn 1991
Glass look: Oct 91 - April 92
Colours Bars: May 92 - Jan 94???
Flag type: Jan - Sept 1994
Strange brown look: Sept 94-

It doesn;t look like there was short live extra look between Jan - April 94 but more likley as yo usay it was all in one look with the flags appearing within the package.

Of course there were the strange idents like Art, Candle, Eye, Glass and soap etc, added to the 95 look Very Happy It strange how Granada upped its game with Pres during the 90s.

The flag ident was used until the end of 1994. In terms of presentation and promos, I know for fact they had an Easter look in 1994, but I don't know if there was anything else in the interim. I seem to have uploaded a good chunk of mid 1990's Granada on YouTube, knowing this now I kind of regret not recording more at the time.

This could actually be in the missing archive thread... Ive never seen that Next sting used at 38 sec. Was it very short lived?

Significantly at 4:18 a rare sighting of a Thames show, being promoted on LWT. Note it refers to 'ITV' and never Thames

I seem to remember that being fairly common, in both directions, was always 'ITV'

I seem to remember that when there was a fad for 'mini-series' set over several nights they promoted the whole thing as being on ITV

To be fair LWT along with YTV, TT, Grampian and border all took those ITV sytle promos, form 1989.
