It would also appear the '5' is somewhat left of centre in the left-hand circle.

Am I the only one who is actually looking forward to seeing how bad the idents / pres are on Monday morning, in a kind of perverse way? If they turn out to be okay, not created in PowerPoint, in the right aspect ratio, and the programme menus don't feature WordArt, I'll be very disappointed.

The stupendous lack of attention to detail shown so far in the logos though does make me think I'll be in for a treat on Monday.


In that case you might be disapointed. By the sounds of it, the idents and presentation items have been created by an outside organisation, and therefore may well be half decent, but the still have to work with the inhouse created logos which not much will be able to be done with I imagine.

I'm half hoing that that 5star logo is just an inital sketch and that a better version will be created for use on screen that's actually all lined up properly.

I expect you're not alone.

Its that same sensibility which allows My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding to have become something of a hit.

Well boo to that!

Seriously though, whichever agency is making the idents and pres, let's hope for their sake they've got an industrial power turd polishing machine at their disposal having to work with those logos. Wink

Probably, yes.

Well the 5* idents have been designed by Foreign Office, responsible for the thoroughly decent current Fiver look. As you say, all depends on how tied their hands were.

Am thinking its just a coincidence.

She was surely always bound to have meetings with Channel 5 after Live From Studio Five?

Are you mad? Emma Willis would be perfect after her work on Big Brother over the last two years. She seems to really love it.

2 Years? She only worked on this years series did she not?

While Emma is a good presenter, you need a bright young new(ish) presenter and Kate fits that bill.

You also need somebody with some vague BB background and somebody who is good like Emma Willis, and Kate does not fit that bill.
