Just seen the 'Urban Basketball' ident for the first time, IMO it's the worst out of the set next to the beach one.

Well I love it. Very subtle but beautifully shot. One of my favourites along with Bike.


I saw it from quite a distance so it looked rather messy, I may change my mind after seeing it a few more times.

I agree with the Bike ident, it's my favorite and with added touches would make a lovely Christmas ident.

Considering these are so new they could have made one for Christmas as well.

I see it more that it's so new there wasn't anytime to make one, especially considering one still hasn't gone to air, which is what is currently being worked on. We have to remember, there is a lot of editing and computer graphics on these idents, it's not a simple record footage and slap logo on top job (thank god!). However, for next year, they coould use these graphics to add snow to Bike (provided the idents are stillo in use, which is unlikely TBH).

Who's announcing tonight on ITV1? She has a really annoying voice.

A reliable insider has told us that their will be no festive idents this year and if their isn't I'm sure their is reasons why.

ITV have probably been too busy with sorting out other things. They are still making a new ident - which will be taking along time to make.. as another forumer said above.

So they're probably to busy at the moment - to make an ident for christmas. It would be nice if their was one or two however in my point of view, and if their isnt any coming - at least put some sparkle on the idents. It might look stupid - but at least it would be something.

Thanks and Merry Xmas from Andrew

Mind you hasn't it only been last year that ITV1 didn't launch their Chrtsimas Idents on Christmas Eve? I recall Last years 'Strange but Nice' Ident launching on the Friday with Christmas Eve on the Saturday. But wasn't the 2004 'Barbed Wire' Ident & 2003's 'Snowflakes' launched on Christmas Eve with them finishing on Boxing Day?

So I guess the time to find out would be Tomorrow. Mind you if we get the Scrooge from ITV it would be nothing new, Anyone remember 2002's Ident with the lacklustre shooting stars?

Even the insiders were up in arms about that lack of effort!

If I remember rightly, it was reported by some that there would be no festive idents in 2003, and then look what we got.

I’m not expecting a 2003 effort, but it does seem a bit odd that nothing showed up tonight. It still makes sense to launch on Christmas Eve though.. we'll have to see!

Yes, but this time it's coming from a very reliable insider who has accurately revealed information on the idents in the past, right down to the times the new idents would be airing. I've resigned myself to the fact that we won't be getting any Christmas idents this year.
