That Granada News logo looks a bit naff.

So that new ident is going ahead then? I've not seen the trailer yet!! Must see it before tomorrow.

Any chance of you getting any screen shots from the trailer? And does it show the new studio?

If there is a new logo, look at the endcap of Coronation Street tonight. It'll have it on! Has the Granada generic logo been edited (And Tyne Tees' for that matter) or are they waiting for the new ITV1 idents?

I don't like that logo at all it looks very cheap, tacky and old fashioned.

Granada mustn't have liked the logo we thought they were going to use as they didn't use a new ident to introduce Granada reports and even had the usual 'A Granada Production' end-board. The new Granada Reports/News is much better than the old look - Especially the short bulletin set!! - Very little purple!!!

I don't particularly like it, but its better than the old ones! Still not a spot on North West Tonight - I think I'll still watch NWT!

Mmmm not sure about this, is that a dog in the bottom left hand corner ? the colours are not nice. At least you get to see that egg being thrown at Prescott every day in the titles !

Just watching NWT to try to make a comparison and so far it looks like Granada's winning! Granada had an interview with the brother of the guy involved with the Tailban, but only a report on NWT.

Studio is impressive, but I was surprised to see Granada News. I was expecting Granada Reports branding on all programmes, as RB pointed out this always used to happen.

Music is great too, titles are ok but nothing out of the ordinary.

Certainly a vast improvement on Granada Tonight and from first impressions it appears to be more impressive than NWT.
