Just thought I'd mention that it's four years ago today that the current BBC logo was introduced and we saw this for the very first time:

We don't definately know that! Very Happy

The BBC has a right to celebrate at the moment - the BBC One Balloon, the 1st anniversary of Breakfast, and the launch of BBC LDN.

How about this as a montage of balloon idents? I had way too much time on my hands today but quite good idea for closedown/startup/crossover to News 24 IMO.

Right click to download BBC One Ident Balloon Collection (604kb/33secs)

Asa, you're not the only one with too much time on your hands!
I must admit I also made a montage the other week featuring all but one of the regular balloon idents, but as 15Mb RealVideo file it's way too big to upload!
