So which 'voiceover' are they? Anybody got a clip of them doing some announcing - I can't even think who's voice it is!


I could be getting them all mixed up here, but I think the man could have been Dominic Green.
The only two announcers I am always certain about are Mark Manchester and Gina Mellotte. Not sure who the woman is, but the Katy he mentions is likely to be Katy Pullinger, not sure if that is her speaking though.

Just thinking today - have we still not seen the 4th ident - Dodgems is't it. I've seen sunflowers, lanterns and snakes & ladders, but not dodgems. Has anyone else seen them?

Nope it hasn't been used. Am guessing there was a problem with it or something and they had to withdraw it maybe

Funny clip. Much better than daytime TV being shown at 8pm. Whose stupid idea was that?

The same people who gave Piers Morgan his own chatshow presumably.

Can't be any worse than Dancing on Ice Friday.

If they insist on putting daytime shows from 8-8.30pm then at least make it something a bit better than Dickinson's Real Deal. Although I wouldn't put it past ITV to put This Morning or 60 Minute Makeover on in that slot.

I'm quite surprised they aren't taking advantage of BGT and putting an extra show on on a Friday though.

Well it didn't work for Dancing on Ice, and there isn't much they could do with BGT either - it's not like The X Factor where they could have previews of the weekly live shows.

Personally for these half-hour slots I think they should go back to basics and film a load of Family Fortunes (regular editions) and perhaps replace Millionaire with the revamped half-hour format Millionaire Hotseat to use in these slots as and when required.

Britains Got More Talent type show, or indeed a condensed version of BGMT. Good alternative to Eastenders, and lets face it ITV will never commission a worthwhile show in that slot, it will always be filler or PSB. Perhaps they should trial TV Burp there though, or even just put You've Been Framed on which gains a consistent audience of about 4m.

I think Family Fortunes is fine as a celeb show, we only know 2 of the 10 contestants anyway!

Could it be that they're waiting to air it before Britain's Got Talent? By the name, I'm imagining that this will be a more upbeat ident used for entertainment programmes, but who knows.

I'm liking the overall sprucing up of the old idents along with all elements of the new presentation, but I would like to see them do new arrangements for the old idents. I know that there are subtle differences between them, but the new idents just show what can be done with the simple tune.
