I couldn't believe that STV went in to the News Special with their festive ident along with jingle .Following the ITN endcap the full festive ident and jingle formed up with announcer saying that was an ITV News Special etc etc Shocked .What the hell do these people in pres do at STV i felt this was totally inappropriate.

I know I said this in the other thread but I think the festive ident was there to fill up time because the ITN caption did stay on for around 15 secs so the programme might have finished early.

Possibly, although it's worth noting the other ITV News Special, last Monday was also followed by the sombre ident and annoncement that it was a change to the schedule etc.

Yeah it was a very rare occasion last Monday on Scottish TV. After the ITN caption, we had a static ITV1 logo on for around a minute then the sombre ident and then back to normal.

Not at all surprised. They've gone into John Pilger with Ant and Dec...
