It is possible because the 15th of July is the day of the BBC's rebranding to Reith. The company's slowly changing from Helvetica and Gill Sans to BBC Reith Sans and Serif and so will it's news, sport, children's block, channels, etc. So Twitter will eventually come. Smile

Hi, thanks for the explanation. But I know all of that.

And it's a Corporation, not a company.
