In the Channel Islands when Guernsey and Jersey share shows and visa versa instead of our local jingles sometimes they say BBC Across The Channel Islands followed by when they say BBC

In the video linked to in this thread a few weeks ago it was revealed that Radio London will only be using voiceovers, however sung versions have been created in case they change their mind.

It's just Suffolk and London to go now.
London will be the one to watch, to see whether it will be sung or voiced.
I think with the nature of the station, the majority of programmes will be voiced and the entertainment-style ones will be sung.

Radio Suffolk has changed over this morning. Only Radio London remains, the first to adopt the second Mcasso package, and now the only station still using it.

but they played a reelworld jingle then switched back? it's almost as if they don't like them 🤔

Or they can't be bothered to use the new ones coherently

Yes, but they use the Reelworld package at 6am for some strange reason. It may have something to do with that the first hour of the early breakfast show is networked across the other LR stations where it uses Reelworld, then London takes the second hour alone. At 6.02, it's back to the Mcasso package for the remainder of the day.

So London is still on Mcasso then

Today’s Early Breakfast jingle was the same as Monday’s. It seems like the Mcasso and Reelworld jingles are combined into a new file… They did not ‘switch back’.
What’s this all about?

Yes the 5-6am hour uses the new jingles in a 'across BBC local radio format' on London. Then the 6am news bulletin is a bit different to normal and used as the morning update from BBC London on smart speakers, so I'd imagine that's why they use the new jingles branded as London for that bit then switch. All a bit piecemeal though!

And the blip after the 6am news is started with the new jingle but ended with the old one. The combination is strange.
Even the other stations sing their station names, Radio London reads the name. Here’s the difference between the Reelworld jingle and London’s combination.
