This caption was shown with the BBC One CA overlaying speech at 21.59 this evening after the 'Because the news never ends' N24 trailer (which I've never seen before on any channel but N24).  It started with the oval 'transmitter' rays which flew about the screen and finally stopped with the image of Hart in the middle.  The beginning of the N24 countdown was in the background.

Yeah, I noticed both of them.. the 'radio wave' ovals in the promo were very weird, they kinda flew straight at the screen, nothing like how they act anywhere else.

I thought the documentry itself might be in a new variation of the BBC News corprate style, seing as it was being called a 'BBC News Special', but alas it was plain.

Damn, I missed both. Don't suppose there's any chance of an MP3 or RealPlayer file being put on here somewhere???

The soundtrack was just the beginning of the 90 second News 24 countdown, which you can download over at TV Home...

I don't want to make you miserable, but the BBC TWO purple box may be used on BBC News (with a red background) next year if rumours are to be believed!

Does this mean that all BBC Channels will get this box as the logo??, It would seem strange if just two BBC Channels got the change!

I wondered if anyone noticed the Big Red box on the news? Just appeared with the News Special details. Maybe this could be a sign of where the BBC ONE box is going. Although I very much doubt it. lol

Thanks

The design for the BBC News red box is found on the BBC News microphones.

I noticed that today, big bright red thing that stuck out a mile among 10 or so other microphones with nothing on them, it must look pretty bad on other channels when thhey are forced to display BBC News
