I missed last night's 'final' ident - slipped up and only recorded 1.55am but I did get the very nice Wales clock closedown!!
What on earth was I talking about on Wednesday?! I've taped most of them this morning while at college and the more I watch, the worse they get. The fact is the announcers have a major excuse to talk from the start making the junctions shorter so not to 'lose' viewers. The font on the trailers just isn't right. The purple box is infuriatingly annoying - especially as it is bunged up on screen during the whole of the junction generally. I just can't imagine watching BBC Two tonight and being stuck with these four idents, now/next/later information and credit squeezing.
So there have now been six showings of Fish. It must be the serious one then!

So far I have only seen Fish and Bounce. The full version of Fish isnt too bad, but it is bad when the short version is used. Not sure about Bounce though, as I think I have only seen a short version of that.
Ident at 3.20 was Fish (Long Version). Still no showing of the illustious forth ident....

I bet they don't show the fourth ident until this evening.
To round up then today so far:
Fish has had 6 showings
Bounce had had 4 showings
Domino (presumably) has had 2 showings
I want more variations!

I think car wouldn't work cos the car itself is blue and the 'personality' 2s have to be white .. i think!

Fish seems to either start right at the beginning with the 2 swimming along, or cut in when the fish first appear. (Not sure if these are also subtitles/non-subtitles variations too). So far I've only seen the last fish reach the 2 once, and that was on the short version (the other times the ident has been used, it cuts to the programme as the last fish swims toward the 2, but before it gets there).
Here is the only change i think should be doe to the idents. drop the purple BBC, other than that, and the addition of a 2W style sidebar in trailers bbc two's new look will be perfect
