Yep, I noticed that as well - they seem have another one appearing here and there as well, it features what looked like two tall skyscrapers at either end of the screen. Reminiscent of Sky One...

I wonder if there will be idents and menu idents to go with these breakbumpers

There should be, a change of music is also needed.

The one that does that the most is the Ribbons ident, there are so many similarities between that and the 1996-7 Sky One look.

If I`m not mistaken the background looks like its been taken from the `unused` ITV idents....

Click on the Granada clip in the storeroom section on the Continuity Booth website to see what I mean...

As mentioned in the ITV Day thread that's part of the unused ITV Hearts idents at The Continuity Booth.

It seems so, but if you compare the images together, the windows are slightly different. Perhaps the same idea, rather than same footage?

That's rather more likely. I can't imagine Bruce Dunlop Associates borrowing images from English Pockett (makers of the unused idents).

I think these breakbumpers are brilliant compared to the standard ribbons. These breakbumpers need to be made into idents as well, therefore bring ITV1 a bit more up to date.

They're a nice update to the current set.

ITV seem to be stuck in a rut, if you know what I mean. The current ITV1 idents were nice to begin with, now they just seem to repeat on you something awful. ITV1 needs a wide variety of idents, perhaps one batch on one day, another batch the next day, etc.
