I have seen so many different versions of the Chris Tarrant and Ant and Dec idents whereas other ones I always seem to see the same one ie Martin Kemp! Surely they must have made more than just the one version of that one?

Well the above one is Londons Burning which ended last summer before the ITV revamp so no I dont think that was used.


It makes you wonder why ITV make them, then dont bother using them. Have they got Money to burn?


Maybe they made them before London's Burning was axed?

I've never seen that Ron Atkinson one before, when has that been used on screen ? I wonder if they've bothered to bus down any of the regional celebs down to London to shoot some new idents, Yorkshire's Duncan Wood could do with one now.

Apparantly Mike Neville has one, but it's never been used.

With all this talk of new idents, does any one remember if these 2 old ones were ever on ITV1, and if so when as I have never seen them before?

Are there any other celebs who made an ident, but it has not been seen yet?



They were used in the "That's Entertainment" promo, but I haven't seen them used as idents. I don't think I ever saw the Paul O'Grady ident, although I'm told it was used as a regional ident for Granada.

Yes - Its on Granada TV. Of the 5 Granada have left (Cilla and Tracey Shaw never used now) the Paul one is the one used the least. I think it’s because of the music on his set having no tune to it. The 3 with the Yellow cloth are used the most on Granada TV.

All four muscial scores have the same tune to it... well, at least I can spot it.

I'm surprised it's used at all now, what with Paul on the BBC.

Yes, I know that, but what I'm trying to say is that, listen to the paul music, then the other 3. The music used on Pauls ident is well.....not as tuneful compared to the other 3.

Well I think we need more regional idents on ITV1 Wales - I like the Jon/Lucy one pictured below but it would be nice to see other HTV presenters on ITV1 Wales idents.

There has been a sneaky peak at the new ITV1 graphics on ITV1 this afternoon!

Did anyone manage to record it?

No havent got the TV on (shock!) !

What was it, where was and what did it look like?

BTW. Whilst going through sites, Ive found old idents of carltons on www.tv-ark.co.uk from 1994 that if implemented with a clear itv logo would be perfect, instead of all of this celebrity nonsense!
