There was certainly one after "Design Wars" for "I Want that House"


Lovely.

One thing, you know mostly on a Sat on programs near the end, the ITV1 dog comes up with the next program, a little like the thing on ITV2, why is it only used on a sat? I would prefer this to be used more often.

ECP failed again coming out of Emmerdale. How many times have we seen this sort of thing now, you'd have thought they'd have got the hang of it. Just what is the problem ?

It seems that there is a few of these Creature Comforts idents going around. I've seen at least two versions, I wonder how many there is

But it doesn't actually say that the programme is coming next. It just says: "ITV1 DESIGN WARS" etc.

Yeah I noticed this. I would have thought they would have done the itv2 thing where they use the 4 squares to reveal 'NEX' n the blue with the 'T' on the yellow square. At the moment it seems as though they are using it as a excuse to add a dog to itv1, if only for a few seconds!

Something strange with one of the Creature Comforts idents today. It seems to have used the old music over it!

And a good excuse for the ITV1 logo to enter Grampian/Scottish/UTV land. Surprised UTV don’t shove an over sized UTV dog over it to cover it up. Can they do that? The network feed UTV receive, can they do something or another to add dogs etc over the ITV network feed they got pumped through, or is that not pos?

In the old days on the ITV2 network feed UTV got, they shoved an over sized UTV2 dog over the ITV2 one right??

What Junction/Junctions have you seen them? I bet they use one before Corrie.

Well the new 'up market' music doesn't really fit with cartoony idents. I prefer the old music anyway.

Wasn't used before Corrie though.

They used the new music before the slugs ident, right before Creature Comforts itself (8pm).

A new ident last night that I haven't noticed before was Mark Durden-Smith on the light tubes set.

There was also someone different on the ITV1 Yorkshire ident yesterday at 7.30, its usually Pam Ferris!
