Birdwatchers into McCann Documentary? Appallingly inappropriate.

'What should we look out for?'
*lifts up binoculars*
'Ah, the girl that went missing a decade ago.'

I don't disagree with the sentiment here. Extremely in bad taste as it stands; could have been easily avoided with using another Oneness ident instead and saving Birdwatchers for the News at Ten.

Or, continuing to hammer on the notion that the current set isn't even suitable for all subjects.

That tweet is growing in retweets and likes fast, someone at the BBC is going to be wincing at the screen when they watch it back. Awful.

For those who are interested in such things this weeks PoV is covering the idents. And the week after has a look behind the scenes at BBC News too.

I'd like to cover the idents ....with about 3 feet thickness of cement poured on top of them, with dynamite sticks randomly dispersed and once dry, blown to smithereens.

Huffington Post has picked up on last night's gaffe. Includes damage control that can easily be seen beyond the smoke and mirrors. Regardless, the shock value will run out over the next few days - most will forget by then.
