Schedule update: Harry & Meghan: A Royal Engagement replacing Panorama at 7:30. Panorama has instead been moved to 22:45, pushing back HIGABMNFY to 23:15, the repeat of Michael McIntryre to 00:00 and the repeat of Graham Norton to 01:00.

BBC One will join the news channel at 01:55 instead of 1:25

Already I'm starting to think the coverage is becoming excessive. This is going to be an intolerable few months.

Funnily enough, I didn't see any of it last night. Amazing how easy it is not to watch it.

Did anyone notice after The One Show, the Now next graphics was the old style plain red circle endboard? Including the animated circle and not the swirls.

That was for viewers of network by the looks of it.

Another unaired Oneness ident - Drone Racers. Not just Wild Campers that hasn't made its way!

It looks like one of the later idents that would have been aired this autumn.

EDIT: Following a Points West interview with Martin Parr which has indicated that Oneness will continue, it looks like this ident, along with Wild Campers, will be saved for the new year...

EDIT 2: Both idents are now airing on BBC One

Yup. Like the rest of the Oneness idents.

I wonder why the camper video hasn't appeared. And this also proves there were more created ( which some people never believed ) and were just thrown in the bin...

The BBC can happily throw away crap ident... yet can't afford a decent package... if there have to bring back an old package bring back the dancer, I would love to see Scottish Tumbler again.

I can imagine the Drone ident appearing 1st Jan to tie in with people getting them for Christmas. Okay, the drone fad may have died off a little with more regulation, but don't write the ident off yet.

Whilst I'm fully aware that the Oneness idents have been disliked by many on here (I'm no big fan myself though they are growing on me -very very slightly), I think anyone hoping for them to be withdrawn in 2018 is going to be disappointed. As far as I know, there's never been any formal confirmation that the Oneness idents would only last for a year.


I'm glad someone else has said that -- they've grown on me too. The initial wave of negativity lead to group-think in my opinion. I believe the idents work in showing groups of ordinary people, doing things together, across the UK. It reflects 'nation speaking unto nation'. And using the ambient sounds instead of music is a nice change. Not everything has to be accompanied by 'pop'.

Long live Oneness.

The mulled wine is being drunk early I think.
