The thing is, even though they're not the best idents in the world, it is nice to have an air of familiarity. BBC One, for what it is, offers that to the viewer and in a way, I think having the regular idents back after a depressing Christmas look will be a pleasant relief this year.

Maybe the dreadful Christmas idents were a ploy to make people think the regular idents are good...

BBC One's Christmas idents were certainly VERY disappointing this year. From a technical perspective, the 'film' was nicely done. However, I'm not a fan of this overly sentimental tosh. BBC One should be using the opportunity to sell its product - not indulging in copycat John Lewis twaddle. The idents were frankly awful and I'll be glad to see the back of them.

I did have a chuckle at this:

Almost as if BBC Creative wrote the article.
