I agree with the previous poster, "BBC One" bit looks too much like the old "sky one" to me.

Even though it would be great to see all of them beforehand (as clean versions) it would be shame to spoil the surprise now we had a glimpse of some of the others such as "Moon" and "Surfers".

RED BEE certainly had fun with the expenses budget in filming some of these - Croatia, Mexico etc......

How long before we speculate about how we think the christmas ident's will look adopting this new look.

A load of Santa's reindeer chasing each other round the moon to create a perfect circle!

When i first saw that, I did for a split-second think it was a clock.

They all look pretty classy. I like the look of the still of kites the best I think. Hippos looks...interesting

The windows one is my favourite.

I'm liking - not as much as the balloon, but better than the dancers. At least we now have a concrete symbol.

Now sure about the lower case one - very weak in my opinion. Would have been better keeping the existing BBC ONE in Gill Sans.

Looking forward to seeing them though, and particularly hearing the music.

The music seems very subtle, compared to the obvious theme of the current dancers, much like the Balloon music, but happy and positive, and nice random beeps as the logo animates in nicely.

Also as for Fontsmith, they now have Channel 4, Film 4, More 4, E4, ITV, and now BBC One under their belts...

The Moon is my favourite one. Overall, I like the new look, I really hope this will mark the return of the clock.

I'm surprise that there has a Press release on the new identity so early, nearly two weeks beforehand, must be a record.

Very neat!

If we can't have the globe back, then the circles are the next best thing.

Much much better than Ms Heggessey's politically-correct creations...

Moz - where did you get those from

It's a shame they are on here as .art files, I wanted to make a nice new desktop from them
