Inconsequential I know, but I was a little surprised to hear a somewhat familiar tune playing on ET1 tonight, and then to see the old 'BBC Sport' ident!

It was from 'Football, Fussball, Voetball' -- an apparently unscheduled programme filling in a gap tonight.

Do you think we will see new idents when BBC Sport relaunches in a new studio? Will this be on August 18th with start of new season? They must be doing something in the studio because they presented Grandstand from Ascot on Saturday when it would probably have been done from the studio!

Was Sunday Grandstand from the usual studio ?

Next time I meet my contact (Friday) I'll let you know how the relaunch is looking.
