One question, I've seen a clip of Newsline from the afternoon summary which is on BBC TWO, and they used the sting. Do they use the sting on BBC TWO Nations on SKY Digital? I know when it started it didn't, but have they changed it or something?

BBC Two Wales analogue don't use a sting or full titles for their afternoon bulletins.  They just start the bulletins (from the continuity set) with either 'Good Afternoon' or 'and now the latest from Wales Today'.  I preseume this is the same for Digital viewers as the continuity is usually in widescreen at that time and would probably come from the digital suite?  Maybe Geriant could shed some light on this for us??

BTW, a good place for those of you with video cards (not me - yet:( ) to capture the wales today titles/end sting is from the late bulletin on BBC One Wales.  The continuity announcer reads the headlines over the main title sequence whilc usually lasts about 1'30' and then plays the end sting/graphics.  AFAIK this is the only Nation that does this?
