I'm impressed, thanks to a badly placed Radio 1 logo, they managed to make the ECPs look worse! I didn't know that was possible really.


It would look a lot better if they just had the numbers in the circles, similar to the logos used on BBC iPlayer.

So the BBC now feel it's right after more "extensive research" along with the usual "viewers like it because it keeps them informed".

That may well be the case but it doesn't mean credits and promos can't live side-by-side in some sort of harmony. The guys at ITV and C4 have been doing it right for years.

Oh, and we should be grateful they're now 30% bigger.

Well, step by step to making them better...

There was nothing wrong with the system they had before of having credits rolling on the right/left depending on the channel, and the information appearing at the side. They should revert back to that.

Once again a BBC suit is talking out of their proverbial on Points Of View. These new style credits shouldn't have been introduced in the first place. I doubt they asked anybody and decided on change for changes sake. Rolling Eyes

Did you notice that other woman that gave us the previous claptrap about the credits was gone? And yet the bull$h!t continues from another voice.

I was watching Five and their credit squeeze is much better than the BBC's effort.
