... in the Midlands!

I know how common the full idents are now that N.I frequently show them but we just had one here before the news because they accidentally started it over a trail.

Full Tai Chi in the South West. With two announcements - from Plymouth and London!

We just got a Tai Chi Straight ident at around 10 seconds after 10pm or something here in Scotland. Was the news late for everywhere else?

Oh and by the way, don't miss the weather at 10.30pm. Jack Dee's doing it! Smile

Here in the Channel isles they only seem to show one ident, with the same voiceover every time and badly compressed.

No fair i say!

They usually go into N24 quickly in England, but it was a long play of Capoeira just now - about 23 seconds.

Makes a change - They really should always let idents play out before heading into N24.

I find that piano music for the Skateborders Ident really soothing, who else thinks so or is it just me?

It was nice to see that in the midlands, it did seem as though they weren't sure where to place the announcement (presuming it's recorded as it's the same voiceover artist for every announcement) after they realised they cut in too early.

Why does the Skateboarders Ident end like it does? The others that have run through until the end have faded, or is it just the midlands version that freezes?
Surely you'd think that it would end with them skating past the camera and then fading, but no.

Yeah, the sound appeared to have been dipped ever so slightly at 7s and raised again at 10s.

The generic version on the BBC website also appears to freeze at the end as it does with the Midlands one. The guy on the left of the screen certainly looked like he was going to fall backwards off the skateboard.

It was nice to use the full skateboarders ident to introduce the lovely Fiona Bruce. Very Happy
