A little bird has given me some clues to the new graphics style that Sky News will use from Monday 1st Oct.

Apparantly the new graphics resemble the front page of The Sun newspaper. They have a red and white theme, not sure if it is red text on white or the other way round. The name straps will appear with the job title first and they will all be the same size and font. For example you may get

Reporting
Geoff Mead

or

RAF Pilot
Biggles Flysundone.

The Sky news bug will move to the top left and will be one line. It will look the same as the writting above the set. It will have what has been described as a squiggel in between Sky and News.

Thats all I have for now. I hope to find out some more by Monday.

OK So I should have gone to page 2 and looked at the message thread there!

But the pictures shown are as far as I am aware (and check back to some of my previouse posts, for example predicting Chris Rogers and Kay Burley being a pair.) are almost exactly what Sky will launch next week.

Ah! and you didn't know about the upside down Aston straps did you?
