Yes Smile
More information: all the idents now have a unique soundtrack, I haven't seen the rain ident yet which I hope is using the original music which I liked.

Tonights 5pm junction into the Simpsons saw two idents played in a row, first being the rollerskating ident and then the park ident with a simple 'Your watching the Simpsons on Sky1 HD' announcement.

The new Sky News Arabia channel, due to launch next year, appears to have adopted the transparent style of logo that we have seen in the new logo for the entertainment channels.

That logo looks very good compared with the white and red of the Sky News UK logo. Could they update the UK logo to have the same style as the Arabia channel, and most other Sky channels?

I dislike the way there not changing the font of 'news' to the main sky font like all their other channels have. I would much prefare something like this...

Who is the new continuity announcer on sky1 today?, their making lots of mistakes. Smile On the program menu at 5pm they started talking about 5 seconds late and got the time for an idiot abroad wrong plus said it was on sky hd 1. They were out of breath by the end of the menu and let the following ident go out clean. At 5.30 they lowered the volume about 5 seconds before talking. Then at 6 they voiced the menu correctly but in the following ident they lowered the volume but didn't speak. At least they didn't mess up at the 7pm junction. I know its their first day but there so many mistakes.

Again the same continuity announcer has messed up another junction today at 5pm reading out the wrong times for Comedy Friday and realizing a simply cutting off halfway through the ident Embarassed

Sky Bet is now using the Sky Sports style of logo, while Poker, Bingo, and Vegas are using white and colour logos, in a similar style to Sky Atlantic, Arts, etc.

That's a rather half-hearted comment, Martin. Laughing
