Thought Sky1 would have been guaranteed a festive variation; it wouldn't have been very good mind but still seems like an oversight.

Possible that the 3rd of December might be considered a bit too early?


yes, but then why launch Christmas break bumpers and stings early?

Pick TV is not using any Christmas presentation.
Seems rather odd... their ident would've been the easiest of them all to make Christmassy, because it's just cheap CGI. Add the same sparkles as the Sky channels have on their bumpers, and viola. Well, that's as much effort as ITV1 went to in the celeb ident era. I can only assume the reason they didn't is because it would make Sky 1 and Sky 2 look bad! Laughing

I never thought I would see the day where Challenge has better christmas presentation than Sky 1. Shocked

Bad hangover so I've only just seen what I'd recorded overnight - but I do like this ident from Challenge

I'm surprised that Sky haven't created one generic Christmas ident, and added on each channel logo with the sparkles. Didn't they do that one year?

I meant a generic 'Merry Christmas' ident that the channels added their logo to.

Nice to see the "Merry Christmas" snowmen back on Sky Sports but I wonder if they will show the Andy Gray and Richard Keys snowmen this year? Laughing

New ident from Sky1, for 'treasure island' and it uses the 1 !

Makes sense, Treasure Island has a large enough budget to make an ident (appointment to view TV and all) whereas it'd probably have cost Trollied or The Café a decent amount of their budget to do more than they did.

Hopefully a new ident for Glee will appear soon.
