Did anyone else see the animated Talkback Thames production slide at the end of The Bill? The two Ts animated out of each other like the old THAMES ident, then formed the rest of the logo!

Nice to see animated production slides are making a comeback, what with Granada's as well!

Ooh, Shall have to see that tonight. In the past, I wouldn't have missed something like that, but I haven't been watching The Bill that much of late because the storylines have got too out of hand! Anyway, I won't go there now. Wink

BTW, this is my first post here. Some of you may know me from somewhere else. Very Happy

After having spent an hour downloading various compression tools, I think I have managed to get you the ending of "The Bill" last night.....here goes (3rd time running...all the others were abondoned) by the TV-F server as being over 1Mb

Still not done it.......Grrrrrrrr. I have excellent capture from Sky+, but the files are just too big to be accepted on the forum (I got it down to 2Mb). I have tried converting them to AVI, MPEG, DivX. I have tried compressors and all sorts....

please help......I want to be able to post my TV Caps - not just watch them myself. I have enjoyed the benefit of other people's efforts for so long, it's about time I contributed !!! Confused Confused Confused

PS: If anyone wants me to Email the new T-Thames ident to them I will do, just send me your Email by PM....it seems easier! Shocked.....I have it in every format you could possibly want apart from what is accepted on TV-F

I'm glad Freemantle stuck to their spiel about how they were going to strengthen the long loved Thames brand as the face of their UK production after the years of neglect it suffered under Pearson... Razz Ah, dont you just love it whenever someone takes over and says they'll enhance their new child's identity.

It's more a case of taking in the "rich uncle" and screwing him for every penny I think!!!

THAMES has a reputation, despite it's association with Pearson.

Apologies if my caps were crap in JPEG Confused
