They're using the TMi - Live DOG on the iPlayer? Can't they just keep a static TMi logo?

Its a good series so far. Not as good as Series 1 but far better than series 2

I think because iPlayer's recorded it as live...


Did they have this when it was re-broadcast on the CBBC Channel at 5?

No sign of any new Basil Brush as far as I can see. And this is normally the time of year they broadcast the new series.

Maybe he's been told to fox off? ( Boom! Boom! )

For a while on the CBBC repeats last year they had the normal CBBC DOG and a smaller version of the TMi logo (non rotating) underneath the CBBC DOG. Towards the end of series 2 on the repeats they just had the CBBC DOG.

Basil Brush is apparently no longer in production because Basil's Swap Shop is cheaper to make.

Bearing in mind the entire series managed to jump the shark in one giant leap between the end of the fourth series and the start of the fifth series by doing a MPAA-type Series 8 effect on it, perhaps its just as well Basil isn't going to see a seventh series of his show.

Unless they were joke answers for the game on today's TMi in serious game show, Dani Harmer was actually born in February and not March! Laughing

Its a shame they haven't continued with remixing the jingle into different styles [eg - Dance, Rock Hard/Light, Ska] like the January/February Ident update, and instead just gone for a cheaper tweak of voices.

For true anoraks the ident music has been updated to include CBBC sung in Burps, Gargles, Kids, and Vocoder Effects. Wink

Not a good move to change the CBBC at the end, especially with burps, messing with a strong brand in my opinion. Though hopefully very easy to edit out. Nice to see that they are introducing new idents with similar themes, even though they seem very different to the originals, and I can't put my finger on why.

Some interesting shots of TC9 here:

This is from when CBBC were using it for continuity.

Caught a bit of the Elections programme last night while waiting for the special Blue Peter.

Good idea so far. Was a bit worried when they went into " Weakest Link " speak about " only X of you will get through " but thankfully the elimination was not shown - you only got to see the people who got through to the next round being presented with envelopes.

Programmes like this would benefit from the 5 o'clock slot returning, no doubt!
