The UKtv colour, People, Mums, and Documentary are the right colours, and the others are based on the existing colours for the channels.

I will be updating them once the channels launch, and we put content on The TV Room.

I gave up looking for the font, and made it myself, so the logos are precise.

I do hope the announcers don't insist on always referring to the channels by their full name. It would be much better, IMO, for them to be referred to by only "G2", "Style", "Gold" etc, rather than "UKTVG2" which is more than a bit of a mouthful.

I wonder what's going to happen with the DOGs - if they are where they are now, it might be quite distracting especially with some of the longer names like "DOCUMENTARY" floating underneath the UKtv logo. But then, since when have UKTV been bothered about screen-clutter... Wink

And what part of UK BrightIdeas is yellow now?? The only colour I personally associate with UKBI is red as that little logo is red. Or are you on about that Yellow ident on UKBI?
BTW just to check, is it officially called BrightIdeas or is it really Bright Ideas? It’s just on the Sky EPG it has a space where as on DTT it does not. Well the dog has no space but will the name change and get a space with the new look?

Also with only People, G2, BI & Drama being the only channels not to have a +1, I wonder which one will get it next? The only one I can see is People as the others would be pointless, and G2 has no room next to it on Sky so the +1 channel would be elsewhere. Oh and why did they stupidly called Style's channel + and not +1. Makes no sense to me.

Also nothing on air has ben said about Horizons going has it? Some might think by the current Dog that 2 more channels are coming. The BBC Promos were clear that Choice was going before THREE arrived.

Bright Ideas is indeed 2 words, also I chose the yellow because the 3 other colours in the idents had been taken by other channels.

as soon as I know the official colours, I will hopefully be able to update the colours, and put the logos online at Mock Resources.

Are all the UKTV channels getting a new look, or are they just going to stick 'uktv ...' on the current idents. If they do relaunch, I hope that UK Gold (sorry, UKtv Gold) gets back a gold bar theme, along the lines of the excellent 1994 look.

Was looking at the Sky EPG earlier and its just Monday that UKTV Documentary starts at 6pm. As of Tuesday onwards its like UK Horizons and is on air from 9am - 3am. Anyone know the hours for UKTV People. Are the opening night hours just for its first evening like UKTV Doc or are they the full time hours for this channel? As for UKTV People EPG Number, its got to be in the 500's right as the Horizons dog says '2 factual channels'.

I think UKTV Documentary will be a disappointing channel. It has a number of programmes which are already on UKTV History. For me I think I will just watch UKTVPeople.

Thanks for that, I now have a fair idea on the official colours, so I can amend my list.
