Comments on: That was the decade we watched http://www.offthetelly.co.uk/?p=7832 Contemporary and classic British TV Wed, 24 Feb 2010 13:09:53 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.2 By: Glenn Aylett http://www.offthetelly.co.uk/?p=7832&cpage=1#comment-3764 Glenn Aylett Sat, 09 Jan 2010 16:53:49 +0000 http://www.offthetelly.co.uk/?p=7832#comment-3764 How about some of the idents from the last decade? The BBC One makeover in 2002 sticks in the mind with disabled basketball players, teenagers at a rave( ten years after the rave scene died out) and best of all, the acrobats. Also those strange ITV 1 idents from 2005 are worth a mention on weirdness grounds: people hugging a tree while some ghostly music played. No one could ever work that one out. ( An uncharitable friend did add that ITV1 was so bad hugging a tree was a better alternative to their shows).

Not to mention Spooks after the Sky News debacle. These things always slightly annoy me because they always get the branding wrong. The font is the wrong size, or the red is the wrong colour or there isn’t any scrolling text. Or Carrie Gracie is working at the wrong time of day. Also if Hew “Not You Too Bob” Edwards is working the 2012 Olympics and they don’t play a clip from Fear Her, he will have got off lightly.
