That’s doubly good because you can use a Bulb to make a really good model of an octopus.

Re: TV Live Forum Watch News and Information Board

I think 'bobbins' is perfect to be honest. In 20 years, when the BBC updates the font again to 'Birt' or 'Dyke' there will doubtless be folks who question why they are changing from such a 'timeless font'. And as for ascribing subjective qualities such as 'gravitas' and 'class' - I'm sorry, but that...

Re: TV Live Forum Watch News and Information Board

I'm not registered on TVL and can't register at the moment, but just had to call this post out in the New BBC Logo thread: A little late here, but I find it astonishing that people can write things like (from the Cleanfeed article): The new blocks lack the class, gravitas and timeless quality of the...

Re: TV Forum Watch News and Information Board

I'd like to take this opportunity to say how much I love the new BBC One idents. In the sense that I'm hopeful that they have caused at least one person over on TVF to have an aneurysm. Perhaps a bit maudlin, but in reading through the sixty odd pages of pure unyielding OUTRAGE, I'm struck by the th...

Re: TV Forum Watch News and Information Board

I would have World News Today coming from Studio E as well, and Duh Nyooz Chanul (which should definitely take second fiddle to an International news channel viewed by hundreds of millions of people) should be kicked out of Studio E from 5-10:30pm. What utter utter cr*p. The BBC is British for Brit...

Re: Apple iPad

I just really can't fathom this one. It's not exactly going to be easy to carry around (it certainly wont fit in a pocket). In terms of a prolonged activity, like watching a film, short of a support staand, it's going to be reasonably uneasy to hold, I mean, do you prop it against something? Hold it...

Re: TV Forum Watch News and Information Board

I guess it's because Mark has worked with Katie for longer than with Julie that he appeared more at ease last night. Trevor, for example, always looked slightly more comfortable when presenting News at Ten with Mary Nightingale than he did with Julie, again perhaps because he's known Mary for longe...

Re: Pig Flu - the swines !

There's no way I can take this situation seriously until ITV News set up a Swine Flu Incident Room. Until then, absolutely nothing is wrong.

You weren't shocked really...be honest. Just another excuse for you to 'big up ITV'.

If people continue to start stupid threads, they will be suitably disposed of.
