Oh dear, that graphic wasn’t produced in PowerPoint at all, right?!

At least it has the correct logo on it.

Enjoying the crediting of an image of a BBC News Scotland WhatsApp channel promo to Reuters...

The 'BBC News Scotland' logo, with 'Scotland' smaller than 'News' is particularly bad - the BBC Sport Scotland one is similar. Is there a logic behind it?

Can't answer your question, but I'm a little intrigued by the "www.bbc.co.uk/scotland/news" URL being used (complete with www) as Reporting Scotland always used to refer to "bbc.co.uk/scotlandnews" on-air and in their graphics. I can't recall seeing that recently either though.

I'm sure someone mentioned a rule once that the BBC weren't supposed to promote websites any deeper than one / after the top-level domain, which is why all the cooking programmes etc. eventually became /food, and contestants for shows had to go to /takepart rather than a show website.

In other news, I was asked to do a survey today about BBC Maestro (the e-learning platform from BBC Studios). The survey used the graphic below, but I notice the live website still uses an old version of the BBC logo...

The brand new series of Rebus, fresh for BBC1 in 2024 after moving from ITV in the noughties, uses the old Gill Sans 1997 BBC logo.

Not bad. At least the new logo is still being used.

They seem much more on the ball with branding at BBC Radio than on the television side.

They have done that a while ago.
