None of the BBC's many in-house attempts to recreate the original Lambie-Nairn graphics have really matched their quality and detail - often ending up with a bit of a plasticky look. Even the newest ones used on set in Studio B, which are at the better end of attempts, fall short.

Not sure I am wary, but more curious.
The 2008 branding was designed at a time where 1080p and 25fps was the highest expectation for graphics - and when we talk about higher quality today - well there are massive expectations.
Do they have access to the source files used by Lambie-Nairn, and are just re-rendering?
How did the 2013 refresh work? Some shots show awkward framerate changes for instance.
World News moved to a distinctly more orange colour scheme.
You would think the cats cradle text would move to Reith this time.
Is this a recreation of the existing shots, or new titles using the same brand elements?
Is this done internally, if so are they the same ones responsible for Newsline, or Reporting Scotland?
What visual elements or textural treatments will be added to demonstrate this higher quality?
EDIT:
There are some subtle elements visible in print versions of the 2008 branding that don't always show up on TV - but is it enough?
