Totally agree. George’s delivery also makes it even better.

Talking the clam shells and with the local elections coming up, did I imagine this or did the 2003(?) titles add the vote logo in them during the build up to the election. I seemed to remember it appear in the “explosion”’part after red rings.

Yes, they did that for the 2005 election build up.

I am in agreement with you on the BBC North West Today / Tonight titles in 2007/08. Fantastic set of short lived titles that were produced to a high standard of quality. For me it had a good template that could have easily been duplicated to other regions. Also with the locations scrolling along the bottom and - as you put it - data streams being featured travelling the region. It had tons going for it.
One slight minor detractor with these titles was the whole "Live News / Local News / Your News" tagline thing at the bottom. But as I see it now looking back from 2023. It was of the era when taglines for news programmes were en vogue.
As I type thing and consider what to add. I wonder if with the locations used. Manchester, Laxey, Blackpool, Liverpool & Buxton would have been rotated with other towns and cities in the region if the titles had gone the distance.

And for illustrative purposes, here is the set from three years before (with a slightly different desk) - the WNT set was where the flash of green is in the background:

Whenever you see behind-the-scenes pictures of that studio, it is just incredible the amount they managed to fit in there - absolutely tiny space that managed to make N8 look expansive. Always a bit surprising to be reminded of how stark the difference is between the facilities they had then and now.

It was used for elections and other specials.

Here is a link to a nice 360 degree picture on flickr by Nick Garrod at the time TVC was closing in 2013.
