If it had been a totally new and dissimilar design from its predecessor, as was the case in 1997, then I'm sure that something more like the quick blanket rollout we saw back then would have also happened this time round.

If anything the design being similar means it should have been even more of a priority to replace it across the board ASAP to justify the change. Continuing to use the old version so widely 18 months on only plays into the hands of the "why spend millions on a new logo that's the same?" brigade.

That’s very true, especially when the children’s channels, Parliament and Weather (on screen) are still using the old logo. Maybe they should have changed the logo for something completely different.

There seems to be a lot of complaining about it here (and on Clean Feed's Twitter) and then a sudden and highly coincidental update of the branding.

Eurovisioncast? What a clunky name.
You can have Eurocast or Eurovision Podcast, but putting two suffixes on just sounds messy.
