Yes, and to clarify why I said 3rd or 4th January - 3rd January is a bank holiday in Scotland this year (they always have two days holiday for New Year). No reason why BBC One Scotland couldn’t run their festive idents for an extra day independently of Network.
I take on board the suggestion that some new series launch on NYD, but if that’s the reason there’s still no need to switch back straight after midnight, as programmes like the Eurovision Party are still seasonal offerings. Why not wait until the next morning?
