Why four and not three? Surely when you’re apps icon is three orange rectangles it would make sense to have three? Nit picking but it’s the silly little things like that which when looking at branding make the difference. Id see three and in my head go if they’ve thought of that they’ve thought of everything.
The other thing, I makes my head hurt that they don’t put the word radio on the podcast image as it just makes it look uneven. Also its name is bbc radio 4, not just bbc 4. I think I can see what the idea is. All radio stations are circles with the number in so let’s take the word radio away. Just looks odd IMHO
When there was buffering for me on iPlayer earlier, there was three squares on screen. So it possible for somewhere in the BBC to have that joined up thinking.
Agree with the radio naming on the programme images, I know it doesn't have the number in circle logo, but the word radio is included on some programme images for BBC Radio Wales, and that works okay I would say.
