The BBC Chameleon Thread

On BT TV they’ve updated the channel icons, but not for BBC One HD or BBC News HD, the rest of the channels have been Reithed. I watch in internet mode, so whether they haven’t one ready for BBC One regional HD or News HD may simply be an oversight which doesn’t effect if you’re watching via Terrestrial.

Didn't know you could get BBC News HD on BT TV?

You can see BBC News HD on if you have the box on internet mode, all of the BBC channels are HD, including Parliament.

It is nice to see the BBC News logo there not squashed into a box and looking out of proportion. The 'NEWS' being the same width as the blocks seems odd, I would have imagined the logo should look the same as the others, smaller BBC blocks and bigger name underneath.

The service logos (iPlayer, Sounds, Sport, News, etc.) all use the smaller text size, which is the same as the BBC Scotland logo, it’s just coincidental that the width matches the blocks

A photo in Halifax tonight (at the premiere of Happy Valley) that is very worthy of this thread

“Guys, I know you wanted the three BBC blocks stacked on top of each other like they have at other BBC events, but I’m afraid our budget only stretches to 2 blocks”

Honestly willing to bet the Lambie-Nairn logo is still being used in some places when the Reith blocks' replacement are brought in. Just quite funny how absolutely bad they are at this.

Was it not always the plan that the two logos would coexist for sometime? The BBC Sport microphone muffs were a good example of not replacing things until they needed replacing.

I think the BBC Creative logo is a sign that a lot of this is deliberate.

Reith blocks' replacement? I thought the new blocks are going to stay on forever
