The Hochanda annoying barcode on the top edge of the screen was present, as well as the naff derivation of the Create and Craft logo.
I then wondered if the Ideal World stream was still going, if I used manual tuning on Sky. It was, but the apology slide has gone - it has been replaced by their logo, with "Ideal World HD" next to it. I hear that on Freeview, it just says Ideal World.
Firstly, I wonder why they've done this. Secondly, I wonder why they've decided to do these two separate slides, as I am not sure there was ever any difference between the SD and HD versions, barring the resolution of course.
Could it possibly be that the 'suspended broadcast' slide originated from Peterborough whereas the solo logo one is a backup inserted by their uplink provider or something in case of loss of feed?
