I’d have thought the opposite would be true and they would have been more noticed due to Christmas in lockdown? Without parties, socials, pubs, everyone was at home watching more linear TV.

As for this rumour, I see nothing wrong with repeating previous Christmas idents per se - but I do find it strange if they’re repeating such specific ones. Generic Christmas themed is one thing, but idents promo-ing one of that year’s big premieres feels dated.

Agree, especially as the new Julia Donaldson feature looks to be in a different style.   If it was a sequel I could understand, or just using the generic tree versions with accompanying new idents featuring the characters relevant to this year.

Still baffles me when filming three scenes for the Lens set they didn't add a fourth Christmas one.  I think then having a basic set with the possibility of adding something more programme specific each year could have worked well.
