Also, the logo looks very generic, like most ITV shows with a chunky font logo in the middle and a background that I bet is composed of sparkles that move or explode in time with the last note of the theme tune. Do they have a template they just drop some stuff into and 'bingo' an opening credit sequence?
I saw an episode of the show being filmed and it’s still the old theme tune, just VERY slightly remixed. I don’t think most would be able to tell the difference outside of us nerds on here. I think fans of the old DOND needn’t worry. Yes, it’s different to Noel’s version and has a different feel, but it stays very true to the core of the show so I don’t think people will be disappointed. I preferred the Noel version myself but Stephen is more than a capable pair of hands. The one thing I will say that I’m not a big fan of is that I think a lot of the contestants on the new version are more the types who just want to be on TV- there was a few of those on the original show too but it was more of a mixed bag.
