Talking of Swan. Did no one spot the 5 second Swan sting at 5:15? Wink

Was it this one?

Does anyone know if BBC2 originally aired two different edits of Sub sting, or have NI simply shortened it from its original full length? The description of the sting, in the TV Room: http://thetvroom.com/bbc-uk/bbc-2-14-20.html (7th sting up, from bottom of page), says that the 2 sinks below the surface at the end, and this video (at 0:10) seems to confirm that:

It's really nice that you guys do stuff like this, I honestly don't know if the general public notice, but regardless the fact the effort is put in doesn't go unnoticed. Smile

Two different edits, which can run back to back to make the full sting if required.

If even just one person notices, smiles and makes them remember and associate good things with BBC2 then things like this will always be worth doing

in my completely unbiased THE POWER OF GOOD BRANDING! opinion.

No, didn't spot that. Hope it's shown again soon!


Bail posted:
Wow, never thought I'd see that again, very very cool, tell me there's a video, I recall this having a great who-ish soundtrack.





0:05 and 1:22 respectively, with a few other items left in for context.
