Lets hope it turns up tomorrow the full version; If you do know duncan can you say Wink


The only possible way that the full ident could turn up tomorrow is if it is leaked early on the internet.

This happened with the Wallace and Gromit ident in 2008 (put on the web the day before it was first shown on BBC1) and again with the Dr Who xmas ident in 2009, I think that one was put on the BBC website's Dr Who Advent Calendar several days before it first aired on BBC1.

Seeing it early online just doesn't feel the same as viewing it on telly for the first time. We only have 6 days to wait now so let's just all be patient.

From what I've heard, it's going to be a good'un Smile

I am so glad I found this place. It's good to know I am not the only one to get excited at an ident.

If you'd said "the full version of the promo", it would have been clearer. Sorry that I misunderstood your comment.

Of course, the best idents in my opinion were 1998 - I said that last year and I still like them lots!

You're right. 1998's bauble was a simple idea, but beautifully executed. And easily reusable, even now...

I still like BBC Northern Ireland's answer to the underwhelming 2012 Curtains which has a similar theme

Even I had some fun with the bauble idea! just need some reindeer/deer to film

Well you've just beaten my effort down to the ground so hard it no longer makes a noise. Just wow.

And a clock too - goes to show how well it still works on screen Laughing

Really well done.

It seems the full promo was last seen on Saturday with the 40 sec version being used since then. The reason I wish to double check is Glasgow version have any other Glasgow xmas idents or has local programme clips added in like NI, for the main one min version.

Just noticed that ITV are using the same music from the 2012 showtime/curtain idents for the Royal Variety trailer.

I'm sure they used the same music for something on ITV at the time as well

Wasn't it for the Mr Selfridges trailer?
