BBC Scotland - the launch

[/quote]
Will it be live like the announcements tonight or prerecorded?[/quote]

It will be live. And the announcements will always be live.

Checking out twitter, IT has no middle ground

Condescending, embarrassing and dated beyond belief. Disappointed, but not surprised. So much genuine talent in Scotland and we get...THIS #BBCScotland

Is this the *really* the best they could do for the opening show? How fucken cringe worthy but not unexpected. Apparently there's only one accent in Scotland - Glaswegian 🙄#bbcscotland #nightatthetheatre #LaunchNight

Great to hear. Pass on my congratulations and best wishes to the team if/when you are with them! I'm not Scottish but it is truly amazing!

Love the idents. Remind me a little of the old BBC HD ones.

How many idents is there?

Good call - thought they looked familiar

They're simple and that's why they work - one simple premise which can work across multiple scenarios. Also do like the logo and think if they're going with it they need to go with it and ditch the old one, even if productions and the channel are considered seperate entities.

I'm watching people clingfilm a bed on BBC Scotland. Woah.

We might even be able to win Eurovision with that.

Here is that Next slide


The other ident IN HD

Why is so much of the Scottish media concentrated on Glasgow rather than the capital Edinburgh? Just that Glasgow has a slightly larger population or is there more to it?

6 at the moment. More on the way.
