Does anyone have a link to the aforementioned "Spiky" ident that was shown on Saturdays at 9.25 into SMTV?
That's the ultimate nostalgia link for me, capturing the anticipation and energy of SMTV. IIRC, even the DOG was different from the one used during the week, copying the spiky look of the ident.
* Third set of idents: 1st September 1990 - 31st March 1991. 5 were
I think 6 were actually made. Just like the post above, a special Saturday morning ident was shown into Motormouth and Ghost Train. It made it more engaging and unique, you know you were in for a treat. The ident used to say "Children's ITV Presents". As far as I am aware, it is not shown in the compilation posted above.
* First set of idents: 3rd April - 22nd December. 6 were created.
* Second set of Idents: 2nd January - 31st August 1990. 4 were created.
* Third set of idents: 1st September 1990 - 31st March 1991. 5 were
* Genetic ITV ident from 4th September 1989
until Full length: Until 30th Jan 1993 or Short: 28 March 1991
I'm almost certain the short one lasted until August 31st, 1990.

I will keep an eye out, but it could have only have been used going to Motormouth, as Ghost train come back after the third set period. Ie Stonewall lost the contract.
Am I right in thinking there were two sets of the 1998 idents?
Something in the back of mind is saying they had ones for Pre-School when it started at 3.25pm and more lively ones starting roughly at 4pm for the remainder of the kids shows.
Yes Telly Tots was before Citv
Telly Tots didn't start until around 2000 (or possibly 1999) - the 1998 refresh definitely still saw Stephen and Danielle doing the pre-school links. To be honest, I get confused between the 1998 set and the 1999 set of idents, but there were definitely different idents for each 'strand' in the latter set, possibly the September 1998 set also.

The relaunch idents in May 1998 were the simple ones.
The ones that appear on the video collections posted earlier in the thread were the September 1998 tots and older idents that had white backgrounds.
In September 1999 the backgrounds became yellow for tots and light blue for older (although the main tots ident was also light blue but the break stings and studio sections were yellow).
I think I’m right in saying that Telly Tots launched September 2000 and lasted for around a year before they resorted to linking to tots programmes from the studio.
I don't remember Zig & Zag having a CITV show! God knows what Melissa Joan Hart made of all of that, and I wonder if Claudia Winkleman has that on her CV these days.

Yes the first bit would have more childish idents, and one presenter hosting, maybe sat down on cushions, after one or two shows, the other presenter would appear, and it would become more fast paced, with different idents and a proper introduction to the afternoon with a menu, competitions etc. Happened throughout the Stephen and Danielle era except for when they had the Telly Tots branding.

Did that bit come after they dropped Telly Tots? as I remember a tiny bit of the studio being in Yellow for the younger branded shows.
