Dullest, and worst use of Reith yet for a logo IMO

From our very own Media Boy, looks like the News Channel Countdowns are getting Reithed on Monday morning.

Chris Cook just tweeted a Reith Countdown menu image. Several countdown options.

Roll on 15th!

I'm excited beyond words.

I see this thread is to close on Monday. I agree with Asa’s decision as it’ll keep all the discussion on Monday to one place, but I think we’ll still need a Reith thread here to talk about non-News instances?

I'd be quite pleased if they lose the naff outer glow on the numbers.

The question is, will the countdown numbders be Reith Serf, Reith Sans, italic?

Like the look of these headlines - they’re different from the ones we’d seen on the one minute news bulletins, and use the red lines which I think a lot of us had been expecting.

Augers well for some decent graphics come Monday. 🤞🏼

He posted a similar image the other day. Same options, slightly different looking player

Overly long headline straps will shrink to fit - this looks bad and should be avoided


The system should just have a max size and stop this happening so all text is the same size.
