Heh, my European geography is probably a tad sharper than yours! And yes, Wikipedia often helps out as well (though not everything on Wiki should be taken literally given it’s user-submitted platform and the errors it contains).

Hi Daniel

How I meant by ‘un-christmassy’ was the jingle that went along with it, usually in christmas idents there is some element of christmas [eg: jingle bells]. Thats why I wasn’t really feeling it. But other than that it looks fine.

Hi all,

Thanks for posting the idents John, and thanks for the comments so far!

To Andy: Actually we wanted to give christmas a new approach and avoid the tacky and clichéed approach often seen at television channels – TV 2 has one of the cleanest and most minimal presentation designs I have ever seen, and obviously it should go hand in hand with that.

In my opinion the music gives a crystal-snowy-kind of feel and the crystal ornaments adds a sense of christmas decorations – Am I way off?

- Daniel

Clean, but these idents feel un-christmassy.

The Holland thing is sort of like the way Americans refer to the whole of the UK as England *scowl*. Also, it was me who pointed out that Norway isn’t in the EU. Go me!

These idents are muy bien! (that’s Spanish for very good, John )

Another interesting fact that even some people in the UK don’t realise: Northern Ireland is not part of Britain, it’s part of the UK… but not Britain. Yeah, stick that into the Wikipedia search engine!

The name Holland actually only accounts for a portion of The Netherlands. To be absolutely correct and to not insult the dutch in the part that isn’t Holland (and they do get insulted on this issue), you should say The Netherlands.
