The new season of Little Britain started last Thursday and instead of its usual debut on BBC Three it got the big seal of approval with a BBC One premiere. To celebrate Red Bee (formerly BBC Broadcast before Australia’s Macquarie Bank bought it) got Tom Baker to be the continuity announcer for the night. The script for the evenings idents were written by Matt Lucas and David Walliams.
I think its brilliant that they went to the trouble to do something different, they draw attention to the idents, and I just love how ingrained idents and continuity announcments seem to be in British pop culture.
Do the boom shack a lack.

They are FANTASTIC!!!
…but John, the Quicktime downloads don’t seem to be working…when I try to open them after downloading, they just say ‘error’
…computer says no!
Tom Baker makes me PMSL, I love how he didn’t mind going through all that trouble to record those. 😀
I love the BBC dancing idents…though…I miss the clock…it was almost a british tradition to see the clock before the news…i hope that for the new idents, they’ll bring back the clock…
