It’s 1973 again
The BBC went all out earlier this week with Life on Mars’ second and final season. Before the programme started, the TV ident changed back to 1973’s, with the BBC 1 Colour wording (before that geometric monstrosity that came in 1974). Both are below. It ties in beautifully to earlier promos (above) that had the 1973 style. (BBC Wales did a similar treatment, though with the different aspect ratio of televisions, they are re-creations. In addition, Arial, which the Welsh one is set in, was not designed in 1973.)
The BBC logo itself lacks a little verisimilitude—the designer seems to have just used Neue Helvetica and slanted it a tad more—but on the lower resolutions of TV screens, few would have really noticed.
And just to show that humour has not deserted the British, try this Camberwick Green one for size.
