BBC Pulls Xmas Station Idents

[Louloubelle]

I 've never seen this

I feel I've missed out

I don't suppose anyone's got a link to a video of it?

It's nasty enough as a still image.

Cool as fuck in a sort of Pink Floyd does BBC kinda way.

It gave me the creeps. I really disliked it. I thought I was the only one. I wasn't aware so many people felt so strongly that they actually complained though. I always just thought: Yeurgh! and shivered.

I didn't like the advert for teacher recruitment either, the one where they were all headless bodies. That gave me the creeps too.

I agree and ironically more inappropriate than ever now that teaching is about "delivering the curriculum" and is completely prescribed in content, style and method of delivery. The idea that teaching is a job where you use your head is less true than ever.

As for the video in the original topic it is very clever but hideous. Thanks pk for finding it though.

Both members of our household hated it. We'd actually switch channels to get away from it. I imagine that's what demonic possession feels like.

I didn't think it was too bad. Probably the biggest problem with it is that the composite face doesn't have any eyes, which makes it seem a bit inhuman. That's probably why many people didn't like it on a gut level...

I'm glad they're gone as those heads really freaked me out. I changed channels whenever they were on.

Saw the reports of the Governors' decision and thought "whoa, they've decided they need to protect the paranoid stoner viewership from their nightmares".

Still haven't managed to see it, but looks from this thread as though they know their audience

I cant see the problem, quite inventive if you ask me.
