@busterboy6011 It was a sting called "Evolution"... think that explains itself. :)

@thepod96 Sorry my mistake. Didn't realise that it got repeated. Fascinating to see how the ident came into being and how some were made.

@tvlivevideo Exactly. I knew that it was broadcast in How Do They Do That? But this seems to be from an educational Learning Zone programme that used the clips from that as it is slightly different. (and cropped to widescreen)

@cylon6 which was broadcast recently on The Learning Zone, hence the BBC Two dog on-screen.
