This is now the reason that I record my favourite programmes on the respective channel players the following day. i.e Ashes To Ashes & Dr. Who on iplayer and ITV's Net Player for their shows, why ?

Because there are no DOGS (digital on screen graphics) there are no announcers at the start or end and all the titles are clean and in full, just a tip !

[DoctorWhoDom]

@theprospecttavern Er... there are DOGs on the Iplayer at least. There's a "BBC" logo in the corner.

You would think that Simon would know that it's The 'Doctor's face', not 'Doctor Who's face'. That's almost as annoying as the cartoon Graham :D

[DoctorWhoDom]

@alsokatkim I think that's a bit unfair. Anyone would be nervous going live on a national radio station so slip-ups can happen.

Respond to this video... Oh and my keyboard is a little shoddy, hence the spelling mistakes.

[chavslayer666]

@chavslayer666 Also it's not the first tie Norton has ruined Doctor Who, Maybe it's Norton's fault?

[chavslayer666]

26/4/10 NEVAR FORGET! Seriously. Whichever vermin decided this was a good idea should be hung drawn and quartered, If it was a vaguely relevant show, if it was something that would even slightly appeal to the same audience then fair enough. But Lloyd webber's garbage!?!? no way. This is not the USA. This is Britain and we have the best public service broadcaster in the world. Let us never forget that and always reind the that as license payers WE dictate how they are run.

fuck u we didnt get it in wales

[filmnet]

@GallifreyFilms But this is not North America. I have seen the graphics and things the US channels have, and if I lived there, I wouldn't watch tv... I'd probably wait for the DVDs to come out and rent them instead. BBC1 doesn't have stuff like this everyday, and viewers pay a lot for the BBC, it doesn't have commercial adverts.

[angrydead]

An easy way of ensuring this sort of shit doesnt happen would be to organise some sort of movement where we automatically don't watch the following show if this comes on.

Of over the rainbow is shit and I wouldnt watch it regardless of how many you put it on.

[TheDoctorTL2]

@TiNYTiM6791 yep only on BBC One England

[Timelord114]

Its like on the episode rose, when the bitchole norton's voice like a leak on like the first scene of rose!!!! Then it spoke!! Anyone had a clip of that one??

[TopTellyFan]

@GallifreyFilms The reason it's big news is because this is the worst one to date. And if we were to put up with this, then it WOULD happen all the time. That is the whole point of the complaints. We have too many shitty logos because for too long not enough people have complained. Hopefully the fightback is starting.
