  • The ITV Network: Part 13 - Anglia (Anglia Television)
    Our journey through the ITV Network continues here on the Ident Review Extra! This time around, we're travelling to the East of England, to take a look at a franchise that launched in the late 1950's, but managed to create a visual identity that lasted for nearly 40 years! Taking a look at that success and idents beyond, we're paying a visit, to Anglia Television!
    The Ident Review Extra began in the April of 2020 and covered all of the idents seen on BBC2 during the 1990's and early 2000's. After a Christmas run in December, the series has had a long rest. But now it's back, taking a trip through all the different regions of the ITV Network!

    The Anglia Knight was a classic, the 'A' logo was designed by Martin Lambie Nairn, the man who designed the BBC Two idents and the Channel 4 logo among many others, and he sadly passed away at the end of last year.

  • @JASpiring
    @JASpiring 2 роки тому +5

    Anglia didn't actually use the 1989 generic ident. I think there's two reasons. One, was that their existing ident was only a year old, and the other reason is that the blue and yellow triangles are the wrong way around!

    Two questions, firstly, who is/ was the knight and how could they sack him off, that is such a striking motif

    • @Jessica_Kirk
      @Jessica_Kirk 10 місяців тому

      1, The knight was a trophy commissioned by William III of the Netherlands in 1850 for the Falcon Club, which was a society that met once a year to compete in horse races, falconry and other sports. It was modelled off a statue of Richard I, but was intended to represent "The Black Knight."
      And second, by the 80s, the logo had basically been sticking out like a sore thumb, due to everyone else using CGI and the whole "flying through space" gimmick, so they got Martin-Lambie-Nairn himself to make a new ident for them, to which he charged Anglia £500,000. And that's 1988 money.
      Does that answer your questions?

  • @CulturePhilter

    I remover having films my parents had recorded off the Telly in the late 80s with the knight and I really remember the triangles in the flag one from my own childhood. 🙂

  • @EuropaSman

    Iirc Lord David Dundas wrote the sting for the 1988 Anglia ident.
    I grew up in the Anglia region during its colour heyday from the early 1970s to late 1990s. We got an "Anglia Presents" caption board rather than the film ident that the rest of the country got before Anglua produced programmes like Survival, Tales Of The Unexpected, Sale Of The Century, Bygones, etc. I also remember the in vision continuity announcements. Very different from the BBC 1 mirror globe; just an announcer at a desk with a curtain behind, no station logo or anything. That ceased when the flag ident came in with the exception of night time Anglia with the likes of Paul Lavers, who incidentally I last saw on TV in a Haribo advert a few years back.
    I'm glad Anglia didn't adopt the 1989 generic ITV ident! Shame it was the beginning of the end with the hearts ident.

    I don’t know if it is true or not not but I remember hearing that the knight was owned before the channel went on air by one of the directors of the company, who suggested using it as an ident. It was modded to hold an Anglia flag and filmed.

    • @plonchyvideos7456
      @plonchyvideos7456 Рік тому +1

      I read that two of the directors of the company were in Bond Street (Old or New, I can't remember) in London, saw it for sale in a shop and thought it would make a good company logo.
      I believe it's now in a museum in the Anglia region.

    • @EuropaSman
      @EuropaSman Рік тому

      The Anglia Knight was originally a falconry trophy bought by the then chairman of Anglia from the jewellers Asprey in Bond Street, London. Aspley added the Anglia pennon to the lance, and the rest is history as they say.
      The Anglia Knight was displayed in Norwich Library a few years back as well at Bridewell museum in Norwich, but I believe it has now been returned to Anglia House. I think Anglia House is the only surviving original ITV regional HQ, and includes the 1959 era Anglia Television signage - look on Google Earth.

    Slight arithmetical error. 1959 to 1988 is only 29 years, not "nearly 40". Interesting though, and yes, it's a long time to use the same ident.
