BBC One 2021-Present

On October 20th 2021, the majority of the BBC's adult domestic channels underwent a refresh to bring in an updated BBC blocks logo, with placement designed to be consistent across channels to allow for a smoother flow. BBC One received new stings and promos from this date, however an originally planned set of new idents were delayed at the 11th hour with the existing 'Oneness' idents instead being re-edited as an interim measure.

BBC One (Sting) - October 2021

From October 2021, although the idents had a stay of execution, the accompanying oneness stings or blips were all dropped. In their place were a series of very similar graphical efforts, with hints of circles present. These would often be attached to trailers, but sometimes appeared by itself in junctions too.

BBC One (Promo) - October 2021

An example of the updated promo style for BBC One, in use from October 20th 2021. Now the BBC blocks are designed to animate on and off at a consistent location to allow for smoother flow between trailers, with an additional 'sting' or 'blip' for the channel appended to the promo.

With iPlayer being an increasingly important outlet for the BBC over their traditional broadcast channels, a trailer with the refreshed branding for the online service was one of the first things to air in the 6am BBC One junction on Octobe 20th.


BBC One (HD Holding Slide) - October 2021

Though it had by now been announced (and even began tentative rollout on some platforms) that regional BBC One HD would be coming, it wasn't in place for the October 2021 refresh. As such the previous slide for filling regional slots on the HD channel which was made up of shots of the idents was replaced with a new and much simpler graphical creation.


BBC One (Sausage Dog Walkers) - October 2021

Although initially new idents were being worked on for the October 20th corporation-wide BBC rebrand, at a very late stage they were deemed unready and re-edits of the existing idents were made instead removing the 'Oneness' tagline. The first ident of the refreshed look was an updated version of the Dog Walkers at 6am. As a preview of what would be the case for some time to come, immediately after the first new logo-ident we were into the old-logo for Breakfast.

After only 5 days on air the stings (or blip) were updated, adding on the obligatory crude 'Channel of the Year' text due to a broadcast award win that week.
