The Hall – Showtime ident

The BBC One 'Lens' idents are a set of on-screen channel identities used on BBC One; soft launched with the channel's Christmas presentation in December 2021, and officially launched on from 1 April 2022, replacing the 'Oneness' idents.[1] The identity was developed by BBC Creative and branding agency ManvsMachine.[2] They were introduced at 7pm, leading into The One Show. This is the first time BBC One launched the new idents in the evening since launch of Noddy ident on 1963 and Computer Originated World (COW) ident on 18 February 1985.

ManvsMachine said the idents are designed to capture "British life through multiple lenses".[2]

Components of look

Each ident features a large community space, being utilised for a variety of different purposes. The idents present these spaces by slowly rotating around the image, with a circular, lens, effect showing parts of the space being used for different events, during different times of day, and in different configurations. There are three ident variants for each location.

These idents pay homages to various idents that have been shown on BBC One over the years, from the famous globe symbol that had been used since the 1960s, the 1997 Balloon idents and the 2006 Circle idents.[3] The music of the idents were produced by Resonate, a sound design agency in London.

These idents were originally due to be launched in October 2021 alongside the introduction of the new BBC logo, but the launch was delayed to April 2022; the remainder of the presentation package associated with the idents was launched with the new logo, but the channel continued to use a repackaged version of the existing 'Oneness' idents until 1 April 2022.[4]

Christmas idents

Title Air dates Description
Shaun the Sheep: The Flight Before Christmas 4 – 31 December 2021 A set of idents themed around the Aardman Animations franchise Shaun the Sheep, promoting its new Christmas special. It consisted of three scenes panning around a Christmas tree being assembled by the sheep; the daytime version showing the tree being pulled up, but falling on one sheep's head due to the appearance of the farmer. Another is set during the evening, with the tree being dressed and pumped by Timmy on a bicycle. The last version is set at night, with the lights being turned on and the sheep bleating "Jingle Bells". Each ident also features a variation without the characters used to introduce news and other serious programmes.

Likely under the presumption that they would launch as originally scheduled in October 2021, the idents contain elements of the "Lens" idents, such as a rotating scene and multiple variations in the same location at different times of the day. The idents were used from the evening of 4 December 2021, through BBC One's New Year's Eve special on 31 December 2021, after which the repackaged Oneness idents were reinstated.
