Seems like Digital Spy is not the only site regenerating today!

If there is to be a redesign then maybe it will address those issues of "too much going on".
I would have thought that customisation was a good thing .
how often do the BBC overhaul their website?

It's not a major change.
Difficult question to answer given there is more than one facet to the website. The BBC news site was launched in November 1997, had a redesign in 2003, and another in 2008. So every five and a half years or so. Not sure if the whatever change was made in the past few days (I can't see much of a difference) counts.
Better they spend our money making the site more user friendly than, say, overseas chauffer bills for execs.
i think its just the homepage that has been tweaked, not the actual news pages.

you might want to take that up with Slow Motion, who stated that they update their site more often than DS do.
although its only been four years since DS revamped this site.
sounds intriguing!

I like the new BBC Homepage, though it does remind be of PBS or some state broadcaster.
In terms of video walls, I do like the moving promo screen on thecw website.
But, the BBC's FIFA World Cup website currently looks slightly disappointing as it contains the old banner.
Well done, both.
It's all a bit ploddy for me, front page has gone very similar to Sky's style
(not sure if this will include all of the Sport area or not)
Quite like the look of the new site. Should be interesting to see it in the flesh.
Good work BBC.
Just news, not sport yet, think they wanted to get the world cup well out of the way first, before changing sport.
Full launch tomorrow morning.
Very clean to look at. Time to have a root about!
