Opening Credits for 2010
Ok, so perhaps you'll laugh and no doubt I'm lining myself up to be ripped to shreds - however I wondered if anyone knew if the Strictly makeover this year is to follow suit with DWTS by changing the title sequence.
Everything about the existing title sequence excites me and it's so very "Strictly" I would hate to see it go. I just noticed Australia followed suit too. Would be a shame to see the kaleidoscopic sequence vanish in this American revamp of Strictly. Discuss... |

I think it's unlikely. Australian tv is heavily Americanised to a greater degree that British tv, so I would imagine the credit change arose as a result of the American version being as well-watched if not more so than the Aussie version. Despite the show's following on Watch, I don't think we have the same relationship to the US show over here.
Also we'd never do it as well as Louis van Amstel doing the splits on top of a sky-scraper with a tooth "ting". |

Too true.

Is it wrong that I want to see that?

I imagine, what with the new logo and colour scheme, that there will propbably be some alteration to our opening titles tonight. I know we didn't see the titles at the launch show, but what titles we did have (lights going on in the podium, the black curtain falling from the glitterball) seemed quite high-tech and expensive to just be a temporary set of titles.
I could be wrong and the titles couild be the same/simlar to previous years but following a navy/silver/gold colour scheme rather than the pink and purple scheme of previous years, but I'm kind of hoping they're not - with the tweaks/refreshes/revamps so far this year, changing the titles seems like a natural extension of the adjustments to the show so far. (Although I also hope it's not the dancing-atop-a-skyscraper style titles of the US and Australia either - they work for those countries, but they don't really 'feel' right for the UK version) |

They look fine, although having just watched some of what I think of the Aussie ones on youtube I have to say I do wish they'd acknowledge the pros names in them as well.
