I think the 2012 ident is many people's least favourite. For me, it was the simplicity of it that I liked - the sparkly effects on the curtain were quite nice. However, I agree the music let it down. Not my least favourite though. As I said, the 1978 Spinning Santa Head was hideous and I thought the 1986 animated tree, star and marching holly was incredibly tacky.

Me too ...simple yet very original with the themed trees. Hope we get good ones this year. Im sure they hv reused some before. Children bouncing on xmas pudds? Was that used twice? Or the one where people in the street roll up a huge snowball?

Yeah, I like last year's too. I wouldn't be disappointed if they re-used them this year - after all they're still relevant.

Lol! No worries, I thought my computer was having a funny five minutes. I was never overly impressed with the 1991 ident, nor the presentation. It seemed so inferior to the year before. Liked 1992 though.

Slightly off ident topic, always loved the M&S 'Christmas Cracker' ad too. Great use of celebs and music

Why can't they do a Christmas special of The Apprentice?

Given the amount of Christmas merchandise out there, there's so many possibilities for tasks they could do. It makes so much sense. Have two teams of celebrities or past Apprentice contestants to come up with a design for a new Christmas decoration.

I would like to see a GBBO edition with celebs going through their paces like in the summer. And Car Share. Want to see how Peter Kay's character gets the store ready for Christmas

I hope the Sherlock special is a Christmas one. Doctor Who and Sherlock on on the same night (Christmas Day) would be brilliant.

I agree. The Christmas team was mentioned all through the series so it would be a waste if it wasn't shown!

Not big enough to go on Christmas Day IMO, but maybe Christmas Eve?

I'd be very surprised if The Brittas Empire gets recorded in time for this Christmas with Chris Barrie's commitment to recording Red Dwarf this year but we'll see.

On a different note The Pointless Celebrities Christmas Special was filmed today for BBC1.
