New Opening Titles this year?

For the love of God let them have been changed. That and a load more of the production values.

High hopes given the new bumper... but maybe they think it's "classic"

yeah I think they should remain the same upto the live shows but there should be like photoshots of the acts for the opening credits in the live shows in a similar way to I'm a celeb and strictly

I think the intro should remain. It's still looks really good.

It's dated as hell and is a mental association with a declining and stagnant programme.

Refresh it.

I never understood why they never used the new bed. It sounded great on the XF USA.

All signs point towards new titles being introduced this series.
About time.

In the past when they've done new opening titles (2006 and 2011) they've launched them on the first live show rather than at the start of the series. I'd rather they did it at the start though (they did for BGT in 2011) and I hope they do it.

It's symptomatic of a wider issue with stagnation not the core issue - and you know that I'm not insinuating that

I favour no opening titles until the live and just a sting (the new one launched this year) for auditions. With live shows, a new sequence. Same music but maybe new arrangement.

Would really freshen the show up.

As in the start of this video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UhiB0fyoKMc ?
I too hope there is a full sequence, it helps build hype for the show for me.

I hope they do it like the 2004-2006 credits it seems the show is going back to that era.

judging by the logo it would be a safe bet that if there is indeed a new intro it will be a modernised version of that intro.

New titles have debuted tonight, the globes are gone and the intro mainly takes inside the X.
