Mark Chapman opens up BBC2 with the new look on Saturday 4th October 1997 

Wow! THE Mark Chapman, now on BBC Radio 5 Live!

God damn this should be in a museum.

25 years ago today the iconic blocks appeared!

Iconic BBC open with an MGM movie to start the day.

I would love to see Mark Chapman return to the continuity team in the future at some stage!!!

Just noticed its Mark Chapman who does sometimes Match Of The Day 2

how ironic that Mark Chapman who now presents highlights of Sunday's Premier League matches on MOTD2, was the announcer of BBC2's new look with the new BBC logo that time!! :D Those were the days, I'm not sure even Mark himself had known about this archive.

Saturday 4th October 1997

25 years on...

Chappers is his nickname and wasn't he a presenter for Radio 1's Newsbeat. He was with Scott Mills correct?

What about the first BBC2 closedown with the 1997 rebrand?
