Default BBC1 HD DOG-less?

Just noticed this morning that the DOG seems to have disappeared from
BBC1 HD (Freesat). Is this connected to the final analogue switchoff, I
wonder?

It'll be a mishtake, the BBC branding jizzwnaks must be asleep at present.

Enjoy it while it's absent.

Same on Freeview BBC1 HD last night. Let's hope it lasts.

It's so all your friends can see you have an HD telly when they pop 'round.

They can see from the quality of the picture. All my friends are
highly discerning :-)

I hate dogs they are so distracting!

The Channel providers seem to think we need reminding what channel we are
watching!

If they are for that reason, why are they not used in commercial breaks, is
it because those paying for the adverts do not want them either?

Hi Davey,
Yes I realise that but the BBC do have their own adverts for
programmes though, and the other freeview HD channels do have adverts!
