There's the fashion for coloured abstract backgrounds that gradually move; fairly calming, I suppose.
However, when something is shown almost full screen, but little strips of these backgrounds remains round the edge, their movement can be
distracting, as it's not immediately obvious what they are - there's one (orange, IIRR - can't remember which prog.) that, when only a narrow strip
is shown, sometimes looks like a progress bar, until you realise it isn't.
The latest is the new Breakfast one, with the big blue circle. I quite
like it in some places. But this morning for the weather forecasts, at
least 6:45 and 7:15, for some reason the weather map was shown only partly filling the screen (maybe they want to show off their nice studio with the big screen with a platform in front of it that the forecaster is standing on); this meant that the sides of the map had the new background, and the
big blue circle hove into and out of view at times, which was rather distracting to the actual forecast.

The first banjo solo I played was actually just a series of mistakes. In
fact
it was all the mistakes I knew at the time. - Tim Dowling, RT2015/6/20-26
