I’ve been trying to track down a very early-2000s VH1 or MTV UK ident that seems to have completely vanished.

What I remember:
\- A walking couple shown mostly from the waist down.
\- The man is wearing white trainers/sneakers.
\- The woman is wearing black heeled sandals with red-painted toenails.
\- At one point, another pair of female legs appears briefly, wearing black tights/nylons and high heels.
\- It had the typical stylish MTV/VH1 presentation from the early 2000s and would have aired between music videos.

I’ve searched YouTube compilations, ident archives, and various nostalgia sites, but I haven’t been able to find any trace of it.

Does anyone else remember this ident, or know which channel it was on? Even vague memories about when it aired, what music played, or which branding era it belonged to would be a huge help.

It’s starting to feel like lost media at this point!

I’ve always wondered this about Pingu Runs Away. After Pingu gets yelled at and runs off upset, why didn’t he just go straight to Grandpa’s house on his sledge?

In Pingu’s New Kite, when Mother and Father are too busy to help, Pingu and Pinga immediately decide to visit Grandpa because they know he’ll help them. They make it there without any problems and Grandpa happily helps them build a new kite.

So in Pingu Runs Away, it feels like Grandpa could have been the perfect place for Pingu to go when he felt unloved after the dinner incident. Instead, he wanders around at night, gets lost among the scary ice “monsters,” and ends up terrified in a cave until his parents find him.

I know the episode’s message is about Pingu realizing his parents still love him and his parents regretting how harshly they reacted. But from a practical point of view, going to Grandpa’s house seems like the obvious solution—especially since later episodes show that’s exactly what Pingu and Pinga do when they need help.

What do you think? Was Pingu simply too upset to think rationally, or do you think the writers hadn’t fully established Grandpa as Pingu’s go-to safe place?

I use to think Jimmy Hopkins was modeled after Eminem.

Funny Colonel Calloway moment from ‘Scooby-Doo and the Ghoul School’

The “Dirty Hands, I demand” part from Dannii Minogue’s ‘Put The Needle On It’ music video always turns me on 🥰🥰

I’ve always had a soft spot for Major Tom. Love the robot’s Union Jack paintwork and Bumper Car-like body shape. Plus its features like the head, bowler hat, crown and flags.

Razer’s time on Series 2, 3 and 4 were unfortunate. They suffered various mechanical problems in the heats and were eliminated prematurely.

My genuine NFS canvas paintings I did a few years ago.

Brian blowing his cover in front of Dom while trying to save Vince (Mia already knew) was a powerful scene in the original. The ending was equally poignant as Mia faced the difficult choice between Brian and Dom.

While watching The Inbetweeners Movie, I spotted Anthony Head (RIP) as Will’s Dad. He was a wonderful actor and an amazing dad to Emily, who played Carli.

The campsite was a terrible choice for Henry’s horrid and mindless parents for their holiday. They should have gone to Camp La Fun to start with.

Who remembers the 0800 Reverse adverts featuring Holly Valance in the mid-2000s?

The Mouse King really did comb through every page of every book in his library for the Sugar Plum Princess 📚😂

VCI - To me it was the gateway to Thomas The Tank Engine on VHS growing up.

Did anyone else think Pingu should have gone straight to Grandpa’s house in Pingu Runs Away?

Who's stupid idea was to make the toilet too high for Poor Pingu to reach in Pingu's Lavatory Story? When before and after, he could reach it perfectly.
