London Transport did some craaaazy things to its roundel over the years.

Today’s quick mess-around. TV’s Lance Percival (I always loved it when the newspapers described someone as ‘TV’s’… as if otherwise you’d confuse ‘TV’s Bruce Forsyth’ with the Bruce Forsyth from down your road). #sketch #truegrittexturesupply #tv #lightentertainment #lancepercival #comedy #comedian #twtwtw #davidfrost #advertising #newspapers #60s #70s #vintage #yesteryear #bbc #art #poster

A still from ‘Laurel & Hardy: Brutal Law Enforcement’. They made a pilot, but it never went to series. Too edgy, too relentlessly realistic for the studio apparently. #laurelandhardy #tv #copshow #tvshow #buddymovie #tvproduction #pilot #tvpilot #series #tvseries #vintage #vintagephotography #sepia #sepiatone #stanlaurel #oliverhardy #stanandollie #realism #realistic #notreally #thisneverhappened

Among the many things to enjoy (if that’s he right word) about the HBO/Sky series ‘Chernobyl’ is the font used for the title cards. Apparently it’s a bespoke rendering of an old Soviet font known as Zhurnalnaya roublennaya. Created by the director Johan Renck (and his brother). Renck is a prolific pop video director (incl. Bowie’s ‘Blackstar’) though you may also remember him as Stakka Bo out of the nineties, yo. #chernobyl #hbo #skyatlantic #miniseries #tv #tvseries #font #sovietunion #typography #titlecard #type #stakkabo #johanrenck #futura
