Don’t think a thread has been made yet for the graphics used between the turn of the millennium and the Sydney Olympics (AFAIK the coloured men ID first aired at 6.30pm on 15/9/2000 in Sydney at least - so probably when the 2000-02 graphics launched), so here goes!
Thanks to @Zampakid and the YouTube video uploads of Steve Rutherford for many of the caps you see here to compliment those from the SydneyCityTV collection.
Caps of the Idents, Lineups & other elements from this era to come later.
back in February all the way to September, 7 trailed by 9 during the ratings period. In September, Channel 9 was hit extremely hard by Channel Seven due to the Olympic Games in Sydney. This saw channel 7 score extremely high ratings and a record prime time share. Seven won the ratings year in 2000.
This has been mentioned before, but I’ve always been amazed at how well done these were for something on air for about five seconds. Especially when you consider that they seemed to have multiple for almost every program.
The way that they inserted the ‘five colours’ into most of them makes them so good.
