Whilst googling to find out why I have to miss half of the England Scotland game because the ITVX app doesn't allow you to pause, I found this gem from the advertising agency that came up with adding an X to ITV:

"In a world full of plusses, be an X.

“Plus” has become an industry standard for streaming services. In that sea of sameness, DixonBaxi saw an opportunity to imbue a new symbol – X – with meaning. A plus sign rotated 45 degrees, X is a powerful visual metaphor for seeing the world differently. It is also a multiplying force and a point of connection that spotlights partnerships and amplifies characters and content. It’s an apt symbol for what will be the largest collection of content ITV has ever made, spanning a vast range of stories across every genre."

The Existential Crisis Duck “Just Your Everyday Duck Having An Existential Crisis It was, in all regards, an average day in Duck’s average life when he suddenly asked himself "Who am I?”. Since then, he’s been thinking a lot about the meaning of life, wondering if there is something more for a duck than just quacking...” It’s a wireless lamp in the shape of a duck lying on its side 🤷‍♀️ existentialcrisisduck.com
