Absolutely. It's always been a pet peeve of mine when networks screw with credits. Creative control of a show's credits should be left up to the people who make the show, not mandated by restrictions of the network. I find this whole thing ridiculous and outrageous.

Sorry, Ronn, but it already is happening, effective 1 June. This is already going into effect. Our only hope is to try and reverse it which is why we need people to sign the petition. Thanks for your signature.

EDIT: I encourage people to actually take note of the ridiculous restrictions they're imposing. Essentially, every credit sequence from now on will be squashed to one-fifth of the screen so that BBC advertisements and show schedules can use the remaining space. Additionally, credit sequences can't be longer than 30 seconds, and the styling of the credits themselves will be strictly controlled. I'm very disappointed about all of this!
