Read MoreDirected by design collective National Television through Not To Scale for 4Creative, the quite inspiring animated promo for Channel 4′s new, nightly game show The Bank Job, seems to draw its strong visual inspiration from classic title sequences by Saul Bass and Otto Preminger.
Disappointingly, the show’s title sequence does not draw on the promo and not much can be said for the content of the actual show, using a formula that has been standard in games shows for generations it is about as exciting as waiting for a bus.
