Eén focuses on drama, entertainment, news and current affairs in a similar vein to BBC One in the United Kingdom. The station was formerly known as VRT TV1 until the current Eén branding was launched as part of a major station revamp on 21 January 2005, with a look created by BBC Broadcast.[2]

Eén is the equivalent of its French-language counterpart, La Une, the first channel of the Belgian Francophone broadcaster, RTBF.

On-screen presentation

Continuity

With its sister channel Ketnet, Eén was one of 21 stations in Europe to utilise in-vision continuity presentation. Four regular staff announcers (as of January 2014) were presenting in-vision and out-of-vision links from lunchtime until around midnight or in the early hours (if necessary) each day.

The last team of announcers was composed of:

  • Andrea Croonenberghs (senior announcer)
  • Geena Lisa Peeters
  • Eva Daeleman
  • Saartje Vandendriessche

The in-vision presentation was ditched on 26 July 2015.[3] Since that day, it is replaced by out-of-vision continuity.

Seasonal identity

As of its 2007 rebrand as één, the channel uses different idents, logos, blips and a different colour scheme every season. This seasonality concept was abolished when Eén got a new look, created by Gédéon Programmes, in early 2009.

Teletext

gollark: It has great tooling, too.
gollark: Rust (reset the timer, gibson) has its whole "fearless concurrency" thing, and is very performant and safe at the cost of, well, being harder to work with because you have to explicitly reason about lifetimes.
gollark: .NET is really fast and good for webapps.
gollark: D is also a thing which exists, although it has less of an ecosystem than Go.
gollark: F#'s pretty cool if you like .NET.
