One of (if not the) first BBC homepage's from 1997. Note the lack of sport, and that online has a hyphen.

From what I remember the left hand nav is a frame set.

Though, that's pretty good for '97. Good web design was almost an oxymoron at the time.

My very poor memory remembers something different (late 96, early 97). I seem to remember the homepage had just two links, one was basically 'about the bbc' the other lead to a page about tv and radio. I think it had a blue background. In any case, I remember 'stealing' the Wallace & Gromit image and using it on my own first website... on geocities.

Well, you didn't steal from the BBC!

Aardman retained the rights over Wallace and Gromit.
