Hi guys, does anyone know what font Yorkshire Water are using these days? I've tried to identify it on whatthefont.com but it's not matching anything. It looks strangely familiar but I can't for the life of me work it out... can any of you lovely people help me?

it reminds me of Bryant - but it isn't quite right -

it's also similar to Ulissa Rounded:

and VAG Rounded:

or Howie's Funhouse (http://dafont.com/en/font.php?file=howies_funhouse)

It's Variable (MADType) ...I'm pretty sure. http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/madtype/variable/
Do I win anything if I'm right? heheheh

Thanks everyone. Variable's pretty close but not exact. The Yorkshire Water font isn't as condensed and certain letters are flatter (like the 's'). If anybody else can workit out, please let me know.
BTW...Cheers CatintheHat1, I hadn't seen variable before - I think I'll be using that quite a bit :)

... I'm the same way... if there ever was to be a legitimate ad that had a screaming headline 'Call this number in 5 seconds and you'll win a-Bijillion Dollars!!!', I'd be zooming in to read the fine print, miss the deadline and walk away a pauper.
So if and when you find out... please let us know! Inquiring minds...
