My Video iPod (UK) now does not properly screen redraw. All objects written to screen remain as artifacts. I will have to regress to the previous version! Not impressed!

I have updated my 5G Video iPod (60Gb) to version 1.1 without any trouble. Screen refresh for video, photos and album art is perfect... Not sure why you are experiencing a problem...
