'''Channel 5 Video''' was a significant British VHS distributor from 1986 until 1991 when it was acquired by [[PolyGram Video|PolyGram]]. However, it was revived briefly from 1997 until 1999. It is completely unrelated to (and not to be confused with) [[Channel 5 (UK)|Britain's fifth terrestrial TV station]]. | '''Channel 5 Video''' was a significant British VHS distributor from 1986 until 1991 when it was acquired by [[PolyGram Video|PolyGram]].

'''Logo:''' On a gradient {{Color|blue}} background, a series of translucent 3D quadrilaterals rotate into view and form what turns out to be a right-pointing arrow with a "''5''" cut out of it. The arrow is then hit by a line of electricity (two CASCOM stock footages called "Electro Charge II" and "Electro Burst") and turns {{Color|gold}}, and as it turns to face us, the word "{{Color|gold|CHANNEL}}" also in {{Color|gold}} appears above. The whole logo faces us very briefly, with a flash of white light behind it, then zooms in towards us and disappears, leaving just the {{Color|blue}} background. | '''Logo:''' On a gradient {{Color|blue}} background, a series of translucent 3D quadrilaterals rotate into view and form what turns out to be a right-pointing arrow with a "''5''" cut out of it.
