'''Visuals:''' On a black background, we see a spinning globe with a {{color|gold|yellowish}} glow, suspended above some {{color|blue}} blocks. We then pan away from the blocks as the globe's glow fades out. The blocks zoom out, revealing to be the HIT logotype as seen in the previous logos, with the globe positioned in the hole of said logotype. The globe continues to rotate.

'''Variant:''' On ''Professor Bubble'', a <u>still version</u> with "ENTERTAINMENT PLC" in {{color|grey}} is used on a white background, and the screen is shared with the GMTV and Look Lively TV logos.

'''Visuals:''' On a {{color|deepskyblue|blue}} background with stripes and shines, we see a {{color|gold|yellow}}/{{color|orange}} gradient ribbon flying around from the right edge of the screen. Then the ribbon makes its way to form the spring (or tunnel) and an explosion occurs. After that, we see more colourful ribbons (but smaller) and some fireworks and bubbles come out of the tunnel. Later, the camera moves into the centre of the tunnel, then it disappears and from its place comes the globe which zooms into the hole in the HIT logo from the previous logos in {{color|deepskyblue|light blue}}, which fades in the same time as the globe comes. As it does so, the globe spins. The text "ENTERTAINMENT PLC" is written vertically next to the "T" in white, just like the 2nd and 3rd logos until it fades out.

*On <u>the 2004 restored versions of seasons 1-5 of ''Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends''</u> (the 1998 remastered versions still use the [[The Britt Allcroft Company|Britt Allcroft]] logo), we see a white background. On the top half it says "A Britt Allcroft Company Production" with the company's logo in between the words "Britt" and "Allcroft" and on the bottom half we see the HIT Entertainment logo. In between them is the word "For". Under all that is a copyright notice that says "(C) 1984-2003 Gullane (Thomas) Limited. All rights reserved". Post-2006 releases of the DVD have this logo replaced with the next logo, with the copyright notice intact.

'''Visuals:''' On a white background, we see a CGI block with "'''H'''" (white on {{color|red}}), "{{color|blue|'''i'''}}" ({{color|blue}} on {{color|gold|yellow}}), and "'''T'''" (white on {{color|blue}}), with "'''{{color|red|HiT entertainment}}'''" below it. Then, all of a sudden, two more of the same blocks come out from behind the main block, and they all jump around as the company name fades out. The blocks stack to reveal the "HiT" name before the two blocks (left and right) disappear. As it leaves only one block, the block looks around before becoming still as the company name fades back in below.

'''Trivia:''' If you were to take the audio from the original version, then take the audio from the short variant and/or one of the short versions, you would get a slightly extended version of this theme.
