'''Logo:''' We start with a closeup of the globe hot-air balloon seen on BBC One's UK idents from 1997 to 2002. Then, in a very quick flash, a box appears against a {{color|blue}} background. It contains footage of the same balloon over a river and to the right of a riverside building. Under the picture are the words "'''BBC''' (in the Box logo) AMERICA presents", and the "BBC AMERICA" part expands as the logo fades out.
