'''Visuals:''' 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 (which is the Eilean Donan castle in Scottish Highlands). Under the picture are the words "'''BBC''' (in the Box logo) AMERICA presents", and the "BBC AMERICA" part expands as the logo fades out.

'''Audio:''' A light piano tune that ends in a heavily reverberated note with the "flash". The tune itself is taken from one of the BBC One idents from between 1997 and 2002.

'''Visuals:''' Inside a dark room, a silhouette of a woman is seen blowing {{color|red}} roses out of her hand. The screen then turns white with the left side of the screen being filled with a hazy {{color|blue}}/{{color|red}} blob. As the roses fully blow out, an air haze is seen, with what looks like a blurry {{color|blue|United}} {{color|red|Kingdom}} flag (even waving as such). The BBC America logo appears at the bottom.
