'''Music/Sounds:''' The ident starts with a distinct rumbling sound, before an ambience of strings and a choir begins to build up. As the explosion happens, a loud explosion sound is heard, followed by a distinct wavy pulsating noise, and sharp twinkling noises when the crystals appear on screen. The sounds end with the ambience fading out as a synthetic four note jingle is played, with a 'thud' sound on the final note. After the music plays, a low rumbling can still be heard, alongside the distinct wavy pulsating noise from earlier. At this point, an announcer would typically begin to speak.

'''Music/Sounds:''' Starting out with a low rumbling sound, a reverse cymbal is heard in the buildup to the glow changing color to orange. As the glow changes color, the same wavy pulsating effect from the first ident can be heard, before a distinct ambience begins to build up. When the glow changes color again, a synth string is heard, before fading out to silence.

'''Music/Sounds:''' Starting with a simple twinkly four note piano melody, as the water droplet falls into the ocean the melody begins to build up with synthesised instruments such as flutes and violins, culminating in a bombastic fanfare as the shapes rise from the ocean, causing loud crashes as waves begin to erupt across the surface. When the camera cuts to the aerial view, two low thuds are heard as the music returns to the simple piano melody, which loops until the end of the ident.

* Dog Walker: A gentle string melody is accompanied by some bells and the sounds of dogs barking and growling. As the diamond forms, a dramatic synthesised orchestra is heard, ending on the four note jingle played on a guitar, and an ambient loop of the string melody from the start of the ident.

* The Catch: A gentle piano melody is heard through the ambience of the park, and as the net is pulled from the water a sudden low rumble is heard, building up into a loud crash as the shark appears. Once the diamond disappears a synthesised version of the jingle plays, ending with a gentle ambience once again.
