'''Logo:''' Inside a scene depending on one of several locations (seen below), a globe-patterned balloon flies. The pattern of the globe uses a {{color|red}} colour for sea, and {{color|orange}} colour for the continent, and is complete with clouds. Superimposed at the bottom of the screen is the current BBC logo with the text "ONE" next to it, either fading in or appearing whenever the camera cuts to a new shot, depending on the variant | '''Logo:''' Inside a scene depending on one of several locations (seen below), a globe-patterned balloon flies.

* Like the previous logo, for programmes with Ceefax subtitles, the 888 caption appears in the top right.

* Starting in December 1999 with that year's Christmas ident, the http://www.bbc.co.uk/ URL was put above the channel logo, and was added to all idents by June 2000. | |||
* Accompanying clock ident: Like the previous clock, this used the GNAT system like before, but the minute hand moves every 15 seconds again, and the background appears to be the inside of the balloon. The BBC One logo is tacked on to the bottom of the screen as usual. When it was converted to widescreen in 1998, the minute hand moved every minute again, though some regions still had the previous version. It was retired when the logo was ditched, and thus is the last time a clock has been used. | * Accompanying clock ident: Like the previous clock, this used the GNAT system like before, but the minute hand moves every 15 seconds again, and the background appears to be the inside of the balloon.

* Christmas 2001: Three toys interact and fly around a room as they float around on helium balloons, with a Christmas tree on the side. We move to the window, where we can see the BBC One globe in the sky. The toys each represent something on the Christmas Day schedule. The dinosaur represents the terrestrial premiere of ''The Lost World: Jurassic Park''. The Trotters Van represents the ''Only Fools and Horses'' episode "If They Could See Us Now", the first to air of the series since 1996, and the robot dog represents the terrestrial premiere of ''Toy Story''. This ident package was produced by [[Aardman Animations]]. | * Christmas 2001: Three toys interact and fly around a room as they float around on helium balloons, with a Christmas tree on the side.
