'''Logo:''' Three dots, colored {{color|green}}, {{color|red}} and {{color|blue}} respectively, appear on a black background. They shrink and merge into one white dot just above the center of the screen. A {{Font color|blue|blue} "{{Font color|blue|2}}" is then drawn around the dot, and when it is completed, the word "COLOUR", in white, appears below. The "2" then starts rotating around, and one at a time, three more "2"s (in the same style) appear, colored {{color|red}}, {{color|green}} and white respectively, before the {{Font color|blue|blue} "{{Font color|blue|2}}" reappears. The rotation continues for the rest of the logo.

'''Trivia:''' Although the logo itself was introduced on 2 December 1967, the animated ident did not appear until 15 November 1969, the same day BBC 1 and ITV began colour broadcasting. Until then, holding slides with the logo were used to introduce programming.
