'''Logo:''' On a black background, we see a spinning globe with a yellowish glow, suspended above some blue blocks. We then pan away from the blocks as the globe's glow fades out. The blocks zoom out, revealing to be the HIT logotype as seen in the previous logos, with the globe positioned in the hole of said logotype. The globe continues to rotate. | |||
'''Variant:''' On ''Professor Bubble'', a still version with "ENTERTAINMENT PLC" in gray is used on a white background, and the screen is shared with the GMTV and Look Lively TV logos. | |||
'''FX/SFX:''' The globe rotating, the logotype zooming away. None for the variant. | |||
'''Music/Sounds:''' None or the show's end theme. | |||
'''Availability:''' Extinct. This was a prototype logo, and as such only appeared in the unaired pilot to ''Bob the Builder''. The variant was seen on the aforementioned ''Professor Bubble''. | |||
'''Editor's Note:''' This logo was lost until November 2020, when it along with episodes of ''Professor Bubble'' and the full pilot of ''Bob the Builder'' were found. | |||

'''Editor's Note''': The explosion, slightly jarring appearance, and audio cacophony might have caused a few scares, depending on your view. However, speaking of which, this logo is very well done and is considerably a favorite of many. In fact, this logo is the most creative on-screen logo for HIT Entertainment. | '''Editor's Note''': The explosion, slightly jarring appearance, and audio cacophony might have caused a few scares, depending on your view.
