'''Editor's Note:''' This logo and its successor are infamous among British audiences (much like American audiences and the Viacom "V of Doom") for frightening young children.

'''Logo:''' On a black background, shining rays are seen coming out a black circle, looking like a solar eclipse. A bright light then shines on the circle, revealing the shield and a translucent black bar with the either the BBC1 or BBC2 logo at the time. The light then changes position and the bar becomes solid. The light then disappears and some {{Font color|blue|blue}} and white clouds behind it. The shield then changes to {{Font color|#FFD900|yellow}} and {{Font color|blue|blue}} and "{{Font color|blue|The Open University}}" appears below.

'''Logo:''' On a {{Font color|#FFD900|yellow}} blueprint background, the familiar OU shield is seen with glasses, a mouth, an eye, hair, and a body wearing a lab coat tying on a computer and holding a beaker surrounded by science stuff, including a violin. He moves a bit and the pictures changes to become a geographer with a ponytail, dress, jacket, and {{Font color|#FFD900|yellow}} lips holding some kind of case and binoculars surrounded by geography stuff. She moves a bit and blinks her eye before she and the pictures change to a construction worker with a nose, mouth, hard hat, plaid shirt, and different pictures. The construction worker is holding a walkie-talkie and a clipboard. He then moves and talks into the walkie-talkie and everything disappears but the shield. "The Open University", in the same font as before, uncrumples itself and then lays flat.
