'''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 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 {{color|blue}} and white clouds appear behind it. The shield then changes to {{color|gold|yellow}} and {{color|blue}} and "{{color|blue|The Open University}}" appears below.
