'''Logo:''' On a black background, we see a circle with batwings and points on the top and the end. Below it is "'''{{Font|Impact|B B C}}'''".
'''Variants:'''
*On a {{Font color|silver|light gray}} backround, surrounded by a checkerboard border, the symbol from the original logo is shown, except the design of the wings, the circle and arrows look different. The text '''''BBC''''' in bolder text is shown in white below, and in black above.
*On a {{Font color|darkgray|dark gray}} background, the symbol from the original logo is shown in a black circle, yet it lacks the detail in the circle in wings. Two flag-like shapes are beside the circle, which have designs descending from white to black. The text "BBC" is in a different, skinnier font, in white above and in black below.
'''FX/SFX:''' The moving concentric circles and the shining batwings.
'''Music/Sounds:''' None, but may contain music and/or a continuity announcer.
'''Availability:''' Extinct on TV.
'''Editor's Note:''' None.

'''Nickname:''' "BBC Television Service"
'''Logo:''' On a black background, we see "'''B.B.C.'''". Below it is "'''TELEVISION SERVICE'''". Under that is the name of the system being used, either the Baird or the Marconi-E.M.I.
'''Variants:''' There were many variants including wave-shaped color bars in different shades of white and black, along with one that consists of a "compass" with some bat wing-like shapes on the sides in various shades of gray with "BBC" on the top and bottom, all on a gray BG. In 1987, BBC made a classics movie and one clip has this logo, but instead of the Baird or the Marconi-EMI system, the Dolby system is credited.
