BBC Video was formed and established in 1980 as a division of BBC Enterprises to distribute BBC television programmes for home video (later "BBC Worldwide") with John Ross Barnard as head. In 2004, BBC Video merged with Video Collection International (VCI), to create 2 Entertain, although as of 2020, BBC uses their own logos still on releases of their material. Their videos originally went through CBS/Fox Video (from 1985 to 1998) and 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment (from 1998-2000) for U.S. distribution. The license was taken over by Warner Home Video in 2000. Today, while Warner still owns home media rights to BBC Video, their logo has been replaced by the 2Entertain logo, except on ''Charlie and Lola''. In Australia, their videos were originally distributed by [[PolyGram Video (UK)|PolyGram Video]], before Roadshow Entertainment and [[ABC DVD|ABC Video]] (the Australian "ABC") took over in 1996. | BBC Video was formed and established in 1980 as a division of BBC Enterprises to distribute BBC television programmes for home video (later "BBC Worldwide") with John Ross Barnard as head.

'''Editor's Note:''' The logo is a favorite of many due to its really nice animation and catchy music, especially the 1984 music. | '''Editor's Note:''' The logo is a favorite of many due to its really nice animation and catchy music, especially the 1984 music. | ||

'''Logo:''' We see several white lines stretching and forming a star-like shape, then these separate (explode) and disappear, leaving some of the dots moving, while the BBC logo appears in the center. The dots disappear after a few seconds. | '''Logo:''' We see several white lines stretching and forming a star-like shape, then these separate (explode) and disappear, leaving some of the dots moving, while the BBC logo appears in the center.
