*A low tone version of the music exists. On this version, the music comes in when the {{Font color|#00AF00|green}} and {{Font color|blue|blue}} streaks merge.

*At the end of the 1997 VHS of ''Diana: A Celebration'' (one of the last tapes to use this logo), it is completely silent. This also occurs at the beginning and end of the UK VHS of the same release, as well as Poldark Series 1 Volume 1.

*On some re-releases (mainly from those that originaly contain the 1984 version of the 1980 logo), if you listen very closely, you might hear the faint 1984 music from the 1980 logo humming over the logo and warning screen, due to poor plastering.

'''Availability:''' Appears on some BBC programs tapes from the era, like Series 1 of ''Yes Prime Minister''. The ''Doctor Who'' variant is also included on the 2008 DVD release of "The Five Doctors"...not as the opening logo, but as an Easter egg. To find it, go to "Special Features" on Disc 2, then highlight "Nationwide" and go left. This logo is intact on the DVD release of ''Wallace and Gromit in Three Grand Adventures'' from DreamWorks Home Entertainment (around 2004, but not seen on the later HiT Entertainment reprint). This weirdly also appears on Netflix prints of ''A Blackadder Christmas Carol'', possibly due to using a video master; presumably, it also appeared on PBS broadcasts of the same, as the CBS/Fox release followed this with the BBC Lionheart Television logo. It can sometimes plaster previous logos on re-releases, and seen on all ''Pingu'' tapes at the time in the UK (''Barrel of Fun'' used the last logo though, although an rare print contains this logo instead). A silent variant (with the 1993 copyright date) is included at the end of the UK DVD of Poldark Series 1 Volume 1 released by Playback in 2003 due to coming from the 1993 video master. The closing logo (with the 1994 copyright date) is included at the end of the DVD of Doctor Who: More Than 30 Years in the Tardis from the Doctor Who: The Legacy Collection DVD box set released in 2013. The closing logo (with the 1995 copyright date) is included at the end of Red Dwarf Smeg Outs on the Red Dwarf: Just the Smegs UK DVD released in 2007.

'''Editor's Note:''' It's known as one of the more ominous logos in the logo community due to its somewhat depressing music and black background, combined with the strange-looking BBC logo and limited animation; however, it is a great logo.
