In 2004, BBC Video merged with [[Video Collection International (UK)|Video Collection International]] (VCI), to create [[2 Entertain (UK)|2 Entertain]], although as of 2020, [[BBC Studios]] uses their own logos on releases of their material, with the 2 Entertain branding being used on non-BBC releases the company distributes.

In the United States, the BBC released their products through [[20th Century Fox Home Entertainment|CBS/Fox Video/20th Century Fox Home Entertainment]] from 1985 to 2000. For some reason, the license was taken over by [[Warner Home Video]] in 2000, which isn't necessarily bad, but can feel pretty weird at times. However, their logo was phased out on actual releases as of 2007, instead using just the standard UK logo or the 2 Entertain logo except on ''Charlie and Lola'' (only the print logo is shown). As of 2017, the BBC self-distributes their releases in the United States.
