The word "{{color|silver|{{Font|Century Schoolbook|{{Big|'''S'''}}'''PELLING'''}}}}" in the Century Schoolbook font slides in from that direction, with the word "'''TELEVISION'''" inside the lower line. The "{{color|silver|{{Font|Century Schoolbook|'''S'''}}}}" in "{{color|silver|{{Font|Century Schoolbook|{{Big|'''S'''}}'''PELLING'''}}}}" is a bit larger than the rest of the word, which shines in with "pings". From 1994 onward, the respective company byline fades in below the logo. | ||
