* ''Alien'': A woman and a man donning a cowboy hat are stuck worried in a car as mysterious metal objects fly around them and form the Channel 4 logo twice. | * ''Alien'': A woman and a man donning a cowboy hat are stuck worried in a car as mysterious metal objects fly around them and form the Channel 4 logo twice. | ||
* ''3D Week'': We pan across a junkyard to see a forklift grabbing some broken cars.

* ''Homer'': We see Homer Simpson put a pack of Duff beer on his hammock, but the force created by him initially lying on it causes the cans to fly up onto the electrical lines. He screams and falls off the hammock, and climbs up a tree to try and retrieve the cans. Because of the cans being aluminum and connected to the electricity, every time he tries to grab them he gets electrocuted. Night falls, and he tries one last time to get the cans. The shock causes one of them to open, and he tries drinking the can and gets electrocuted at the same time. We pan out from the Simpsons' backyard to reveal that Homer has unwittingly caused Springfield to gain a power outage that briefly flashes and forms the Channel 4 logo. | * ''Homer'': We see Homer Simpson himself (voiced by actor Dan Castellaneta) put a pack of Duff beer on his hammock, but the force created by him initially lying on it causes the cans to fly up onto the electrical lines.

* ''April Fools Day'': On April Fools Day 2011, versions of these would be shown on the day where everything on screen that would make up the 4 logo is non-existent, turning the normal idents into plain old panoramic shots.FX/SFX: Depending on the variant used. Quite impressive, resembling the original 1982 idents. | * ''April Fools Day'': On April Fools Day 2011, versions of these would be shown on the day where everything on screen that would make up the 4 logo is non-existent, turning the normal idents into plain old panoramic shots.FX/SFX: Depending on the variant used.
