Logo: On a gradient pink background, many red lines are standing on the floor in various distances. They zoom out and move together to form the Avalon logo. The black bar flies in as we zoom.

- On shows co-produced with the BBC, its logo is seen underneath the Avalon Television logo.
- Another version has this variant with a different font.
FX/SFX: The logo is collected from pieces.
Music/Sounds: Same as before.

Logo: Glass parts pan over the screen and zoom out to form the Avalon logo zooming out on a waving blue background.
Variants:
- On Workaholics, the logo begins when it is at the zooming out animation. On pre-2014 episodes, it is split in the top half of the screen while the Gigapix Studios logo plays in the bottom.
- On some episodes of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (others have neither it nor the Sixteen String Jack Productions logo at all), it is still.
FX/SFX: The logo collects and shines.
Music/Sounds: A dreamy five-note synth tune or the closing theme.
Music/Sounds Variant: Starting in 2015, a dramatic high-pitch synth note is used.
Availability: Can be seen on their shows like Russell Howard's Good News, the final seasons of Harry Hill's TV Burp and seasons 4 to 7 of Not Going Out. It also appeared on stand up specials and then new shows such as Workaholics, Adam DeVine's House Party and Last Week Tonight with John Oliver and Taskmaster. It surprisingly appeared on Adam DeVine: Best Time of Our Lives despite the company changing their logo in 2017.
Editor's Note: None.
