Background

Barraclough Carey Productions was the production company of Jenny Barraclough and George Carey that was founded in 1988 and made numerous documentaries throughout the 1990's. In 1997, the company merged with Mentorn Films (now Mentorn Media), renaming the company to Mentorn Barraclough Carey.

1st Logo (June 30, 1991-November 14, 1993)

Visuals: On a white textured background, a letter "C" with a very thin "B" overlapping it is on top of the stacked text "A BARRACLOUGH CAREY production". Additional credits for co-producers appear below.

Variants:

  • Sometimes, a copyright notice is added underneath.
  • Redemption Song contains an early version of this logo where it is set on a black background.
  • There is a different variant of the BBC notice where said info is italicized with its copyright notice placed underneath.
  • An alternate version of the Channel 4 notice adds "TELEVISION" to the Channel 4 name alongside a differently worded copyright notice.
  • The 1988 BBC logo may also appear underneath the logo on shows co-produced with them.

Technique: Computerized graphics.

Audio: The ending theme of the program.

Availability:

  • It appears on the Dispatches documentary "The Audit of War", several episodes of Moving Pictures and BiteBack, among others.
  • Its last appearance was on the Bosnian War documentary The Unforgiving.

2nd Logo (January 31, 1994-August 4, 1997)

Visuals: On a dark blue background, a gold ribbon with multiple cut curves is seen, ending on top of the text "A BARRACLOUGH CAREY PRODUCTION". Co-production companies are listed below.

Variants:

  • Sometimes, the logo is set on a black background.
    • On some programs such as Empire of the Censors, the font is different and more further away from the ribbons.
      • The text may also overlap with the ribbons to make more room for extra co-producers. This was seen on Messengers from Moscow.
  • Documentaries produced by the company's northern division adds the word "NORTH" next to "CAREY".
  • Like the 2nd logo, the 1988 BBC logo may appear underneath the logo on shows co-produced with them.
  • On The National Trust Centenary, the National Trust logo is present underneath.
  • On Rescue, a boxed portion of the Gaving Weightman Productions logo is shown underneath the Barraclough Carey logo.

Technique: Computerized graphics.

Audio: The ending theme of the program.

Availability:

  • The black background variant was seen on Knife to the Heart, Uppark - A Country House Reborn, Empire of the Censors, among others.
  • The North variant can be found on Stones of the Raj and Village Voices, respectively.
