Background

Launched in December 1998, ITV2 was promised to be a showcase for repeats of some of the best programs on ITV1, as well as having some exclusive new programs. As time moved on, it ultimately became more of a youth-oriented channel.

1st Logo (1998-2001)

Logo: We see some blurred footage, later revealed to be the point-of-view of an object. We then see a close-up of the object, which zooms back a couple times. The ITV2 logo at the time (a box with a glowing number 2 on top of the then-ITV logo) forms, and the slogan "a different view" circles the logo. The background blurs.

Technique: The blurred footage, the camera zooming out. Live-action.

Music/Sounds: Muffled sounds, then a Y2K-era techno theme.

Availability: Extinct.

2nd Logo (2001-2003)

Logo: We see a scene made out of words relating to the scene. A yellow box with the number 2 in the Frutiger font is formed, and places itself on the right of a blue rectangle with a word relating to the scene. The 2 moves to the right of the rectangle, turning the rectangle into the ITV logo in the process. The URL itv.com forms itself on the bottom of the screen.

Variant: In 2002, the logo was made 3D to match the ITV1 logo at the time.

Technique: CGI.

Music/Sounds: Sound effects relating to the scene (for example, rollercoaster sounds and screaming on the rollercoaster ident).

Logo: We see the 2013 ITV2 logo placed on the left side of the screen, as a random assortment of clips play in the background and the logo changes color. Eventually, the ident will settle on one of the clips below.

Variants:

  • Hammers: We see a wall of clocks in the background, before hammers fall from the left side of the screen, smashing into the clocks. The ITV2 logo is colored red-orange.

  • Jam: Across a pink floor, we see lots of jam jars spinning in place and moving across the screen as if they were cars in a traffic jam. The ITV2 logo is colored pinkish-white.
  • Bags: On a light blue background, we see lots of plastic bags with either pink stripes or blue stripes blowing through the air. The ITV2 logo is colored light blue.
