'''Variants:'''
* On the first year it was used, after the above details, the {{Font color|gray|gray}} background would turn black via a sliding effect.
** On one episode of ''No Hiding Place'', after this transition was complete, the background fades into the opening of the series with the logo superimposed into the shot.
▲* On ''Farewell Arabia'', the logo is smaller. This also includes the closing variant.
* A color version from 1967 has been reported to exist. The logo is the same, but the background is {{Font color|blue|blue}}, the Adastral is {{Font color|red|red}} ({{Font color|#FFD900|yellow}} on a few programmes), "'''REDIFFUSION'''" is a deeper white, and "{{Font color|#FFD900|LONDON}}" is colored {{Font color|#FFD900|yellow}}.
* A Christmas variant exists where the background is a live-action batch of tinsel, tightly bound into a spiral rotating counterclockwise, and the "Rediffusion" text is a old-timely font which has a heavy drop-shadow effect that wipes in before.
'''FX/SFX:''' The rectangle, star spinning, and sliding.
Line 106 ⟶ 86:
'''Music/Sounds Variant:''' The Christmas variant has this blended with a rendition of "Deck the Halls".
'''Availability:''' Same as the previous logo. The color version was probably used in a few color programs prior to the 1968 loss of this franchise.
'''Editor's Note:''' None.

Associated-Rediffusion was the first ITV franchise to go on air, providing London's first weekday (Monday through Friday) service. A-R launched with a gala performance, presented jointly with ABC, on Thursday 22 September 1955. In 1964 the channel shortened its name to "Rediffusion London". In 1968, the company's franchise wasn't renewed and it was replaced by Thames (a forced joint venture between Rediffusion and EMI, which by then owned Associated British Corporation, ABC's parent company; ABC had also lost its franchise that year). The surviving A-R/Rediffusion London archive material is owned by Archbuild Ltd. and is held by the British Film Institute. In 1994, Victor Lewis-Smith purchased the rights to the Associated-Rediffusion name (and related trademarks) and launched a new company under the legendary name (which has produced a number of acclaimed documentaries). The present-day A-R (http://www.associated-rediffusion.tv) is active as a producer of documentaries and drama programming for ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5.
