Background

This is the production arm of Rediffusion London.

1st Logo (September 22, 1955-April 5, 1964)

Visuals: Essentially a still version of the 1955 Rediffusion logo, with either "Presents" or "Channel Nine" being replaced by "An Associated-Rediffusion Production" or "An Associated-Rediffusion Network Production"

Variants:

  • There exists production, network production, and network presentation variants for this logo
  • Later versions of this logo has the text appear bolder than it was previously.
  • This logo can appear during the end credits of some shows.
    • On The Circus is Back, Olympia, this variant has this logo transparent.
  • A rare inverted variant exists.

Technique: None.

Audio: The ending theme of the programme.

Availability:

  • Pretty much of Rediffusion's programmes have been wiped by Thames.

2nd Logo (April 6, 1964-July 29, 1968)

Visuals: Essentially, a shortened version of the 1964 Rediffusion logo, except the text is already formed, and the word "PRODUCTION" is shown below the logo.

Variants:

  • The first production version from the first year only has the already-formed version of the 1964 Rediffusion logo.
  • A Christmas version used the same effect from the station ID.
  • On Farewell Arabia, the logo is smaller, like the network ID.

Technique: Simple cel animation.

Audio: The ending theme of the programme or none.

Availability: Appears on programmes by Rediffusion London from the time-period until 1968.

  • Was seen in-credit with animation on Ready, Steady Go! VHS releases in the mid-1980s.
  • The Christmas variant was seen on the first episode of Do Not Adjust Your Set.
  • Was fallen to victim with Thames' wiping of the Rediffusion archives.
