1st Logo (November 20, 2003-September 4, 2006)

Visuals: On a white background, the stacked text "REMEDY PRODUCTIONS LTD" is shown. Two blue caps containing the letters "R" and "P" fall down and rest next to the "Y" in "REMEDY". Several bubbles fade in afterwards.

Variants:

Sometimes, the logo is still.
A later variant places the logo on a dark blue background.

Technique: 2D animation.

Audio: The ending theme of the show.

Availability: Seen on their earliest programmes such as Ear Candy and E4 Music Zone. It made its last appearance on the The Beginner's Guide to episode "Scientology".

2nd Logo (October 17, 2006-)

Visuals: On a red spinning sunburst background, the camera zooms out while a nurse holding an electric guitar jumps and slides towards the screen. When it zooms out, the text "REMEDY PRODUCTIONS LTD" is formed along with the copyright information.

Variants:

A letterboxed variant of the logo exists, where the copyright notice is placed at the very bottom part of the screen and is somewhat bigger in order to make it readable.
On Channel 4's breakfast series Freshly Squeezed, the "For Channel 4" text is at the center below the logo and the copyright year is written in Roman numerals.
In some cases, the nurse is seen looking at a TV set and then puts her foot onto the TV, causing it to turn on and show static.
- This variant was boxed on most series of Fifteen to One.
- On Toby Dormer's reel on Vimeo, the logo is set on a dimly lit blue background.
- A print version of this exists where it is in white.
Another variant has the woman waving a flag.
A print version exists where the nurse in red is holding a small bottle with one of her legs raised and the text underneath is shown in black.

Technique: 2D Flash animation by Will Wellesley-Davies.^[1]

Audio: Either a simple electric guitar tune, the ending theme of the show or none.

Availability:

It can be seen on most of their productions, such as the Channel 4 breakfast programme Freshly Squeezed, the BBC Radio 1 Teen Awards, the 2014-2019 version of Fifteen To One, the MTV UK series Fired By Mum & Dad, Penguin A&E, and the BBC One quiz game show Ready Or Not, among others.
It is intact on most of their music programming that were produced by MTV UK (such as pre-2018 episodes of Artist: Official Top 20, MTV Asks, MTV Essentials and The Official UK Top 40, among others) from 2008 until early 2018, when they switched their production arm to Elephant House Studios in 2018, then to MTV UK themselves in April 2019. Some of these shows could still be seen occasionally on MTV music channels outside of North America.
The print logo variant can be seen on ¿Juegas o qué? and promotional DVDs of Fifteen to One.
