Editor's Note: None.

3rd Logo (September 14, 2012-2016)


Logo: On a white background, we see the current "sky" logo appearing in CGI and mulitcoloured by a shine of light and the logo placing on the middle. Then the logo flashes and transitions into the text "A SKY ORIGINAL PROGRAMME", multicoloured just like the Sky logo, which appears in a zooming-in effect.

  • The closing variant appears at the end of sky original programming until 2016.

4th Logo (October 21-November 18, 2016)


Logo: On a black background, we see a multicoloured thunderbolt on the top-right side, then it expands and turns to flashes of dots, which explode. The camera turns back as it turns into the Sky logo, and flashes of multiple colors appear inside the logo. Then it turns full colour and the logo appears into a gradient white background with "Original Production" appearing underneath.

FX/SFX: CGI animation with the lights flashing.

Music/Sounds: A majestic fanfare.

Availability: Very rare. This only appeared on British airings of The Young Pope.
