UTV (formerly Ulster Television) is the ITV region of Northern Ireland that was formed in 1958 and went on the air a year later. The channel renamed to its current name in 1993. On October 19, 2015, UTV Media sold the brand to ITV plc.
Nicknames: "Early Oscilloscope", "The Mountains Of Mourne", "Early Zig-Zag", "The Line Graph"
Logo: On a black background, seven white dots appear one by one at random places on the screen while they all slowly zoom in together. The first three dots are then connected by two lines - the first short, the second long - which appear simultaneously on the screen. The process is then repeated with the last three dots being joined. Then, two lines draw upwards from the third and fifth dots at the same time, connecting with the fourth dot at the top of the screen to create a “zig zag”. The words “Ulster” then “Television” slowly unfold at the bottom of the screen.
Trivia: According to UTV's website, this was designed by Roy Irwin of Ballycarry as part of a design competition for the network. The dots in the logo are also supposedly meant to represent the seven major towns/cities in Northern Ireland (Strabane, Londonderry, Enniskillen, Coleraine, Armagh, Ballymena, and Belfast).
Variant: A shortened variant exists. Along with an In-credit version.
FX/SFX: The appearance of the dots and the lines, the lines tracing themselves. It appears that the dots and lines are cel-animated, but the text rotating are models.
Music/Sounds: A rendition of the Irish folk song "The Mountains Of Mourne", played on a celesta.
Availability: Extinct on TV. It first appeared at the start of their launch on October 31st, 1959. The shortened version made an appearance on UTV’s 25th anniversary program. The in-credit version can be seen on The Scandalous Parsonand on British television archival sites like "TV Ark" and the "BFI".
Editor's Note: None.
Nicknames: "Classic Oscilloscope", "Zig-Zag Telly"
Logo: An already-formed, still 2D image of UTV’s 1969 logo, similar to the previous design, only the lines have been made thicker and the dots have disappeared. A stylized television screen shape surrounds the new design. The words “Ulster Television” are underneath the logo. Both the oscilloscope device and text are in yellow against a blue background.
Accompanying clock ident: Throughout the ident's history, the clock would have different designs, though all of them have a yellow-on-blue color scheme with the “Ulster Television” below the logo.
Variants:
FX/SFX: None.
Music/Sounds: None.
Availability: Extinct on TV. Preserved by UK logo enthusiasts.
Editor's Note: None.
Nicknames: "UTV Lollipop", "Telly On A Stick", "Majestic Oscilloscope", "Zig-Zag Telly II", "Cheapo Telly on a Stick"
Logo: On a black background, we see a silver statuette (reportedly composed of melted film stock) made up of a stick with a cube roughly in the middle. On the cube’s four faces is the oscilloscope device featured in the previous logo etched into it, with a slight gold tint in the open spaces. The statuette rotates slowly for the duration of the ident, while light reflects off its silver surface. The words “Ulster Television” (in yellow) appear just below the cube part via a “wiping” effect.
Trivia: The entire design of the logo was set on a turntable and the background was merely a black cloth.
FX/SFX: Live-action, with the only animation being the wiping of the text.
Music/Sounds: An analog synth ditty.
Availability: Extinct. Last seen on TV Hell in the early '90s.
Editor's Note: Despite being only made for their 21st anniversary, it lasted 8 years.
Nicknames: "Early CGI Oscilloscope", "Zig-Zag Telly III"
Logo: Against a grayish background, a silver 3D version of the oscilloscope design is seen, along with the words "Ulster Television" in white. The entire logo casts a shadow in the back, shining as it does, but then zooms out in the end.
Trivia: The logo was originally created during the launch of Six Tonight where the logo would fade into the show after the oscilloscope design zoomed back. The logo would merely freeze in later uses.
FX/SFX: The logo zooming out.
Music/Sounds: Same as the 3rd logo.
Availability: Extinct on TV. Preserved by UK logo enthusiasts.
Editor's Note: None.

Logo: On a rainbow colored background, we see the white text "SUMMER" up against a rainbow colored scribble. The design from the previous logos in yellow is seen below. The text "on Ulster Television" is below everything else.
FX/SFX: TBA.
Music/Sounds: Presumably a continuity announcer.
Availability: Extinct. Was only used for summer broadcasts from the era. Maybe check TV Ark.
Editor's Note: None.
Nicknames: "CGI Oscilloscope", "Zig-Zag Telly IV"
Logo: On a cloudy gray background, the camera zooms up to the UTV oscilloscope device lying on its side, with the yellow “zigzag pattern” drawing itself within a blue “TV shape”. As the camera gets close up, it suddenly jerks back and rotates up as the logo rises up, revealing the entire thing. A silver CGI banner with the words “Ulster Television” flies in from the bottom right of the screen in a wavelike motion, settling underneath the oscilloscope.
Accompanying clock ident: On a grey background, a light grey ring with white spokes in it can be seen. Clock hands in yellow, light blue, and blue are seen, and the Ulster logo is seen in the top right corner, colored with a blue gradient on the "TV" part.
Variants:
FX/SFX: Decent CGI (for 1988).
Music/Sounds: A synthesized horn, piano, and drum fanfare. On the summer variant, the theme to “Blockbusters” plays.
Availability: Probably extinct. Preserved by UK logo enthusiasts. The still variant can be seen in their shows from the time.
Editor's Note: None.
Note: This ident was not used on air, likely because the logo was misrepresented.
Nickname: "ITV Generic"
See ITV for description.
Nickname: "UTV is YoUr TV", "The Box"
Logo: On a blurry shot of a waterfall, several different pieces in purple and yellow zoom out. They soon rotate towards the screen to form the new UTV logo, looking completely different from the oscilloscope-based designs. A mostly-purple plate with a yellow slab on the side is seen, with a yellow "U" (except the part touching the yellow slab, which is purple) appearing on it in Times New Roman. "TV" is also seen on the yellow section in Condensed Futura. The background then brightens up a bit.
Variants:
FX/SFX: The waterfall shot, and the pieces merging together.
Music/Sounds: A calm orchestrated theme.
Availability: Extinct.
Editor's Note: None.
Logo: In front of a shot of an Irish landmark, the camera quickly zooms in towards it. It then blurs and distorts as parts of the UTV logo emerge, forming in at the end. Distortions emerge from it until it ends.
FX/SFX: The zoom in, the logo forming. How the logo formed at the end differed from ident to ident.
Music/Sounds: A soft theme, varying from each ident, with an announcer usually.
Availability: Extinct.
Editor's Note: None.
Logo: On a black background, a large strip filled with clips of Northern Ireland is seen slowly moving along, as different effects play in it and several translucent squares fly pass the screen. After a bit, the strip slowly turns a flurry of colors as the UTV logo emerges via a different effect. Several aftershadows may appear.
FX/SFX: The strip, the logo forming.
Music/Sounds: A remix of the 9th logo's theme.
Availability: Extinct.
Editor's Note: None.
Logo: Footage from around Northern Ireland is shown. A transparent box then slides in to the right, and then the footage goes by quicker as it forms a square with the letter "U" in it, which itself turns into the new UTV logo, which consists of a purple rectangle with the letter "U" on the left, and a smaller yellow rectangle inside that with "TV" in red. The footage then turns into a yellowish, purple or red background with a rotating transparent box inside.
FX/SFX: Live Action, with animation for the UTV logo.
Music/Sounds: Another remix of the same jingle.
Availability: Extinct.
Editor's Note: TBA
Logo: A person touches the screen, which ripples into a transparent version of the UTV logo from before. The background turns black.
FX/SFX: All the animation and live action used.
Music/Sounds: A calmer remix of the same jingle.
Availability: Extinct.
Editor's Note: TBA
Nicknames: "UTV III", "UTV People"
Logo: Like the then-current generic ITV1 ident, we see a montage of various ITV1 personalities, which ends with a shot of the UTV logo from before. The logo zooms toward us a bit.
Variants:The regional variants used for local UTV programming featured various UTV personalities, and the national variant featured various ITV personalities.
FX/SFX: The panels and zooming, as well as Live Action.
Music/Sounds: A rather uninspired jazz-like tune, or an equally uninspired guitar tune. This is sometimes accompanied by a continuity announcement.
Availability:Saved on programming from the era.
Editor's Note: None.
Logo: The camera scrolls through a location in Northern Island. A black border on top displays white text that tells us where the location is which moves slowly to the left, while the bottom has a banner where the UTV logo appears from the left.
FX/SFX: Mainly live action.
Music/Sounds: Originally used the ITV1 ident soundtracks used at this time, but some time later the idents gained their own soundtracks based on the UTV jingle.
Availability: Extinct.
Editor's Note: TBA
Logo: On a black background, yellow bars form live action footage, with the UTV logo forming on the right. As with before, the text on top describes the place where the footage was filmed.
FX/SFX: The bars forming, the live action footage.
Music/Sounds: Mostly the same soundtracks as before.
Availability: Extinct.
Editor's Note: TBA
Logo: Same as before, but the slogan "It's all about U" (with the U bit being part of the UTV logo) appears below, and the location doesn't normally appear.
Variant: In 2007, UTV aired a celebratory program titled UTV Rewind, for the days leading up the event, the Northern Island footage was replaced with older UTV idents.
FX/SFX: Same as before.
Music/Sounds: TBA
Availability: Extinct.
Editor's Note: TBA
Logo: Same as before, but the black background is replaced with a white background.

Editor's Note: TBA
Logo: We see a video of someone doing something around northern Ireland. At the left, we see the "U" from the previous logo and a word describing what the person is doing in the video next to it. The word fades out, causing the "TV" banner to appear. The name of the place where the video takes place at appears at the bottom right.
FX/SFX: The video, and the words disappearing and appearing.
Music/Sounds: TBA
Availability: Extinct.
Editor's Note: None.
Logo: The UTV slogan "Part of U" appears in the middle of a video of something around Northern Ireland, it then closes into the UTV logo, and the name of the place of where the ident of filmed appears on the bottom.

Availability: Extinct.
Editor's Note: None.
Logo: Same as the 2013 ITV logos, but the logo is now the new UTV logo and fades in as one piece. The same "U" is there, but its not in a box, instead having a circle with part of the "ITV" logo in it.
