Ahead of the BBC branding update which kicks in later this morning across many of the corporation’s TV services, here’s the final appearance of the 1997 BBC logo on various channel idents from the early hours of this morning.

The very basic network announcements for BBC One, BBC Two and BBC Four are due to ongoing issues with the equipment that captures pre-recorded announcements, following the incident at Red Bee Media on 25th September.
