Hi there!

Does anyone know what font is used in the Disney Channel names in the UK (ignoring Disney)?

The main Disney logo (the "signature") is available "free for personal use", Waltograph I think it's called.

The first Playhouse logo I suspect may be two or possibly three different fonts together. The "house" part appears to be a variant on Kristen, which was bundled with Microsoft Office at one point and may now come as part of Windows.

The first Disney Channel logo (with the dice) looks strikingly similar to your regular Times New Roman/Garamond type font without the serifs, while the bottom Junior logo appears to be a Futura font with a 3D effect for the logo and a customised letter i to get their Mickey in.

The later Playhouse logo is called Jacoby which I believe is a commercial font.
