I just found this, and I want to know when this was used?

I think its an early '90s Christmas ident. I've got an example of it used before 'Farther Crhistmas' anyway. It used the normal jingle though. There's also a couple of trailer animations that go with it.

Oh, while we're on the subject, what year was Channel 4's 'A Beastly Christmas'? I found quite a few promos for it recently. I'm guessing 1992 or 1993?

The ident shown here is from 1991. There are more images and video from Channel 4's 1991 Christmas promotions and symbol on the Christmas pages within the Channel 4 section on TV Room.

That image - I've never seen it before but I think it should be the future channel 4 logo.

Nah! Bring back the colour blocks! Despite being 19 years old, they dont look dated!
