Thames logo spotted

I was watching an episode of the Simpsons the other day, and saw the Thames logo on their TV set. Unfortunately the episode was dubbed into Japanese, so it was a bit difficult to know what was going on, but the idea was that Homer was watching PBS to see a 80's British sitcom which seemed to be a violent The Young Ones type thing (that was BBC though, so I don't know what it was exactly spoofing).

Just when it was getting started, it got interupted with a message to ask to pledge more money (Can any of the US readers tell us if they really do that - tease people with a bit of a show and then don't show the end until people pledge money?). Frustrated, Homer pledged money, but when he didn't pay up he got chased down the street by Big Bird, Elmo and the Teletubbies!

Anyway, since this is a presentation forum, I guess the point is that it was the famous 'Reflections' ident and I wonder if there are any other UK TV logos that are known quite so well internationally? Only other one I can think of is the BBC (although I think American news still used the old slanted one when reporting about Jill Dando) and possibly ITN, since it seems like they supply half the news to CNN International these days (so much that it seems like they have much more UK coverage than BBC World)

I think this was brought up before (or maybe I'm thinking of another forum)...

Anyway, during pledge drives (which only happen once every, say, three months), PBS will interrupt programs - frequently - to get people to pledge. But they wouldn't cut away less than five minutes after the program began. And although these breaks often seem to take longer than the program segments that come before and after it, I've never seen them hold out for a certain level of money.

Then again, I've only ever seen one PBS station, the one beamed up from Detroit.

That logo is not shown on Sky.

I've seen the episode.

But not the ident.

I don't think that episode will have to to BBC2 yet.

I've seen the Thames logo on the programme on Sky, but I've only seen the episode once, the first time it went out. They may have cut it since then, but I doubt it.
