Tiger Aspect Productions

Background
Tiger Aspect Productions is a British film and television production company founded by Peter Bennett-Jones in 1988 as Tiger Television. It was particularly known for its sitcoms (most notably Mr. Bean), though it also specialised in shows from other genres. In 1993, it was then merged with Aspect Film & Television to form its current name. In June 2006, the company was purchased by IMG Media, but was later sold to the UK division of Endemol in November 2009. It is currently owned by Banijay since 2020. The company also has a theatrical division called Tiger Aspect Films (shown on-screen as Tiger Aspect Pictures) and three divisions specialising in comedy, drama and family.

Logo: On a black background, in its upper part, the words "tiger" and "aspect" in a compressed lowercase font slide from opposite directions in a grey rectangle and join. The word "PRODUCTIONS" fits below the text. The lower part of the screen is taken by broadcasting and co-productions text, like the BBC and other studios. Also, the very down screen has a copyright name and year, which is later changed to Roman numerals.
