Carlton Productions

Background
Carlton UK Productions was formed in 1994 from a merger between the production divisions of Carlton Television and Central Independent Television. It was folded in 1997 when Carlton got a rebrand.

1st Logo (1994-August 26, 1997)
Logo: This is an in-credit notice of the Carlton logo with "UK Productions" added.

Variants:
 * On the Wolves, Witches & Giants special "Cinderella", the notice is in black.
 * On Dale's Supermarket Sweep, the logo takes place on the same marble background as the 1995 Carlton and 1988 Central endcaps. Plus, the text is stylized like the next logo.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: The ending theme of the show.

Availability: Uncommon.
 * It was seen on episodes of Family Fortunes, Link, Dale's Supermarket Sweep and Tots TV, among others.
 * Some episodes of Cadfael such as "A Morbid Taste for Bones" also contain this logo. However, most of series 2 and one episode of series 3 uses the next logo below and series 1 has no closing logo whatsoever. On a different note, Cadfael was the last show to bear the Carlton UK Productions name with the series 3 finale, "The Raven in the Foregate".

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (March 15, 1995-August 19, 1997)
Logo: Next to a black planet with fire glowing out, we see the text "CARLTON UK Productions" on the top right hand side of the screen. If there is a co-producer (e.g. Ragdoll Productions), their logo will appear above Carlton's with "FOR" appearing on top of the latter.

Variants:
 * An animated variant exists where as the fire is burning, the Carlton notice fades out and the screen zooms into the flames rising out of a portion of the planet, crossfading into the Central logo.
 * Sometimes, the planet is on the bottom left corner of the screen whereas the notice is on the bottom right.
 * A copyright notice, usually containing "CARLTON UK Television", may be seen underneath the company's name.
 * For programmes co-produced with Channel 4, a notice from said company in the same font as the Carlton logo is placed underneath.
 * Sometimes, the notice is inside the planet.
 * "FOR" may also be replaced with "AND".
 * On current prints of Sharpe's Gold, the copyright notice is changed to a "ITV Studios" one.
 * On Celebrity Squares, copyright info would appear below the logo.

FX/SFX: None for the standard version. The animated variant has the fire burning and the screen zooming into it.

Music/Sounds: The ending theme of the show.

Availability: Uncommon. Despite its short lifespan, it was often seen on many Carlton co-produced shows at the time, especially in 1995.
 * The normal variant without any co-producers can be seen on Challenge airings of 1995 Bullseye episodes and some series 2 and 3 episodes of Cadfael up to "Saint Peter's Fair", which would be the logo's last appearance. Some episodes from said series would use the previous logo.
 * It can also be seen on Peak Practice as well.
 * The animated variant is ultra rare and was spotted on a Challenge airing of an unknown 1995 episode of Bullseye.
 * Shows that have the Carlton notice inside the planet mostly consists of game shows such as Challenge airings of Catchphrase, Dale's Supermarket Sweep, and Celebrity Squares.
 * The variant with the planet on the bottom left corner can be seen on Sharpe's Gold, The Story Store, Cone Zone, The Clive James Story and Moving Story.
