Background

This is the production arm of Bravo.



1st Logo (2000-2003)


Logo: On a dark cornflower blue background, we see the 2000 Bravo logo where the box spins once, followed by the "Horned O". On top of it is the co-producer's logo and "production for"/"for" in white and underneath reads "©Flextech Rights Limited (year)" and the company's website in an outlined box.

Variant: Starting in 2003, the background is dark blue, the bottom text is entirely in white, and a byline is added underneath the Bravo logo, reading "A Telewest Broadband company" with the Telewest Broadband logo on the left.

FX/SFX: The logo spinning.

Music/Sounds: The ending theme of the programme.

Availability: Extremely rare.

  • Bravo's original programming is rather obscure and overshadowed by popular shows that aired on the network, plus the fact the channel's original lineup consisting of reality shows makes them very hard to find thanks to them receiving little to no release on home media or seen on television since their original runs.
  • It wasn't until recently when their availability on streaming websites such as Tubi and on Sky's website kept the logo from being increasingly hard to find as Travel Sick and Booze Britain have been preserved on said sites.
  • However, series 1 of Cops, Cars and Superstars has the logo plastered by the 2012 Sky Vision logo.

2nd Logo (2004-2006)

Logo: An orange nighttime cityscape is shown with the 2004 Bravo logo on top of it and to the right of the co-producer's logo. Underneath reads:

Production for Bravo
A Telewest Broadband company
© Flextech Rights Limited (year)
www.bravo.co.uk

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: The ending theme of the programme.

Availability: Extremely rare.

  • Like before, it was seen on obscure reality shows from this period such as series 2 of Booze Britain, When Games Attack, series 2 of Cops, Cars and Superstars, and Man's Work, most of them are preserved on streaming sites.

3rd Logo (2006-2010)

Logo: Just an in-credit version of the 2006 Bravo logo.

Variant: On series 2 of Danny Dyer's Deadliest Men, the logo is dodger blue.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: The ending theme of the programme.

Availability: Extremely rare.

  • There are even less known original programmes from Bravo from this period with Danny Dyer's Deadliest Men being one of them to use this logo.
  • The DVD release, Danny Dyer's Deadliest Men 2: Living Dangerously, has this logo intact.

4th Logo (2010-2011)


Logo: On a dimly lit white background, the top portion of the 2010 "Horned O" logo is shown slowly flipping over with the text "Production for BRAVO" over. A few seconds later, the notice fades out and then the co-producer's logo fades in with the text "A/An (co-producer's name) production for Bravo" and "© LIVING TV Group Limited (year)" underneath it.

Variant: On Brit Cops, the co-producers name is shown with the "Production for BRAVO" text, both of which fade out together to reveal the "© LIVING TV Group Limited (year)" copyright on its own.

FX/SFX: The "Horned O" flipping and the logos fading in and out.

Music/Sounds: The ending theme of the programme.

Availability: Ultra rare.

  • Until recently, its only known appearance was on later series of Sun, Sea and A&E, which can only be found through Sky's website and occasionally airs on Sky Witness.
  • The Steadfast Television variants were also recently found on the last two series of Brit Cops, titled Brit Cops: Law and Disorder and Brit Cops: War on Crime, respectively.
