(2005-2009)

Rubber Duck Entertainment (2005)

Logo: On a black background, we see a yellow rubber duck with the words "loved forever" on it in red on a teal square with rounded corners. The duck moves around, like it's swimming in water. The square widens to become a rectangle, and the words "RUBBER DUCK ENTERTAINMENT" fade in on it in white.

Variant: On Season 2 of Peppa Pig and Season 1 of Ben & Holly's Little Kingdom as well as on Humf, the logo is still and in-credit.

FX/SFX: The duck and the rectangle moving, and the words fading in.

Music/Sounds: An accordion, spoons, trumpets, and hiccuping sounds played to the tune of "Aquarela do Brasil" finishing off with a keyboard note followed by a quack sound.

Music/Sounds Variant: For the in-credit variant, the end theme of the show is used.

Availability: Can be seen on 2005-2009 DVDs of Peppa Pig. Also appears on the Tractor Tom DVDs Buzz to the Rescue (disc 2 only) and Wheezy’s Wings. The in-credit version appears on Season 2 of Peppa Pig, the first season of Ben & Holly's Little Kingdom and Humf.

Editor's Note: The music is a bit strange especially with the hiccupping, though it's meant to be funny.
