Background

Rubber Duck Entertainment was formed in July 2005, as part of a split of its parent company Contender Entertainment Group. Rubber Duck functioned as the television division of the now holding company, and handled production and rights management for both TV and merchandise, while Contender Home Entertainment functioned as their home entertainment distributor.

After the rebranding of Contender as E1 UK (Entertainment One UK) in March 2009, Rubber Duck Entertainment was rebranded as E1 Kids.

(2005-2009)

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, season 1 of Ben & Holly's Little Kingdom and Humf, the logo is still and in-credit.

Technique: Flat-shaded CGI. None for the in-credit still variant.

Music/Sounds: An accordion, spoons, trumpets, and hiccupping 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:

This logo can be seen on 2005-2009 DVD releases of Peppa Pig.
It also appears on the Tractor Tom DVD releases "Buzz to the Rescue" (disc 2 only) and "Wheezy’s Wings".
The in-credit version appears on season 2 of Peppa Pig, the first half of the first season of Ben & Holly's Little Kingdom and Humf.
