Astley Baker Davies

Background
Astley Baker Davies is a British animation company founded by Neville Astley, Mark Baker and Phil Davies in January 1994. Its first global pre-school property is Peppa Pig in partnership with Nelvana. In 2015, they were acquired by Entertainment One.

(2002, May 31, 2004-)
Logo: On a black background, we see an oval with a sphere and a upside-down triangle shape inside. The oval spins a bit, while the company name wrapped around it appears, and the oval stops spinning.

Variants:
 * There is an in-credit variant, sometimes with a shadow.
 * A still version of this logo exists.
 * A variant with this logo (in black) in a rectangle with oval spinning is seen on the companies' website.
 * On Peppa Pig: My First Cinema Experience, the eOne logo spins to reveal the logo.
 * On the Peppa Pig pitch pilot from 2002, there is a prototype variant where the text is on the bottom with a different font, and a website URL is seen.
 * On current prints of The Big Knights, the shapes inside are replaced with silhouettes of Sir Morris and Sir Boris' helmets, and the text is replaced with "THE・BIG・KNIGHTS・LTD".

Technique: 2D animation.

Music/Sounds: Squeaking chair/door sounds when the oval spins, and a click when it stops spinning. Otherwise, the ending theme or none.

Music/Sounds Variant: On the 2002 pilot of Peppa Pig, the sounds are heard at the same time as the titular character's laugh.

Availability: Common. The in-credit version appears on Ben & Holly's Little Kingdom and Peppa Pig. The animated version can be spotted on DVDs of the aforementioned shows, such as the 2009 remaster of The Big Knights. That contains the still logo at the end of episodes, but other versions (including the original airings) use the BBC Worldwide logo.
