Product Information

This logo is seen on original versions of season three (and possibly four) episodes of Pingu. As with the last logo, as the BBC kept using their own master prints well after the remastering for CBeebies, it was last seen on UK television in 2012. It can also be seen on many VHS tapes (mainly in the UK and Australia).

The show's international distribution rights were handled by Netherlands-based firm Editoy AG. Editoy was renamed to Pingu BV in 1996, and assumed its current name of The Pygos Group in 2001 after being acquired by a Texas-based firm called Joker, Inc., shortly before the company was bought out by British-based entertainment company HIT Entertainment.

Music/Sounds: The closing theme of the show, which is a slight rearrangement of some of the notes from the original intro sequence. Music/Sounds Variant: On the aforementioned Japanese VHS, the closing theme is not heard. Instead, Pingu's "Noot Noot" is heard a few seconds after the logo fades in, and a section of the song "SEEDS OF HAPPINESS" can be heard when the logo fades in (interestingly, that song was used during the montage).

Most international video releases use the next logo, and the remastered versions of course use the next logo as well.
