Channel 5 (Orange - Long) - Christmas 1997
For Channel 5's first Christmas in 1997, two festive idents were added to the channel each with longer and shorter variants for a total of four. The style of these was similar to the regular idents, just with the addition of lighting. The longer version of the 'orange' ident here, followed by a movie rating with festive background graphics matching the style in use on trailer endboards and next slides that year.

Initially at launch, Channel 5 was the first of the main terrestrial channels not to have a commercial service provided by Teletext Ltd, with BSkyB providing content instead. The service from December 1997 here still in the first year of the channel remains very similar to how it had been from launch, just with some tweaked festive graphics on the main index page. With it being the end of the year, news focuses heavily on New Years Honours too. The ancillary service for 5 can also be found in the 500s, although visually there was a lot less distinction between the commercial and ancillary services in the BSkyB days of the service.

Channel 5 (Promo) - Christmas 1997
A Christmas 1997 Channel 5 promo, with a slight twist. Ever ones for getting their money's worth in the early years this trailer had actually originally aired as part of the pre-launch build up for Channel 5 in March 1997 for their one off and less-than-critically-acclaimed medical comedy 'Hospital'. Here, as part of their New Year 1997/1998 programming, they repeat not only that show but use the exact same trailer from before launch just with the endboard updated to add in festive graphics and a new date. Even the TV shot in the middle still shows shots of from the original extended pre-launch 'swinging TV' promo for the channel.

FilmFour (Big Brother Promo) - 2000
In the early days of Big Brother airing in the UK on Channel 4, the station were keen to lean on the success wherever possible. Here a somewhat tenuously-linked promotion for their then-subscription channel FilmFour, bringing in both the familiar show theme and the voice of Marcus Bentley, who became synonymous with the programme over its years on the air. As well as featuring housemates giving their views and providing links on some films to feature as part of a special 'Double Take' event.
