1st (known) Logo
(1989-1993)

Logo: A series of gray and white vertical lines are formed on the screen. They flip around a few times to show brief clips of some films from Pickwick's library (including a yacht race, boxing match, and even Thomas the Tank Engine). After that, "PICKWICK", in red italic letters, slides in letter-by-letter from the right. Then "Video" is written below in blue script and underlined in red. The words shine.
FX: The lines, the letters, and the shining.
Music/Sounds: A synthesized rock tune that sounds like something you'd hear on the then-Prevue Guide (now TV Guide Channel) around that time.
Availability: Seen on Pickwick videos from the UK around the time period.
Scare Factor: Low; the lines and the synth theme may bother some.
2nd Logo
(1993-????)

Logo: The camera travels through a curvy blue maze and drops down a strange hole, revealing several blue and purple copies of the maze. It then pans through the bottom-most area of the maze and reaches a yellow light coming out of another hole, then begins to travel upward through the hole and spins around a bit, eventually revealing the words "PICKWICK" (in blue, and in the same font as before) against a black BG.
FX: The CGI maze.
Music/Sounds: A dramatic tune sounding like something off an action film.
Availability: Seen on Pickwick videos from the UK around the time period.
Scare Factor: Low.
