A colourful animated theme for Christmas in 1995 – trailers featured an aeroplane whizzing round a brightly decorated Christmas tree. The idents featured a glistening “1” in place of the treetop star. There were three versions; the first being longest. Alternate versions featured the plane with no fanfare, and no plane at all. Christmas idents were not used at Closedown in 1994. A year later, festive symbols played out the channel once more and Jayne Constantinis signs off on Christmas Eve.
