UKTV

1997-2001
The UKTV network was launched on November 1, 1997 when the UK Gold channel was accompanied by UK Style, UK Horizon and UK Arena.

UKTV's original graphic design was created by Lambie-Nairn and was very much based on the design that the BBC had adopted less than a month earlier. The similarities went down to details such as the font used (Gill Sans) and the layout of presentation slides.

 * Design Week: Lambie-Nairn branding for UKTV

2004-


On March 8, 2004, UKTV was relaunched once once again with all its channels changing the prefix in their name from "UK" to "UKTV" (i.e. UK Gold became UKTV Gold). The rebranding was done by Dunning Eley Jones, whose founders had worked on the network's previous identity.

Between 2007 and 2009, all UKTV channel were rebranded, this time being given individual names without reference to an umbrella brand.
