UK G²

2003–2004

UK G2

On November 12, 2003, UK Gold 2 was replaced by UK G². The visual identity was created by BBC Broadcast.

"UK G2 brings together a carefully chosen mix of comedy and drama that have a uniquely British sardonic view of the world and will feature repeats of hit comedies and dramas including Have I Got News For You, Room 101 and Spooks.
The channel identity reflects this, as it is based on the idea of "bending the rules." The identity for the new channel reflects the irreverent humour of its shows. Individual films observe people who should know better, mischievously flouting social convention and unexpectedly bending the rules." - BBC Broadcast press release

The tagline for the new channel was "the home of witty banter". The visual identity for the relaunched channel was created by Red Bee Media.
