Does anyone remember the shortlived Central animated endcap from 1988?

This is taken from Challenge airings of 1988 and 1989 episodes of both Bullseye and Family Fortunes, but it also used to be on the 1988 series of Blockbusters, as well as original 1989 airings of Huxley Pig (Season 1 only) and Bangers and Mash, and both Woof! and Press Gang (Season 1 only) as well. This also appears on God, The Universe and Everything Else (1988) as well, among many others.

Well it will do, because Central stuck it on everything they made at that time.  It's only remembered because it survives on the reruns of Family Fortunes and Bullseye (nobody would have remembered it on most other stuff and if Challenge/Carlton/ITV had hacked it off).

Pretty sure it probably ended up on a few home video/DVD releases too pending on which prints the distributor of said media were using.

Central were using that animated endcap as an ident as well:

Central actually re-edited the animated endcap onto some of their older programmes that were repeated between late 1988 and August 1989 (or in some cases, played it in live). I noticed the endcap on both new and repeated schools series shown on Channel 4. 

I believe animated endcaps were no longer allowed after the 1989 ITV rebrand - at least initially.
