I think (don't quote me on this) it depends on when they were acquired, and whether ITV or Fremantle or whoever the respective show belongs to start replacing endcaps and such by the time Challenge got them. I'm assuming it's the same reason why some episodes of Family Fortunes are still butchered, because they use the same copies from when Challenge wanted to squeeze more adverts into a half hour. But I would think if they were to acquire new copies of Bullseye now, you'll find the Central frontcaps have been removed, or at the very least, new ITV Studios logos at the end.
