This high quality version of the elaboarate Brookside logo does actually identify it as "A mersey television company", which seems strange in itself. I wonder if that has something to do with the "Brookside productions" listing:



The same logo also appeared on 80s VHS releases (with the "a mersey television company" tagline), and at this quality you can make out the Liverpool landmarks that are part of the logo too, which you can't make out easily on the endcap. The logo on the endcap is slightly different (mostly the font), though it stayed the same until 1999




The Hollyoaks logo that appeared at the end until 2006 also had the "A Mersey Television company" tagline.

Also noticed that a similar "MTV" logo to that that was used on the last year of Brookside appears in the 1987 and 1988 Brookside spin-offs Damon & Debbie and South (the latter of which rather bizzarely went out as part of ITV Schools), although that version looks like it's meant to be a stylised Liverpool skyline, the M being the Liver Building, I think the T is means to be St. John's Beacon, not sure about the V though, but it has what looks like a crown on it- maybe the Metropolitan cathedral?. The 2002 version doesn't have that.
