You also have the thing from around 1988/89 where the Thames copyright strap used to animate on screen letter by letter. Looks like it started to vanish after they lost their franchise, but there's still a few post-1992 examples, there was a single 1993 episode of The Bill that still had it (the episode Sean Macquire guest starred in just before he joined EastEnders- all the other 1993 episodes had it on the Thames/Yorkshire endcap), and Heroes of Comedy on Channel 4 still had it in 1998.
The original showings of Mr Bean had it too, but the strap's been removed since (I do remember it being left in one one epsiode when ITV3 showed it in the early 2010s though). And of course the original Tiger Television and Thames endcaps are long gone, replaced with various 00s Tiger Aspect ones, depending on when the copies were made (the awful "HD" cropped to 16:9 versions have one with an EndemolShine logo on).
