The new idents commissioned after 1997 placed less emphasis on the use of the colour viridian and the bell/harp music. This was the last BBC Two logo to use the clock ident. The clock was edited in October 1997 with the new logo. The first clock ident was used in February until late 1991, the second was used in late 1991 until October 1997. The clock idents had been changed through years and were mainly used for closedowns and news.

A section of the TV programme How Do They Do That? that was broadcast on 15 February 1995 described how the graphics and sound of some of the idents were created.

The '888' legend was also phased out in July 1999, to be replaced with 'Subtitles' following the uptake in digital television and the increased use of the new BBC Text service. Following the 1997 rebrand, the BBC logo was changed, with the word TWO added after the logo at the bottom of the screen. This meant that subtitles were available to accompany the programme on Ceefax page 888. Another DOG often used with the look was a small '888' legend in the top right of the screen. The idents featured a sans-serif '2' in a variety of different forms and environments usually accompanied by an element of the colour viridian and accompanied by a static corporate logo DOG below the '2'. They replaced the 'Window on the World' idents and were broadcast until the evening of Wednesday 26 September 2018. The idents were taken out of service in November 2001, and were later revived on 21 June 2014 for "90s Night" and in July 2014, to commemorate the 50th birthday of BBC Two. The ident package was retained following the corporate rebrand of the BBC in October 1997 when a new logo and additional idents were introduced. The idents, which consisted of a sans-serif '2' in Gill Sans, accompanied by the colour viridian, were created by branding agency Lambie-Nairn (and later, Red Bee Media), who also created the Channel 4 logo. The BBC Two '1991–2001' idents were broadcast from 16 February 1991 until 19 November 2001, and again from 9 July 2014 until 26 September 2018, on BBC Two in the United Kingdom. This was also the last to be broadcast in Northern Ireland in 2018.
