By Summer 2012, the 'Three World' generic end-boards on trailers are rarely used, and have been replaced either with a black background or programme-specific imagery. The 'search box' graphic is an addition from August 2012.

As BBC Three doesn't broadcast all day, holding slides are shown during its down time.
During the 2012 London Olympic Games, BBC Three broadcast 24 hours a day. On Freeview, this was achieved by re-allocating BBC Three's 7pm-onward bandwidth to an additional Red Button service on 302, and effectively closing BBC Parliament to use its 24 hour-a-day bandwidth for BBC Three.
From Thursday 26th July 2012 (before it commenced 24 hour programming on 27th July 2012), and for a short duration after programming had finished in the early hours of Monday 13th August 2012, this holding animation played out with continuous music.
