2016: Sprout Boy, 06 December 2016-01 January 2017 2016 saw the BBC launch their festive idents with the story of Sprout Boy as "not the most loved Christmas vegetable". The short story is narrated by Peter Capaldi, as Sprout Boy goes all over to find someone to like him, until he stumbles upon a gathering of BBC all-star cast, as he is shown to be part of the group and is welcomed by all.

2017: Oneness 06 December 2016-01 January 2018  These idents consist of: a zoom-in clip of several men in a pub, whereby one of them reveals his Christmas jumper with a flashing Rudolph nose on it which becomes the "BBC One" ident, a clip with a grandfather falling asleep in his armchair and his head becoming the BBC One logo, a family seated around a table enjoying the Christmas meal with a person attempting to light a Christmas pudding with the BBC One logo forming in front of it and another with a red bauble being hung on a lit Christmas tree (which doubles up as the variant to introduce the news). The "Winning Weekend" variant - used on the weekend of 17 and 18 December - has a gold bauble being hung on a lit Christmas tree. All of these idents appear with snowflakes flying from them. For Christmas Day, a special set of "Oneness" idents were used to introduce all of the channel's afternoon and evening programmes. Was last used on New Years Day 2018, a January set of idents featuring stock videos and the Oneness tagline were used for much of January, but on 23 January, BBC One restored the regular circle idents,

2022: The Boy, The mole, The Fox and the Horse, A set of idents featuring characters from the Charlie Mackesy storybook, promoting its forthcoming animated adaptation, the daytime version showing the boy and the mole eating a Christmas pudding. Another is set at night, with the boy and the mole sitting on the tree while the fox and the horse come to them. The last version is set during the evening, with the titular characters walking on the river. As with the previous year, the lens did not appear in the set, though there are daytime, evening and night variations.
Initially, the 'River 2' ident was mainly used to introduce news bulletins and other serious programmes, but it was withdrawn from use on 12 December 2022, likely after being considered too insensitive following an incident at a lake in Solihull the previous day. Instead, the Kite ident from the normal idents was introduced in its place, This lasted for 3 days before this set of Christmas idents were scrapped, replaced with another repeat of 2016, 2018, 2020 and 2021's Sprout Boy idents, Write a blog post about the untimely end of the 2022 idents
