The 2016 style of opening titles launched with Episode 4466 (5th September 2016).

By 2016 the show was overdue for a presentation refresh. Part of a revamp of the show's identity resulted in a new geometric-inspired logo, tweaked theme music and a new presentation package. All title shots are brand new and shot on the show's sets as opposed to green screens with CGI environments. Many of the characters are performing actions similar to their previous green screen shots. The initial batch of shots were directed by Sean Glynn and motion graphics were again produced by Simon Cox.

The final episode to use this style of opening titles was Episode 5165 (10th May 2019).
