Another gem. The cardboard ads are always a joy, particularly for the likes of Supermac where my late mum shopped. As a child I always fancied myself as the next Joanne Woods or Barbara Palmer but that evidently wasn't to be 😄
The midweek racing on ITV was presented from Thames Television , Euston Road studios & they would have put on that theme tune, even horse racing from Yorkshire, Southern, Anglia or Granada would be presented to the network via Euston Road!
The Collaborators looks interesting, I'll have to see if that is available on TH-cam. I like that bell on ITV news after every upcoming segment. Watching from the U.S.
It's the chimes of Big Ben. When the News at Ten was first broadcast, footage of Big Ben was transmitted live over the opening titles. The sound engineer forgot to fade the OB sound down so the newsreader in the studio announced the News headlines to the chimes of Big Ben. This mistake turned out to be liked by producers who kept the chimes in for future broadcasts, turning it into a TV icon.
Must be one of Alastair Burnet's first news bulletins since returning from the BBC? Didn't realise he was back doing News at Ten so soon? Presumably just standing in for Reggie, Sandy or Leonard, as I think he was doing the 5:45 usually when he first rejoined?
Great to hear the elusive ITV Racing theme almost in full. I've been trying to find a copy of it for years. Another brilliant upload Mr Perry and team
"Craigavon, it's a better place" 😂😂😂. Incredible little slice of history.

I seem to remember reading they went to a different type of work away from TV, Barbara went to some form of nursing
How come the announcers still sounded very posh London Received Pronunciation on Irish TV?
Northern Irish
Brilliant to hear the ITV Racing theme
Woah - there was a Coal Advisory Service?!!!

Johanne Woods announcing at Havelock House.
With a very upmarket NI accent.

It’s good to see Australian Len Evans, one of our wine connoisseurs making an appearance on UKTV
also seems extremely sloshed while making his statement, lmao

Interesting that the abbreviation “UTV” was in use in the title of the programme “UTV Profile” as early as 1976.
'UTV Reports' from 1969 pre-dates this.
Some parts of the media (mainly Catholic ones) used the abbreviation right from the start.

Paul Lally - then a fairly recent YTV recruit - voices the Whicker trail.
Whicker was one of the longest serving travelling journalists but unfortunately we will miss him on British Television.
Stolen by Christopher Williams and made into one of his fake posts. He needs taking down and banned for life from TH-cam
Luke's Kingdom - what a load of crap that was
