I'm guessing it was live.

Two regional versions of the BBC's See for Yourself reviews, both coming from the Midlands.

The first programme is a more general overview, with lots of behind-the-scenes footage (local radio, Telly Addicts, Daytime UK etc) while the second concentrates on equal opportunities and representation (and I'd ought to warn you, contains some offensive, discriminatory language at one point)

Did every region do this or just those with a network production centre attached?

I imagine there were a few combined editions along the English regions - Genome lists the 1991 edition for the ‘South and East’ (going behind the scenes of Look East and Radio Kent)

The nations probably did their own programmes.

IIRC, 1992 was the last year See For Yourself ran - the networked show that year was a ‘Biteback’ special (and pointedly, an indie production at that)

On the subject of See For Yourself, here’s an earlier national edition. I remember being very excited seeing the slow zoom in on the COW globe which led into the titles - about a minute in…

I presume they must have had to have done a full re-render of the COW to do this, unless the COW generator could be reconfigured to zoom in without losing resolution?

South & East was one of the big regional departments at the time - it was the equivalent of today's South East, London and East regions... so Brighton to The Wash. 

I'm not sure when it changed or what came next, a decade later the old South East region (along with South, West and South West) we're a big department called 'BBC South' managed from Bristol.

Which year was it where Sue Lawley had to interrupt an interview with the DG or Chairman to throw to a newsflash?

8th January 1989 - the night of the Kegworth plane crash.

The following year's edition featured a re-edit of Open Air's feature going behind the scenes of the Nine O'Clock News on the day Nigel Lawson resigned as chancellor.

Genome suggest there was also a similar regional programme in '89, again going out the night after the big networked show (Radio Times' synopsis for the South and East edition speaks of the "[color=#333e48][font=ReithSans, Arial, Helvetica, freesans, sans-serif]BBC's newest, biggest and perhaps most unwieldy region.")[/font][/color]
